LEGISLATORS MUST KEEP EYES OPEN.

IT BEaoovEs our legislators t. keep their eyes open during the
closing days Of the legislative session. A number OF bills have been in
troduced which would work a great injustice to Elko County by taking
away revenue which properly belongs to the counties and giving it to the
state.
For instance the bill making the sherins exonicio game wardens, is
very innocent on the surface but it would be entirely bad in such counties
a 8 Elko where every man who fishes or hunts buys a license. The pnn.
cipal objection to the bill is that 80 per cent of revenue derived from the
saeo II licenses goes to the state, yet the county must foot all costs of
prosecutions. The result OF such a law would result in officials overlook
ing most ofenses -
1t sasop proposed to do away with the state fish commission. Every
person with whom we have talked opposes this. The commission is doing
good work. with practically no cost to the state and it would be extreme
folly to make a change. Eko county has no cause o complain abcIt the
fish commission and our delegation should oppose such a measure.
A bill has also been Introduced which Is of vital Importance to merch-
ants 1t does away with merchandising licenses and leaves the legitimate
merchants with n o protection whatever against iinerant merchants. Our
local retail merchants association should look into this matter for their
W protection.
1T is also reported that a bill is in course of preparation which will
lower the salaries Of our county commissioners and do away with GER
tain deputies. We WARN the Elko delegation that they are treading o n
dangerous ground If they contemplate such action. Our commissioners
should receive a raise in salary If anything, and this Et true with some of
the other officials. Additional work is continually being placed upon
them 70 which they receive no compensation.
We doubt yer much that there is foundation for the report current.
We believe that our delegation feelstust about IS w do-that our govern
ment should be economically but efficiently governed and that u public
officials are entitled to justice. We look for n o parsimonious Or unjust
action Tor UT delegation is composed of broad minded mn of experience
and fairness

and insteud of sending 1t to that COM

Then fireworks began shooting
back and forth and Pitt suggested in
strong imprecation that somebody
lied most damnably IL he insisted such
and such were true. Then the ins!n-
uation WIS made hat members of
the tax commission were on the floor
lobbying for the bill in its new shape
and that should not be permitted
All Of which was extremely amusing
to the onlooker, who was able to re-
call, without any great stress Of
mind, the number OF cattlemen and
agents OF landed interests who have
been and are now in Carson working
tooth and nail to either kill the bill
altogether or make IL SO Jupine that
II would have to be backed up against
