LYON COUNTY FALLS
HEIR TO BACK REVENUE
kevada's Great Mining Future

There are 161 mining camps regu-
larly formed in this state, of which
about half have made records or are
making them. According to the care
tul figures of Captain J. B. Menardi,
in the Reno Journal, the total pro-
duction of all the great camps of Ne
vada since discovery has been close
to billion dollars.
A glance at the figures in the
captains map will show to some ex-
tent what may yet be expected from
these producing centers, although
by no means exhausting the resourc-
es of the state, for many new camps
and districts are ust coming iEko
the shipping class and there is always
the hope that some time an enlight..
ened admiration may be in power in
national affairs that will restore silver
to it's rights.
The Comstock has turned out s475,-
100000. In another year conditions
will be such that the lower levels will
be approachable and there is not a
man who is familiar with the old
lode, who does not earnestly believe
that another bonanza will then be
revealed. 1t is known that rich veins
are down in those depths. How rich? :?
That is the gamble of it to the stock
speculator, but none of the miners
who have gone through the workings
in their daily labors regards it as
gamble. All the men are certain
that dividends galore are yet forth
coming from those mines.
Goldfield and Tonopah have so far
produced over s3O,OO0,OOO. With the

BULLION COLLECTOR
HALEY INVESTIGATING
Claims That Output F rom Adams
Gypum Plant Should be Taxed
Under State Bullion Tax Law

is in no wise to blame for the ex-
listing conditions and it is simply in
depreciation of the law that has
brought this matter about No blame
can be attached to anyone. 1t is now
up 10 the state and county officials
to see that this revenue is forthcom-
ing"
Mr. Haley also discovered the fact
that the houses of i'll repute in this
city were dealing in liquors without
license and the attention of this
state of affairs was also called to
the proper officials. This will also
mean an additional amount of reve-
nue. to be derived by the state, county
and city
Mr.. Haley understood that the re-
Venue would be derived by Ormsby
County but later investigation has
disclosed the fact that the mines are
located in Lyon county and othis
coun the result of the investigation
will prove a big boost financially.
The officials of that county will prob
ably be instructed to take up the
matter at an early date.

LOST HIS MEMORY

RENO, July 31-Struck on the
head by an unidentified assailant, Ed
win Pollock, a well-to dc mining man,
regained consciousness at the police
station yesterday, but could not re-
member his full name Or any events
in his life previous to the assault
Later he declared in answer to an
inquiry that he was millionaire and
a relative of Astor. He said he had
never been in Reno before the in
jury.
The City Receiving Hospital attend
ants believe that Polock'c brain was
affected by the blow, bu- say he will
eventually recover. Pollock was found
covered with blood in Center Street
late last night.

known conditions in those mines i,
is safe to figure on their attain
ing to a total production of 100000,
900 within fifteen years, judging Ell
tirely by what the present develop
ment has revealed
Candelaria, which turned out $40,
100000 in its day, has been work
ed out, while other camps are about
to be developed along new lines. The
old, wasteful method of doing bust
ness is to be done away with and
new processes will get out Of the
earth profits that in the early days OF
Nevada would have been impossible
Low grade propositions can be reck-
oned upon as dividend payers, we be-
lieve that in the early days of Ne
vada would have been impossible
Low grade propositions can he reck-
oned upon as dividend payers, we be-
lieve, in year or so. Many of these
mines, it should be sa.d, are now
controlled by interests that are de-
veloping properties elsewhere and
must await their turn.
We do not know that in the next
half century if its existence Nevada
will produce another billion of dol
lars, but the improvements in the
science of mining considered, it is by
no means an improbability, the min
ing properties, however, of new sourc-
es of mineral wealth being discov-
unquestionable truth that Nevada will
rank as the greatest mining state of
the Union for a century to come

Bullion Collector and Tax Agent
Haley who has been spending tha
past couple of days in this city Ca
official business Is certainly proving
himself to be the kind of Official tiat
Is needed II the Office which he nolds.
In going over the books showing
the revenues derived in Ormsby
County from different sources he, I'M
covered several things that will mean
an increase in the money derived by
this and Lyon county.
Most prominent among them is the
fact that the Empire Gypsum COM
pany operated by Ex-Governor Adams
of this city has never paid into the
county treasury or into the State any
fees for the production OF the mineral
which production according to Mr..
Haley's Interpretation of the law
should be classed along with the
bullion production of the state and
The regular bullion tax on the net
receipts of the output should be paid.
Mr.. Haley took the matter up with
the state officials and they In turn
looked at II In the same light as he
did and ordered him 10 proceed to
collect the revenue in the future and
also to gain admitance to the books
OF the company for the purpose of
fading out the amount of revenue
due from past production and to col
lest the same.
This same ruling of the tax collec-
tor applies to the product Of the Reg
an Gypsum company in Lyon county
and the Gardner Lime Kiln in this
county
Mr.. Haley called on Mr.. Adams
but the latter refused to allow him
to examine the books of the company
and also refuses to pay any revenue
on ais product which he says Goes not
other cases he was informed that
the books of the companies would
lie open to him and that they would
willingly pay the tax.
Mr.. Haley took the Adams matter
up with the attorney general and the
! latter will look up the law relative
ion Is necessary.
This ruling Of Mr.. Haleys wills
mean a good deal of additional reve,
nue. to Lyon County and the State
of Nevada owing to the fact that for
the past seven or eight years, the
gypsum plant of Mr.. Adams has been
in constant operation in that county.
In speaking OF the matter this
afternoon Mr.. Haley said:
Il have today presented the facts
in the case to the Attorney General
of the State and also to District At
torney Roberts of Ormsby county and
under the act creating my office have
instructed them to begin proceedings
against Mr.. Adams on the grounds
that he refuses to allow me to in
spect the books Of his company. Un-
der the law this means arrest and
II conviction follows fine Of $500
or six months In the county jail or
both such fine and Imprisonment. In
both cases the officials have assured
me that they will Immediately take
the matter up.
II estimate that the minimum pro-
duction Of the Adams plant has been
100000 the year, net, and this esti-
mate would mean revenue to the
amount OF $4,000 to be divided among
the state and Lyon county: $4,000
going to the state and $14,700 to
Lyon County.

HOUSE HIDES SCANDAL
BY USE OF GAG RULE

Now that the Democratic hlibuster In
the House has resulted in the shutting
off Of general debate, the Republican
leaders have decided that this is an
opportune time to push the naval appro-
urfation bill through, in order to prevent
talk about the submarine scandal. The
dipiomatic appropriation bill was to have
come up Immediately after the passage
Of the District of Columbia appropria-
ton bill, now being considered, but the
diplomats have been shunted.
The leaders care little whether two
battleships or four are authorized by the
bin. so long as there is little said about
+be reduction by the Naval Committee
OF the number recommended by the
President and the purchase of sub
marines instead OF battleships. They
fear that the airing Of this subject on
The floor would be used by the Demo-
Gratis for campaign purposes to show the
scandal in Congress.
