State Agent Haley's Caustic Report

The annual report of J. F. Haley, State License and Bullion
Tax Agent, was submitted to 4 Governor Denver S. Dckerson last
week. The report is about 100000 words in length, and the most
important feature, perhaps, is that in which Haley brings out the
fact that between 1000 and 5000 mining claims in Nevada have not
been paying taxes as provided by law, which places a valuation OF
$500 on each patented property. This is due to the fact that these
mining claims are not recorded in the counties where located, though
of official record with the Government
The remedy given by Haley is to place means at the disposal
OF his Office to consult with the Government officials, procure
names, location, ETC., of the patented mining claims and forward
them to the different County Assessors in Nevada
As a result of the previous report of Haley in regard to the
non-payment of taxes in certain counties, by Wells, Fargo d Com
pany, that company is now paying a license or tax in every county
in Nevada. Lotteries have been suppressed throughout the State
and the enforcement of the cigarette license law has resulted in
itself in bringing in sufficient revenue to more than meet all ex-
penses of his office.
In his report To the Governor Mr. Haley hands a gentle roast
to Attorney General Stoddard, for not supporting him in his work.
at is a notorious fact" remarks MI. Haley in his report, "that
the prize fight law is being openly violated. : The charge is
being made that the promoters of these professional fights have
"fxed things" with those supposed to have power to suppress them.
Whether or not these charges n true, the fact remains that the
fights are held, and SO long as the suspicion of public graft can be
entertained, this law, in my opinion, should be repealed or so
amended that amateur fights can be rightfully protected Graft
would be then impossible and the State would receive $1,000 from
every professional prize fight held in the State"

Ely Mining Record A number of the weekly newspapers of the
State are requesting the Legislature to amend the law which requires
all foreign companies to print their annual statements in some daily
newspaper published within the State. Many counties in the State
have no daily newspapers, which necessitates that companies
operating there must have their statements printed in papers pub
lshed in some other portions of the State, publications not cir
culated in the counties in which the companies are doing business
The law is certainly unfair to publishers of weekly newspapers, and
it is also unjust to the companies as it compels them to patronize a
oily instead of a weekly newspaper The law ought to be amended.

society sold by the Vermont Bible So
ciety at cost The price is phenomenally
low. Ea Oh one of the Gospels can be pur-
chased FOR two cents. copy OF the New
Testament for six cents. and the entire
Bible for II cents. Large numbers are
donated to the destitute each year. These
are donated to individuals. families, mis-
sion churches, penal and charitable in
sttutions.
Since the society is INSTRUMENTATION
it does a work which the churches can
not do. Congresationalists, MethoGists,
Presbyterians. Baptists and Free Bap-
lists are on its board of directors, and
representatives from other denominations
would receive welcome. The value of
/ the work done by the society Is well illus
trated by the canvas recently made by
it's colporteur in Franklin county. The
| people In this county rank we'll with
