COUNTY WILL GET OVER
$4,000 FROM THE STATE

The sixty days allowed for legis
lative work in this state has clap
sed, and, unless special session is
called by Gov Oddie. the twenty
sixth legislature has passed into
history.
Many measures, good. bad and in
different have been attempted and
and some accomplished, but taken
all In all. the measures attempted
and those which will be placed upon
the statute books give the assur
ance to the people of the state that
those constituting the personnel CT
the senate and assembly have striv-
en- conscientiously and intelhgently
to work for the best. interests o.
this commonwealth.
Several measures Of local interest
have been proposed and passed.
Chief among them being the fixing
of the Indebtedness existing between
Lincoln and Clark counties growing
out of the county division. This
measure was passed two years ago,
but owing to the great pressure
brought to bear upon the governor,
by the sister county, his excellency
saw fit to affix his veto thereto.
Judicial District Division
Another measure Is the division OF
the judicial district. 1t is matter
of common knowledge that Elko cour
ty was the prime mover in this di
rection. Some years ago, at the
time White Pine county was elimi
dated from the old Fourth judicia
district and the division of Linkoll
and Clark counties occurred. Elkt
county was axious to go by herself
claiming that she paid nearly all o
the salary and wanted the benefit
Of Judge solely within the coun
county which contention was ne
tirely just 1t was upon the insist
ence of our representatives at tha
time that Elko county consented t
let THE judicial district remain o
the old order until the counties c
Lincoln and Cirak recovered from th
effects of division and were placed u
firmer basis financially. Supposin
that the counties so mentioned ha
been given time for such recuperatio
Elko at last claimed that to whic
she was entitled-a judicial distri,
