WON'T STAND RAISE.

The Nevada Tax Commission,
which met in Carson this week pro-
posed to make fiat 10 per cent raise
on all property i'll Lyon county. 1t
has been necessary, it appears, to raise
the valuation of property in the State
this year to nearly $135,000,00O to
raise revenue enough to meet the de-
mands of the last Democratic legisla-
ture. The valuation as it appears on
the assessment rolls of the different
counties foots up to only about $llS,-
000,000, and there is, therefore, a
shortage of about $l7,000,000 Asses
sor Pohe and some of the Lyon couny
taxpayers went to Carson to confer
with the Board and upon representa-
ton OF Assessor Pohe that Lyons val
uations were high enough now it is
possible that there will be no raise in
this county, unless it be on cattle
sheep and farm lands 1t seems that
the railroads and public utility valua
tons cannot be raised any higher 1t
is sure thing that Lyon is paying all
she can stand up under under present
conditions, and Mr. Pohe and other
taxpayers have shown this to the
State Tax Commission conclusively it
is hoped

FIRES DRAWN

SMELLING PLANT.

The Mason Valley Mines Com

down OH Tuesday of this week. Many
of the smelter employees have left the
little smelter town of Thompson, while
a few will be retained to make things
secure about the plant, for some days
yet. AS before stated, there is no tell
ing when the plant will start opera
tons again 1t was not a pleasant
sight to see the fires in the big plant
go out, and it is devoutly to be hoped
that conditions will soon attain that
will allow of the resumption of op-
erations The following statement has
been sent out from the New York
office of the company to all sock
holders:
New York, October 10 1914.
To the Stockholders of Mason Val
ley Mines Company:
On account of the low price of cop
per and the discontinuance of ship
ments by a number of mines which
had contracted to ship ore to our
smelter, it has been decided to close
down our mine and smeler.
The difficulty in marketing copper
has made it impossible to estimate
intelligently financial results of opera
tions and for that reason the state
ment for the quarter ended June 80
1914. was omitted A statement will
be made TO you as soon as final re
suits of operations can be determined

According to the bureau of crop esti-

the production per hive was Is pounds.
The decrease is said to be due to the

State relate to 1910 That year there
were 10 farms in Nevada that kept
