MANY CLOWNS COMING
With SELLS-FLOTO CIRCUS

Ever since circuses were invented.
the press agents of the various organ
izations have been coming along TO
tell the editors all about how many
clowns their attraction carries, be
cause when you come to think of it a
circus is mainly composed of sawdust
and elephants, pretty women riders
and beautiful gymnasts, and last but
not least clowns-the more clowns the
better.
But really, when we come to sum up
the Sells Floto people have, for the
past two years, carried off the cham
pionship in the matter of joy dispens-
ers. BY actual count, they have
brought us more funny men than any
attraction visiting us, so it is only
just that we should give some cred
ence to their promoter of publicity
when he breezes into the Office and
tells US without batting an eye that
they have so many this year she
couldn' t count 'em before he left. y

MRS. WINDLE LAID
TO REST YESTERDAY

At 4:30 O'Clock yesterday afternoon
the Methodist Episcopal church was
filed with friends who came to pay a
last tribute of respect to the memory
of Mrs. Emerine Windle, who passed
away Tuesday evening. The regular
funeral service of the Methodist
Episcopal church was conducted by
DR.. II. f. Colby, pastor of the Baptist
church, and music appropriate to the
occasion was rendered by choir com
posed of Miss Florence Guthrie, or

TAX Commission
VISITS HUMBOLDT

Capt. c. II. Colburn and Emmett d.
Boyle, state tax commissioner. ac
companied by L. F. Adamsor, secre-
tary or the board, arrived in town last
evening, coming from Elko, and today
are IN consultation with Assessor RI
M. Leonard. The commission was
created by the last legislature, and
shortly after their appointment the
three gentlemen mentioned started out
on tour of the state, in an endeavor
TO eqnalize assessments before made.
Commissioner Shaughnessy, who is al
40 railroad commissioner, did not ac-
company the party, being detained in
Carson City by official duties.
To the Silver State, this morning,
Commissioners Colburn and BOYLE
stated that they had visited every
county in the state, Humboldt being
the last of the itinerary They have
found assessments grossly unequal. no.
only as to the different classes of
property in the same county, but as
between the same classes of property
IN different counties, as well. In
five or six of the counties of the
state, all property is assessed at its
full cash value, at the highest market
price, while in the balance the per-
centage varies. 1t is the aim of the
commission to induce the several coun-
tv assessors to use a certain percent
age of the cash value of the different
classes of property as the basis of this
years assessment, in order that their
figures will require little or no equal
izing when the work is completed
While the commission has no juris-
diction over the assessors, they are in
complete control of their work, and,
if deemed necessary, may refuse to
accept their rolls, place new men in
the field and make complete new as
sessment.
commission to bring all classes of
property up to its full cash value, this
will not be attempted in full until the
year following the next session of the
legislature, or in 1915. However, it is
expected that this years assessment
will show substantial increase over
that of last year, and that next year s
figures will be somewhat in excess of
those for this season.
The tax rate for all except state pur-
poses was established at the March
meetings of the boards of county com
missioners of the state, but in case
the new valuations, at the rates fixed,
produce too great revenue for any
or all counties. the commiss oners may
reduce the rate at their October meet
ing.
The commissioners stated that they
had found Assessor Leonard s office
in so good condition that they
would probably be able to conclude
their work today and leave this even
ing for Carson City.

Burleson announced that an executive

office, or candidates for prospective
appointments, should he subjected to
competitive examination to deter
mine their fitness for the places
The postmaster general stated that
President Taft's action in putting
fourth-class postmasters in the classi.
fed service was not in conformity
with the spirit of the civil service, as
there were not tests to determine the
merits of the applicants The new or
der places the age limit for appoin-

ond class, $4,000 to $4,000; third,
81 300 to $4,000, and fourth, under
81 900
All postoffices in Humboldt county
are in the fourth class, with the ex.
ception of Winnemucca and Lovelock,
which at present are thirdclass offices.
Last year the local postoffice receipts
were within 1888 of the $4,000 limit
required for a second-class office, and
Postmaster Rogers states that the re-
eeipts this year will run over the re-
qured amount. In that event Whine

While the receipts of the Lovelock

that the new camp of Rochester will
bring them up to the requirement also
