secure its complaints II those already
sworn Out are not served promptly.
IL will be remembered that the supreme
court recently rendered a decision. sweep
ing in its character. which upheld the IL
cense ordinances. and for this very rea-
son the assessor has seen fit to redouble
his efforts to collect from delinquents.
The only matter in this connection that
the council has under consideration is the
telephone license problem, and this has
been delayed so many times that il seems
evident that 10 action win ever be taken
by that body. The assessor has sat
quietly by and seen the companies and
the license committee postpone action
from time 20 time until he has grown
tired and both companies will be brought
into court if a satisfactory settlement is
not made soon.

Dinlnny a Patriot.
II develops in this connection that III.
J. Dinlnny. city attorney. is siding IN with
the patriots In the council and feels as
they do regarding the strictness with
which the license ordinances have been
enforced. Like Councilman Black ana his
crowd, Mr. Dininny believes that more
leniency should be exercised, and his be-
lief has already been shown by his ac-
tiOns. or rather lack Of action.
On Saturday last Goldman sWOre out
complaints for twenty merchants charged
with violating the law by refusing to pay
their license. Among these was the Salt
Lake Hardware company, where Council
Aran Black is employed as head Of the
harness department
Complaints Not Served.
Edgar A. Rogers. city prosecutor in the
police court, drew up the complaints and
they have been presumably in his posses
sion ever since. No attempt has been
made 10 serve them, and II is generally
known that Dininny is determined 10 do
all no can 10 delay the service and keep
those charged with failing TO obey the
law out Of court.
Mayor BransfOrd fully realizes the sit
uatiOn and he is also aware OF the fact
that Diniuny does not believe that he is
a first-class. dyed-in-the-wool patriot.
When the veto of the Kennedy bill was
before the council the mayor did not con-
suit the city attorney concerning the
matter, and the latter took occasion TO
write letter Ostensibly to President Da-
Wis of the council and at his oral request

Dlninny Not Consulted.

Since this incident. and even before IT,
the mayor has consulted Mr.. Dininny but
little, and the latter is somewhat disgrun-

ANSN Err FILED.

Answer in the action of the state
OF Nevada vs.. Consolidated Copper
Co. for delinquent taxes for 1907,
was flled yesterday with the county
clerk. Its chief allegation is viola
ion of the assessment law in plac-
ing two pieces of property on the as
sessment roll as one. 1t further de-
elares that money to pay the assess
ment on one-half the property was
rendered and refused. The proper
les are the Comins and Shallenger
or Shalienbarger ranch. In the
month of December. 1907. it Is al
legged that the manager of the com
pang rendered to the county treas
urer $3.50, one-half the assessment
due against the Comins property.
This was refused by the treasurer on
the ground that the property was not
separately asses sed and he therefore
could not ACCEPT part without vio-
iating the assessment laws. It shows
that the properties were separately
purchased and should be separately
assessed. The answer therefore asks
that the action be dismissed and costs
be assessed to the plaintiff and for
such further remedy as may be Deem
ed just by the court.

INTEREST IN CONVENTION.

Great interest was felt all over the
district yesterday in the outcome of
the Republican national convention
which is in session at Chicago.
Speculation as to the candidate who
would be chosen to represent the par
ty in the race for presidency was
generally shortliyed, the consensus
of opinion seeming to be that Taft
would be the nominee on the first
ballot. A few ardent Roosevelt men
would not believe, however, that
there was anyone else in the field
except their favorite and it was hard
to convince them that he had stated
time and again that he would not
accept the nomination

MYSTERIOUS SHOT.

Considerable mystery surrounds
the firing of a shot which seemed to
come from the alley between Aut-
man and Lyons avenue Monday night
about 11:43. Although the officers
and number of citizens searched
the alley from end to end and ques-
toned everyone closely. there was
nothing determined. Much excite
ment was caused by the firing of the
shot, as it was thought there had
been trouble between two men in the
city, both of whom had been drink
ing and making threats.

LOST HIS TICKET.

A story Is told on a local young
man in connection with the dance at
Star Pointer Monday night He had
been seated opposite young woman
for some time and all the way had
been teasing her as the train was on
the run from Ely to the Flat. Sud-
denly, in a spirit of jest, he handed
her his ticket with the Injunction
that she was to hold 1t for him until
the conductor came around. She
took the ticket but instead of holding
it quietly threw it through the open
window and it was up to the young
man to pay or walk. He paid

We have the incentive and it is as

There is no use to thrash over the
