THE OFFICIAL SLACKERS

The New York Tribune is asking
Congress to repeal the exemption
from income taxes that now protects
State and Municipal office holders.
Congress should lose nc time in an
nulling," says that paper. 1.-The fool

State, County and Municipal officers
into an invidious and pampered

dorse that suggestion. The mar
who draws two or three thousand
dollars from a public treasury is as
able to pay these taxes as the man
who has to sweat over a desk or a
trowel for less money. There can be
no excuse for making preferred men

office is seldom thrust upon them.

DEATH OF ELIAS B00Mn0WER
Former Well Known Eureka Coun-
ty Resident Dies at His Home
in California

The SENTINEL is in receipt of a
clipping from a San Jose. CAL, paper
announcing the death Of Elias Boom
hover at his home in that city on
August 1, following a weeks illness.
Mr.. Boomhower was n of a fam
lily of 13 children and was born on
March 10, 1889, near Rennselaerville.
Albany County. N. Y, coming to
California during the gold excite
ment. as a young man, reaching San
Francisco from New York by boat
and the Isthmus of Panama in the
Spring of 1860.
After spending a short time in San
Francisco, he went from there to
Nevada City and later to Austin, Ne
ada. and engaged in mining.
On November 26. 1868, he was
married to Mary j. Sherman of Grass
Valley, Nevada County, Cal. Fol
lowing their marriage they nVea Tor
a time in Hollister, going from-there
to a large stock ranch in Eureka
County, Nevada, in 1874.
In 1900, he sold his ranch and again
moved to HOLSTER. staying about
two years, when the family came to

Cattle and Sheep Going East

A shipment of a trainload of cat
tie and sheep left Winnemucca a few
days ago over the Southern Pacific.
Shipment of stock east at this time
is being made because there is no
western market for feeders, d u e
principally to the shortage of hay
and pasture in California. The short
age of hay in this state makes ne.
cessary the selling of cattle and sheep
that otherwise would be held in the
State. Other shipments are being
made from Golconda.

GERMAN LONG DISTANCE GUNS

That the German high command
had little dreamed of being expelled
from the Rheims-Soissons salient is
the confident belief of the CORES
pondent who saw and described two
of the big cannon used for shelling
Paris. And indeed the belief will be
shared by any one reflect upon the
circumstance Of the presence in the
region about Fere-en-Tardenois of
these stupendous guns. which re-
quired for their building such effort
as must have been necessary. To the
eye of the correspondent the emplace-
ment resembled Pittsburg steel mill.
1t was magnificent in its magnitude.
dwarfing the largest d~readnought
gun turret ever constructed. Meas
urements showed that the steel drum
foundation for one of the super-guns
weighed HOO tons and the gun carri-
age between 200 and $50 tons. 1t
was in the woods a mile from the
railroad and to aid in it's construction
a switch and three separate lines Of
railroad to the site had been con-
structed. The foundation for this
gun was forty feet in diameter. 1t
was discovered by American troops
by which this region was retaken
from the Germans.
New emplacements were evidently
soon arranged, for the Smelling Of
Paris was only interrupted about
two weeks. The Germans have again
been forced to move these guns as
dispatches of August IL announce
that no shells had fallen in Paris for
two DAYS.
