James f. Haley, state bullion tax
collector of Nevada, has filed with
Acting Governor Dickerson a report
showing that the mines of Nevada
have in the past six months produced
more than $2,O0O,000 and that out
of this amount the state has received
in bullion tax only $45, 1885. AS
a result of this Acting Governor
d. s. Dickerson has brought to the
attention of the attorney general the
fact that all of the mines are not
paying to the state all the taxes they
should and has instructed him to
notify all district attorneys in the
state to force all mines to pay to the
state the amount of taxes they should
pay according to law.
He has also instructed the attor-
ney general to close up alleged lot
teries now being operated in Esmer-
aida county, according to the report
of the state bullion tax collector, and
to see that all gambling resorts in
the state pay their just proportion OF
taxes. He has further ordered that
the attorney general investigate GER
tain alleged prizefghts that have
been held in the state as amateur
events, when in fact they were pro-
fessional bouts and subject to IL
cense
Mr.. Haley's report is very complete
and in it he tells of the condition OF
every county in the state. 1t is the
most thorough report ever filed by
a state bullion tax collector in Ne
vada, and by it Mr.. Haley shows thai
he is doing great deal of good IN
the state and that he is performing
his duties in very thorough and
capable manner.
Mr.. Haley states that he is unable
to say lust what action Acting GOV
ernor Dickerson has taken in regart
to his report, but it is understood
that the acting governor will carry
out all of Mr.. Haley's recommends
tons.

was made of high grade that was
valued at 800 a pound. All the

work and several are running tun-
