SOME v HISTORY

In connection with the present low
price of silverit is interesting to note
that in the SO years up to 1914 in
elusive, in only nine years has the
average yearly price been less than
60 cents an ounce. and in no year
was the average price less than so
cents an ounce. Silver at present is
quoted around 48 1-2 cents an ounce,
and this has been approximately the
average price for the current year
to date. In 1914 the average price
was 54.8 cents. The first time the
average annual price broke through
60 cents was in 1898 when it was SO
cents an ounce. 1t lowered around
60 cents then until 1902 when the
price dropped to So cents an ounce.
and for three consecutive years the
average price was below 60 cents.
By 1906 the price jumped to 68 cents.
but in the panic year of 1908 it
dropped again to SO cents, and the
average price continued at approx
imately this figure until 1912 when it
advanced to 81 cents. The produc-
ton of silver in the United States
in 1914 was 81. 1923, 700 fine ounces
as compared with &C, 801 500 fine
ounces in 1918. The gold production
in the United States last year was
4,490. 1886 ounces as compared with
1929, 784 ounces in 1913.

Fact That Women Vote Makes Som.
Difference In Titles They Enjoy

Reno has the honor of having the
first woman deputy county official
since the vote was granted to Nevada
women in November, Miss Bell d.

Treasurer Dan B. Boyd. having been
appointed Deputy County Auditor by
County Auditor c. III. Stoddard. She
will succeed Roy Stoddard. who has
occupied the position for many years.
Miss Boyd was for a long time as
sistant to her father in the tresurer's
office, but never before had the title

The Elko Independent states that
''the Wells Fargo Express Company

Wells Fargo people have been sued

DIVORCE BILL HELD UP


BY a vote of IL to z, with one alb
sent and two not voting, the Senate
at Carson last Monday sent the d.
vorce bill to the judiciary committee,
rejecting the motion made by Huskey
to refer it to the committee on pub
lie morals. The vote, which is con.
s;dered an indication as to what the
Senate vote on the bill will be. came
up on an amendment offered by Lex
to Huskey's motion.
There was no discussion on the vote.
Voting against the amendment to re
fer the bill to the judiciary commit
tee were Buol, Arnold. Huskey. Full
mer, Kend. Thatcher and Balzar'
Senator Hussman was absent. The
judiciary committee in the Senate
consists of Chaplin, chairman; Lee,
Lemaire, Hesson and Huskey. A
majority of the committee is known
to be against the bill and an unfav'
orable report is predicted. Aside
from the regular routine there wal
little doing in the Senate that morn
ing.
In the Assembly the bill regulating
working hours for females and es
tablishing an eight-hour day fol
them was killed by an indefinite
postponement. The bill passed thu
