ASSISTANT FOR ASSESSOR.


The grand jury recommends that
the county commissioners have pre-
pared at once maps of the several
towns and other property in the coun-
ty showing the location and the
names of the owners of the proper
ties for use in the assessors Office;
that the county commissioners APP
point committee of five good citi-
zens and taxpayers of the county to
select a competent assistant to the
assessor to be employed during the
assessing season, said assistant to be
appointed by Mr.. House on the rec
ommendation of the committee of
five, and said assistant to be paid by
compensation.
OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS.
1t has come to the knowledge of
this jury that houses of i'll repute
are conducted within the prescribed
limits of the public schools and we
recommend that the city attorney and
city marshal take steps to have said
apart for them.
We recommend to the police de-
partment, sheriff's Office and consta-
bles to see that all Indians are out
of the towns from sunset to sunrise
in all the towns in the county.
We request the Nevada Northern
Railroad company to repair improve
and perfect all railroad crossings on
its lines at all points where travel
crosses its lines.
The county commissioners are re-
specially requested to require mi |
gratory stockmen to pay all damages
for the repairs on roads that may be
damaged by their flocks and herds.
We are informed that resident |
stockmen are willing to pay for the
damage done when SO requested by
the board.
In view of the fact that the county |
funds are deposited in the vaults at |
the court house and that said funds |
are guarded at great expense to the
that this jury is of the opin-
ion that the countys interest would |
be better subserved by making a spe-
cial deposit of the fund in the banks
Of Ely and we would earnestly recon-
mend that change be made.
While we commend Treasurer
Miles for his zeal as custodian of the
strong box, we are of the
opinion that it would be wiser and
more satisfactory to the people of the
county generally If they knew their
money was on special deposit in
stronger vaults and safes than the
county Is possessed of.
Respectfully submitted,
II. A. COMINS, Foreman.
