NEW YORK EXECUTIVE GAINS STEADILY IN HIS BATTLE
 FOR LIFE.
ASSASSiN'S LIFE HISTORY
Gallagher Makes Statement for News papers, Covering Various Events in His Career-Says He
 Has No Family.

Hoboken, N. J., Aug. 13.-Gaining steadily in his battle for life, Mayor Gaynor Is surprising even the more optimistic of his physicians and, un- less complications develop, he will soon be able to undergo an operation for the removal of the bullet that was fired into his neck Tuesday by James J. Gallagher.
 Wound of Most Dangerous Kind.
 Though the mayors condition is closely watched for symptoms of blood poisoning, and other complica- tions, the doctors continue their asser- tion his progress is favorable.
 According to gunshot specialists, such a wound Is of the most danger ous kind, because of the difficulty in preventing blood poisoning. It Is practically impossible to keep it clean, and, if no i'll results follow, 1t Is large ly result of accident.
 The usual course of treatment Is to let the wound alone, in the hope the mucous membrane will grow over it, forming protection. This would make it necessary to operate from the other entrance of the wound.
 Gallagher Makes a Statement.
 New York, Aug. 13.-James J. Gal lagher wrote brief statement of his life for the newspapers, as follows:
 T, James J. Gallagher, was born in Jrolond in tba toup of palfa9t County Antrim or Down, in 1852. Went to National school.

AMENDMENT DEMONSTRATION

j e l.
Voters at the coming general
election will either adopt or rejec,
a proposed amendment to the Con
stitution Of Nevada relating to the
disposition Of moneys received
from poll taxes. The proposed
amendment, having been passed at
two sessions of the Legislature.
will be submitted to the people at
the coming election.
It is proposed to amend Section
z of Article II of the State Con-
stitution to read as follows:
Section Z The Legislature
shall provide by law for the pay
ment of an annual poll tax of not
less than two nor exceeding four
dollars On each, male resident of
the State between the ages of
TWEEN ty5one and sixty years (un-
civilized American Indians ex-
cepted), to be expended for the
maintenance and. baAterment:of the
puhAs rosds." s: - :
:s5.sFhe present Fading. of the sec.
tion of the ConS tution which it is
prob6sed&to amend is as follows:,,
"Sec. z. The Legislature shall
proved by law for the payment of
an annual poll tax Of not less than
two; nor exceeding four dollars
for each male person resident in
the State, between the ages of
twenty-one and sixty years (uncivi-
lied American Indians excepted),
one-half to be applied for State
aid, one half for county purposes;
and the Legislature may. in it's
discretion. make such payment q
condition to the right of voting"
AS Jill be seen the amendment re-
lates to. the disposition of the
moneys derived from the poll tax.
This money is now apportioned
one-half for State and one-nalf for
county purposes. but if the con-
stitutional amendment is adopted
all the poll fay revenue will be
used for road, purposes The
amendment also takes away from
the Legislatureothe, ower.of max
ing the payment of the poll tax a
condition to the right to vote. 2
The amendment will increase
the money availeble for improy ing
the, public fxoads and it should
pass. Don't:.o4erIook it when you
