New Apportionment of School Moneys

Many inquiries have been received relative to the apportion-
ment of State school money under the new law which has just pass
ed the Legislature, and for the benefit of those who ire not familiar
with the bill a few facts are given below from a statement issued
from the Office of the State Superintendent of Schools.
The bill provides that the State money be apportoned direct
ly to the school districts instead of apportioning to the county and
then to the district. 1t will distribute 70 per cent of the State
money to the teachers of the State, basing the number of children
for a teacher at 80 instead of rs as in the past. This will allow a
teacher in the State the same amount, whether in one county or
another, and provides for 600 teachers in the State. The teachers
in the towns of the State are actually teaching over 80 children,
but the new apportionment is not considered unfair to them, and
provides many possibilities for the small country schools that are
now impossible by the lack of State funds apporioned to such
schools under the present system. Thirty per cent of the State
fund will be distributed among children uniformly all over the State.
To illustrate how the new apportonment works practically, II
the money on January l of this year had been placed under the
new plan Storey County would have received $3895.52, instead OF
S465l42, being a loss Other counties to lose are Esmeralda,
Ormsby, Washoe. Douglas, while the balance Of the counties gain,
some largely and others slightly, Elko being the largest beneficiary
under the plan. Under the new apportionment the effect on the
large towns means a reduction in a majority OF cases, the bill being
designed apparently to help the weaker. Under the plan Virginia
City will receive from each apportionment the sum OF s2766.So, In
stead of 1885, 70 under the old order of things. Gold Hill will receive
$1,000 6 instead of $1165.4S, Reno loses over $4,000, Sparks $500,
Goldfeld $500; Tonopah gains, as does Winnemucca, Elko, Love-
lock, Eureka and ether places The new plan gives equal amounts
from the State money to all schools of the same size regardless OF
location, and there is o falling off in all counties for the amount
that will go to the 25-pupil schools.

The New Banking Law
Act Takes All Nevada's Insolvent Banks Out of the Juris.
diction of the Courts, Placing Them Under the Con-
troll of the State Banking Board For Liquidation

By last Saturdays mail copies of the new banking bill passed
during the closing days of the Legislature we're received in Eu-
reka and discussed generally by the people here. On Monday fore
noon a dispatch was received in Eureka from Carson which stated
that an effort was being made there to influence the Governor to
veto the measure on the grounds that the proposed law would be
detrimental to the interests of the depositors of the Eureka County
Bank. This information caused no little excitement here, and
shortly after the receipt of the telegram a petition was circulated
among the depositors and Is names secured, which represented a
sum aggregating about $4,000 of deposits. This petition was for
warded to the Governor with the statement that the signers we're in
favor of the new law, and requesting him to sign it. 1t was also
stated that if it was necessary, additional names of depostors
could be secured.
A telegram was received in Eureka early Thursday morning
stating that Governor Oddie had signed the bill the day previous,
Wednesday, March %.
While the measure has not been generally read by the people
here, from what can be learned quite a majority are favorably i'm
pressed with the new law.
AS far as the SENTINEL has been able to learn the press of the
State approves of the measure, especially the newspapers of Tono-
ph and Carson.
Although the new law affects all banks in the State now in the
hands of receivers, of which the Eureka County Bank is one, still
that institution, it is thought, cut but little figure in the enactment
of the new measure. 1t was, in fact, framed to reach the Nye and
Ormsby County Bank and the State Bank and Trust Company,
which failed for about 5 100000, and whose affairs since going
into the hands of the receivers have been handled in a very unsatis-
factory manner.
While the original bill contains some 80 pages of printed mat
ter, which prescribe forms, penalties, etc, the amendment to the
new banking law, in fact, contains the essence of the measure, and
is al follows:

According to the proceedings OF the
last days session Of the Legislature 1t Is
learned that in the Assembly a bill maxi
ing a change in the salaries Of the officers
OF Eureka County was in the possession
OF W. f. Mau, a member Of that body
from this county. which had not been
reported from the committee. Mau
being absent at the time, the Speaker
order a call Of the House and directed
the Sergeant-at-Arms to go out and
find him. After q diligent search that
officer returned and reported that he
was unable to locate the absent mem
Der. Consequently, no action was
taken on the bill.
Various rumors are afloat here re-
garding the changes in the salaries in
the proposed measure. but as a copy OF
the original bill has not as yet been re.
ceived in Eureka 1t is not known what
changes 10 was intended TO make.

Legislature Passes Act Which Requires

A special Carson dispatch to the Reno

One Of the most important Acts pass.
ed by the last Legislature was that re-
curing the Assessors in the State in all
cases to assess patented lands and State
contract lands at not less than $l.25 an
acre.
This will make a striking difference
in the assessments as there are thou
sands Of acres of such lands in this
State, many tracts being owned by the
railroad. In the past it is declared the
assessment has been nominal, running
from 10 cents an acre up.
The measure was introduced by
Senate Leader Bell Of Humboldt

closely in the House, and at an op.
perfume moment slipped through that
