SALARIES ARE INCREASED.
Bills Are Made Effective by Signature
of Governor.

Governor 0ddie this week signed
the bills introduced by Assemblyman
Fulmer raising the salaries of the
treasurer, district attorney and con-
stable of White Pine county. The
raise means the increase of the sal
ary of Treasurer Carpenter to $500
year; that of District Attorney Nc
Fadden to $500 year, and that of
Constable Dave Mclean to $3.50 per
month.
The increase of the salaries will
meet with the general approval of
the people of the county for not only
are the incumbents entitled to it, but
the Offices themselves call for it. For
merly the Office of district attorney
paid the meager salary of 500 a
month; that of the treasurer, $50.
and the Office of constable was one of
fees. With regard to the latter Dave
Mclean furnished his own horse and
buggy. He will continue To do this,
turning over the fees to the county.

FIRST HALF Of LEGISLATIVE.
SESSION IS NOW HISTORY.
Nearly Two Hundred Bills Have Been introduced
In the Two Houses Since COnvenine the Larger
Number Of Which Are Yet to Receive Attention

all the features of the original Full
mer bill with the exception that the
power of regulating prices is put in
the hands of the Railroad Commits
sion and not given to the county COM
missioners and city councils, as was
prescribed in the Fulmer measure.
Piercy of Nye introduced a mea-
sure making 1t unlawful for any firm,
company or corporation to charge or
demand any money upon the promise
of hiring or retaining any person In
any employment This act is said to
tice of persons in control of proper
ties making their employees pay so
much for holding their positions.
A bill was passed in both houses
authorizing the governor to offer
reward of $4,000 for the capture of
the murderer of the cattlemen who
were killed in this state a couple OF
weeks ago.
Charles Norcross, private secretary
to Governor Oddie, and Surveyor
General Deadly addressed the assemb-
ly Wednesday afternoon in the inter-
est of Wilson's substitute to Bill 50,
which has for its object the creation
and establishing of a Nevada bureau
of industry, agriculture and irriga-
tion; provinding for a commission in
charge thereof; creating the Offices
of commissioner and associate COM

poses, repeating the act establishing

ing thereto, which was recon-
mended by Governor Oddie in his
message. The measure will unques-
tionably become law. as 1t is one of

the addresses of Messrs. Norcross
and Deadly.
President Stubb of the University
of Nevada addressed the members of
both branches in the assembly cham
bers on the same afternoon on behalf
of the appropriations asked for the
university.
Stickney of Lyon introduced a
measure to consolidate the counties
of Story, Douglas and Ormsby but it
is not thought this bill will be taken
seriously, as it generally supposed to
have been introduced to counteraet
the proposed annexation of a part of
Lyon county to that of Ormsby.
The desk of the late Senator House
of White Pine county is draped in
mourning and through a resolution
of the senate, fresh flowers will be

SINKING OPERATIONS
WILL Be CONTINUED
ELY CONSOLIDATED MAKING
GOOD PROGRESS IN ZACK
SHAFT-AAl CALL ASSESS
MENT If OTHER PLANS FAIL.

Sinking has been suspended tenn
porarily in the Zack shaft of the Ely
Consolidated, work there being con-
fined to running the crosscut out
from the 500-foot level to reach the
ore body which was exploited at the
400-foot level of the shaft. Presi-
dent SIN. Levy of the Ely Consolida-
ted was here during the week and
after an inspection of the workings
pronunced himself we'll satisfied with
the progress that has been made and
said that he was anious to resume
sinking as soon as possible. The
crosscut is out so feet and connection
should soon be made with the rich
ore body.
Financially, according to the presi-
dent, the companyis sufficiently equip
ped for present needs and a move is
on foot to put the finances in better
shape. If hese plans fall through
1t is likely that an assessment will be
levied for the purpose of carrying out
the development which the company
has planned. The assessment will
probably be five cents share. Up to
date three assessments have been
paid on the stock of the Ely Consoli-
dated, one for two cents, a second for
three and the last for five.

CHARGES UNFAIR DEALINGS.
J. III. McMurray Asks That Suit Be
Instituted Against II. c. Herrick.

The troubles of the Herrick- KERN
Investment company are still being
aired in court and during the week
J. H. McMurray in his answer to the
petition of Receiver Herman Wise,
makes serious charges against his
partner Herrick. 1t is claimed by
McMurray that Herrick, while presi-
dent of the company, returned an op-
tion to NJ. C. Lewis of Moscow. Ida
no, on the Bunker Hill Sullivan
group of claims in the Granite dis
trict for the purpose of cheating and
defrauding the investment company
1t Is set forth that Herrick secured
the option on the representation that
cago parties, and that he left for
Chicago in last November for that
ostensible purpose.
1t Is further claimed that Herrick,
with the eonnivance of Lewis, con-
spired to cheat the investment COM
pany out of its interest in the option;
that the latter endorsed the cancella-
tion of certain portions of the option
giving no consideration for his release
from his obligations. Herrick, 1t is
set forth. has publicly stated that the
contract has been cancelled, this with
the purpose in view of preventing
any disposition of the agreement.
Further 1t is claimed that in accord
ance with the agreement with Lewis
by the investment company there
were paid into the Ely National
Bank on Dec. II. 1910, 1920 inter-
est to the credit of Lewis.
McMurray asks that the receiver
be instructed by the district court to
commence proceedings against Her.
rick and Lewis for their alleged
fraudulent action and the resultant
injury sustained by the Herrick-
KERN Investment company.

great saving to us.
1t is expected that Giroux will be
producing high grade direct smelling
ore within the next three or four
months, and we are now negotiating
with the railways for reasonable

until such time as the smelling
proposition is fully solved to the best
