SoHdl property ana poll tax on the
first Monday of December in accord
ance with law, it will be a clear and
concise report and satisfactory to the
citizens of this county We especially
commend the system of bookkeeping
and the manner of keeping them en-
ployed by the sheriff's office.
Since our empanelment by this
honorable court our attention has
been especially called through the Of
flee of the district attorney and
through the complaint made by a
citizen and taxpayer of this county.
to the violation of section 1882 Of
the compiled laws, being section 10
OF an act to provide revenue for the
support of the government of the
state of Nevada, approved March %
1891, which section provides that on
the first Monday of each month the
assessor shall pay over to the county
treasurer all moneys in his posses
sion, collected as poll tax, and take
duplicate receipts therefor.
Our attention has also been called
through the sources mentioned above
to the violation of section 1163 he
ing law requiring the assessor to
pay over to the county treasurer on
the first Monday of each month all
money in his hands from the collec-
tlon or taxes on the assessment roll.
The charges as made being based
upon what is unquestionably the sta
tute law of this state furnished for
us matter for the most serious. can.
tious and careful consideration. and
we beg leave to submit in that re-
spect that we have probed this mat
ter as thoroughly as is possible. and
IN making and signing this report we
neg leave to say we do so conscien-
tlously, and with no other view than
to apprise this court and the people
OF Nye county of our findings in this
respect after the most careful and
conscientious examination.
With reference to the violation of
that law which requires the sheriff
as assessor to pay over to the county
treasurer all money in his hands col
lected as poll tax on the first Mon
day OF each month, we beg leave to
submit our finding; that, in order
that the poll tax be properly collect
ed, 1t is necessary that poll tax books
be left at the Offices of the large con-
Germs employing great numbers OF
| men, in the various sections of our
county and in some instances it is
even necessary to place those books
in other states and at these respective
places the poll tax is collected by the
auditors and bookkeepers, having
charge of these various concerns, and
they in turn, as a matter of conyen-
ience to themselves make remittance
in full to the sheriff at the end of
each tax collecting period and re-
turn Herewith all unused poll tax
receipts, and We learn by careful in
quiry that for the sheriff-assessor to
call in these poll tax books at the end
OF each month in order TO comply
with the law would be working an
