Deputies Complete Their Tedious Work After Working Like Beavers
 Earliest Settlement in the His- tory of Jefferson County.
! SAt'E Eq

Sheriff c. M. Philpot will make his annual settlement with the state treasurer at Little Rock the coming week. His efficient corps of assistants completed their work yesterday. made their final addi- tions and submitted their lists to County Clerk Jesse R. Core. Dep uty County Clerk Curran Nichol has also completed his tax totals and as soon as his list is made up, which will be Monday, the settle ment of the county finances win be made at the capital.
 The final recapitulations of Sheriff Philpot show the collections for 1906 to be $260,539.90, or an increase of $45,034.72 over those. of 1905. A similar increase is shown in this years collections in all of the different funds, including county general, city, school and levee. For the year just closed $3,O21.71 was collected as inter est on rilroad. bonds and $34, 836.54 as three-mill road tax In 1905 no levy was made in the latter two.
 The completion of the collectors lists this year is the earliest ever made in the sheriff's office here, it is said. Deputies John Alexander. George Lindsay, Will Miller and E. E. Jones worked like beavers the past several months in the sheriff's office receiving and listing taxes and making totals each day. They have worked constantly since the tax books were closed to complete their work and their efforts have been rewarded with one of the best reports and earliest final statements ever made there. Deputy Curran Nichol and Assistant Deputy Alex Barrow in the county clerks off1cc have also accomplished much good work and the annual statement or the county clerk is ready as a result.

To reinforce its demand for lower

by its publicity committee has com.
piled some comparison of the charges
from Chicago to the coast and from
Reno to Nevada points. The infor.
nation is Of startling character, as
the figures show discrimination not

other Nevada points. They form an
object lesson in the conduct of the
railways towards this state.
