OFFICIAL FAMILY
OF NYE SEATED
FEW CHANGES IN PRINCIPALS
AND DEPUTIES IN THE
COUNTY

COUNTY
Nevada's official family, as it will |
be constituted during the next term
of office, got comfortably seated at
the court house yesterday. There
were rather few changes, due to the
reelection of a number of the Of
ficials, who retained to consider
able extent their former deputies.
Robt. G. Pohl, the county clerk,
had nothing to do but file new bond
and renew the oath of office. Qf
course Lowell Daniels continues to
be his chief deputy. He is a fixture,
like built-in furniture.
Charles l.. Slavin, the new sheriff
and assessor, has appointed John II.
Myles his chief deputy. Mr.. Myles
has been assessing Nye county prop
erty since Sheriff Owens time. X.
w. williams has been appointed a
deputy and b. j. Slavin deputy and
court bailiff.
w. M. Grimes got back to 1ono-
pah just in time to succeed himself
as auditor and recorder. He said he
could not imagine where he could
find better assistance, so he reap
pointed Mrs. Lynnette Grimes chief
deputy and Miss Kathleen Hafferon
assistant. There is no change in the
treasurer's office, N. X. Franklin, re-
elected, reappointing Mrs. r. F. Gil
bert.
/ AS to the fathers of the county,
the board of commissioners, they are
the same as the board was constitut
ed before, with the exception that
Commissioner Davis has been sue
ceeded by Commissioner Marsh as
chairman, in view of the fact that
the latter was the only holdoyer,
while both Mr.. Davis and Mr.. Fergu-
son we're reelected, the former for
the long and the latter for the short
term
In the township offices there is no
change, Judge Dunseath and Con
stable Evans succeeding themselves.

company paid off its employees in pa

Ways heretofore paid in gold coin has
led to much speculation and ii is as
serted in financial circles that this
action is part of u rational policy to
conserve the gold supply in the
United States which is in danger OF
being depleted owing to demand
caused by the foreign war. 1t is
declared that banks all over the
country have Instructions not TO pay
drafts from Canada but to hold them
for collection and that a belief is
growing thar gold is likely to be
worth a premium before long. Fol
some time the banks OF this section
have been saving all the gold they get

currency and silver money and lt Is
declared chat they cXpect to continue
this policy although there rs still CON

EMERGENCY rs
LESS IN USE.
PERCENTAGE or LAWS WITH
THIS CLAUSE DECREASES
FROM 10 IN 1911 no 33

Pierre,S. D.-A summary OF the
manner in which the emergency"
clause has been used for several ses-
sions is shown in the figures for the
past three sessions. At the 1917 ses-
sion, PCS laws ere enacted, of which
129 or forty-fivc per cent We're class
ed as emergency measures. At the
1913 session, there We're 81 laws
enacted, OF which 154 or forty-onc
per cent We're classed as emergency;
At The 1915 session there We're BIS
laws enacted, OF which 1913 or thirty
three per cent carry the emergency
clause. There was a strong sentiment
at the session just closed against the
attachment of the emergency
clause unless a real emergency could
be shown instead of a merely theo-
retical one and this no doubt kept
down The list for this session.

Pierre, s. D,-'Mining" for hay
is said to be one of the needs of the
occasion among ranchers north OF
this city. They drive up to the loca-
tion OF a hay stack, and open il from
the top, and soon are compelled TO
pitch the hay ont OF a deep hole be
fore ii can be loaded on their sleds,
many Of the stacks being drifted an
der entirely. and others merely show
ing as small mounds above the sur
rounding snow. The result is a pres
cnt scarcity OF feed. There is plen-
ty of hay in the country but it is inn
possible TO get the stock either to
the location of the stacks. or haul the
hay in any quantities to where the
stock is located, and stock owners
are praying for a break in the wealth
er conditions to allow the snow to
settle so they can get their stock
and nfeed together.
One of the snow stories is that
of a young man named McGrnde1
who left Okobojo with a sleigh load
OF supplies and was caught by dark
before he had gone far, and soon
had his team fi0undcring. He un-
hitched the team from the sleigh
and attempted TO find shelter. which
he located after several hours OF
wandering, getting to a ranch house
about midnight. lie started out to
locate his sled the mex morning
but not knowing its exact location
has not been able to find it the whole
