THE BISHOP

According to the Reno Journal
word has been received from the
coast that the condition OF Bishop
Robinson, who has been under the
care of a physician there for some
time, has materially improved and his
carly, complete recovery and resunl-
ption Of work is now confidently eN
pected.
After having been confined to- his
room for some time the Bishop enjoy
ed drive Sunday and was permitted
to take more substantial nourish1nent
than he had received since he went tc
the coast. With continued favorable
conditions such as now prevail it Isl
expected Bishop Robinson will be able
to return~'to Nevada within a few

The Tax Commission Bill
Reported From Committee
To be ThreShed Out in the House
as it Comes Without
Recommendation

The much talked over Taxation Bill
which was presented some time ago
by the special committee to frame d
law i'll the Legislature, came up out OF
the Ways & Means Committee this
morning. This bill has probably re-
ceived more discussion the past few
weeks than any other measure so far
presented in the session. it is franz
ed to more properly regulate taNa-
ton throughout the state. IS it is hg-
ured that while the corporations are
furnishing one third of the money
individual owners are shyins past the
Assessors, and that the Assessors.
from the fact that they are elected by
the people, are under obligations from
some such a source.
The consequence of an elective ottl-
Ger it is figured is that it does not get
the tax money tha tthe state and
counties are entitled to. The railroads
and other interpretations stood the
horizontal raises and without legal OBJ
lection. They are asking that the
same treatment be accorded the big
individual owners throughout the
state. 1t was|with this plan in sight
that the citizens of the state met and
worked with plan of commissions
taxation. that it believed would bring
about the results. In turn the Senate
and Assembly Committee framed the
bill which to-day was reported back

GOOD WORK
PERFORMED
IN SENATE
Our Representatives
Know Their Business

The people of Nevada should real.
ize that the state has two wcrthy rep
resentatives in the United States Sen
ate. The work performed by Sena-
tors Newlands and Pittman in regard
to the mint matter was as capable as
any ever done in the Upper House
for Nevada Other sections of the
United States have been represented
by mer before who had to talk then
bills through Congress and the same
thing happened a few evenings agc
when the Nevada Senators stood them
ground till they brought the L0wer
House to its knees and the amend
ments that were insisted on, adopted
Senator NewlandS is without doub,
one of the big men in tile National
affairs, and being with the majority
party this session of Congress will be
in a position to demand and receive
many an appropriation that otherwise
would be impossible His work foI
the Western assay offices and the Ne
vada mint was zone of the signs OF

When it is considered that Senator
Pittman has been in the Senate bur
a few weeks. and that he at once be-
came recognized as big man in tho

Many bills were disposed OF in the
two house, OF legislation this morning
While the bills were freely discussed
the arguments were 70 the point, little
time lost and lot OF measures camd
up Tor action The Journal reading
was dispensed with which helped /"
clear the path The result OF thl
morning, work IN both legislative
branchc, resulted in cutting down tho
long list, that were posted on the
blackboards.
In the Assembly but two bills made
their appearance, one regulating affA
airs in Elko County and coming from
that delegation.
The other from Ormsby County
granting fees to the Justices OF the
Peace. The local bills went TO tn,
select committees.
The third reading followed. The
first bill was that providing Tor saniA
tary cups in public drinking places. 1t
was discussed and lost.
No. l2S by kelliher, regulating COM

over TO the Senate.

bonding the state for three hundred
thousand dollars, and taking up the olo
debts. was discussed. amended and
finally passed. This will create money
for the legislative fund and other state
bills that are on the docket.

that non-English speaking miners

to the session for its action.

without RECOMMENDATION. In other
words this bill must be fought out on
the floor of the two Houses.
What appeared to be fairly good
sailing before the meeting OF the Leg
islature has become chOppy sea.
The bill is being tossed pretty vio-
lently and it will be lucky if it is not
sunk before the session closes. 1t no
longer becomes a party measure, as
while some Republicans. and some
Democrats favor the plan, others OF
the ranks are openly opposed to such
a measure. This is why the commit
tee that reported this morning sent
the bill to the Fl louise that it might be
threshed out on the floor.
Yesterday there was a bill passed
that is contended by some does all
the work that would come into the
hands of a new Tax Commission. 1t
was originally framed by Senator
Mack of Douglas. revampcd by the
Judiciary and passed. 1t is contendA
ed that by such a law that the big
sheep man and his large cattle brother
can be rounded to the pay counter
The bill has gone to the Governor
for his signature and should the Tax
Commission Bill meet its death in the
LEGISLATURE. there is at least a new
help to a certain degree 1t is a com
pound and complex question that has
the two Houses guessing.

MINING
INTERESTS
REVIEWED
New Properties Claim
Attention in OrmSby

Some mining properties have start
ed in this county that look like busi-
ness. During the past few months
some assays have been turned oul
here that had they occurred in any
other section would have started q
boom.
To the east of this city some four
or FIVE miles DR. Krebs and associates
have opened up what appears to bo
one of the best properties discovered
in western Nevada. Some months
ago ledge was uncovered while do
ing assessment work that gave assays
of 1870 ounces in silver and some gold.
Work was started and it has been
shown that the ledge is in place and
that there is more than an even
chance of making a mine. It has re-
suited in the equipment of the prop
erty, the building of substantial
bunk and cook house, new roads an6i
half a dozen men on the pay roll
Arrangements are being made to for
ward shipment of this hight grade
ore within few days. There has
been little or no noise about this
find and while the claim owners do
not contend yet that they have a
mine, yet the fact that they are ship
ping tells pretty good story.
Parties working at the old Trap
per also report a find. L is stated
that the ledge that was lost near the
surface has been picked UP below
the fault and there is exposed a good
body of milling ore The Trapper
was originally worked by the early
day MeMcans and some very rich
specimens are yet to be picked up
about their work.
Another property that has gone in
to new hands is the old Bismark

show the people OF this part OF the
state what is being carried on at the
University and what they can do in
way of boosting the state. Recently
a student campaign has been inaugur
ated by the students and has been
greatly assisted by the newspapers
throughout the state and Of other neal
by states.
This is by far the most modern
movement that has been begun by the
state or any of its functions in some
time. The state needs population

uate from the State University are
the most active class Of people for tho
general welfare Of the future OF Ne
