TAXING PATENTED MINES
Object Of Amendment Is to Allow
Opening of Patented Ground
for Prospecting

Carson Appeal: The passage last Fall
of the amendment to the Constitution
of Nevada which allows the taxing of
patented mines has been ratified in the
Assembly. This action was necessary
on account of the provisions of the law.
Without the legislative Act the will of
the voters at the last general election
would have been set aside.
There was some objection TO the
amendment on the floor Of the House,
mainly that the provision as passed by
the people sets a tax valuation of $500 on
each patented claim. IL was set up that
this was an excessive valuation in many
cases, while it was under valuation in
others. The new amendment to the
Constitution will be law as soon as the
Senate sets its approval to the bill.
The object of this amendment is to al
low the opening of patented ground to
prospecting. In many instances in this
State the ground is held under patent
and has escaped any class of taxation.
Under the new system it will be possible
to apply a tax. Iu case the taxes are
not paid the property can be sold at
Sheriff's sale, giving new holders a title
that wonld be impossible other wise.
There has been a clamor for this pro-
vision for years and it will be in effect
at the next levying of values on proper.

Old Timers Meet and
Tell Of DOingS

The other night in Reno Assem- bly,
man Spencer Reynolds, Senators John
Bell and Hy Stoker of Lovelock held
a talkfest. The talk started with
Rochester and finally wound up with
tales of the old Comstock and the big
doings in the sixties and early seventies.
Stoker was one of the original team
sters that hauled wood from the Carson
river to Virginia City. He named over
a lot of mills up aud down the canyon
that have Lassed from the memory OF
most men.
Senator Bell, who was a boy in the
great silver camp at the time. can tell a
lot of the early history that is of more
than passing interest, and his recital re-
garding some of the bullion shipments
would make the new generation sit up
aud take notice.
Assemblyman Reynolds called to
mind all the big doings in Austin at
the time the camp was booming, n
the big teams that used to raverse
that section. If the younger
want any ancient history they can md
a number of pioneers in both Houses
who can give them tips on the tradings
of a day that has passed that make
Rochester and the other recent-day
booms look like small change.-Oarson

THE ALFALFA WEEVIL
Law Should be Passed to Guard Against
Possible Importation of Pest

A Churchill County man who recently
returned from the East CHANGED to
meet a Utah man on the train and was
given some points on the dangers OF the
alfalfa weevil that has devastated the
fields of our ne~ighboring State.
The Utah man said as near as could
be traced, the weevil was imported
from Germany with a lot of straw
packed around crockery that came to
the State Insane Asylum that the pest
spread in all directions from the asylum
until in three years it had covered al
most the whole of Salt Lake County.
The weevil does not exactly kill the
plant, but destroys the entire first and
second crops of alfalfa, though the third
crop may produce reasonably well. So
far no remedy has been discovered, and
the only help is to plow up the alfalfa
and seed the ground to clover, blue
grass, timothy or other crops.
This is a subject that has many times
been discussed throughout Nevada, but
we should not let the matter rest.
Every possible avenue should be guarded
in order to prevent the dread alfalfa
weevil being imported from Utah into
Nevada. We have before pointed out
the danger of the alfalfa weevil being
brought into this State with the pack.
ing around fruit trees. We do not wish
to be harsh with our Utah n~eighbors,
but we cannot afford 10 take any
chances.
Our present Legislature should pass
laws. if possible. to gu ard against this
danger TO the greatest agricultural in
dustry which Nevada possesses. Either
q State board or the County Commits
sioners should be empowered to estab-
lish a quarantine against any possible
importation of the alfalfa weevil Fall

of the company can be carried out. or
other action taken that will s~traighten

draining the tanks in the mill and for
other necessary work about the plant.

and hospitality, which always pervades
the atmosphere at this home, made it.
self again felt when nine guests, men,
bers of the bridal party. assembled to
do honors to the occasion. The lovely
home is ideally arranged for enter

this occasion was exquisite, the man

with exquisite flowers. while hand
some ferns and palms filled jardiniers.
After pleasant salutations, the guests
were invited to the dining room,
which was radiant with its dainty
china. cut glass, silvtr and flowers,
and was notably handsome in its ar

A large silver basket filled with
these delicate blossoms, the handle
having a finish of maline of the same
hue. formed the center-piece of the
table. and surrounding this were crys-
tai candlesticks holding violet tapers,
casting soft radiance over the lovely
and animated scene. At either end of
the board were placed smaller baskets
containing violets. adding to the eff
fectiveness of the arrangement. Hand
some china was used in the service
and the places were marked by lovely
miniature silver baskets filled with the
favored flower, and sailed nuts were
in individual cut glass dishes.

Gated the seat of the bride-elect, and
upon suggestion of the sweet hostess,
it was decided among these girls that
