ARMISTICE DAY

Governor Bowie has issued the
following proclamation: Where
as, on November H. 1918, an
armistice was granted on the re-
quest OF the Imperial German
Government by the United States
of America and the Associated
Powers; and
Whereas, This date marks the
end OF the era of force culminat-
ing brutal and savage attack
OH civilization, and the beginning
of an era of firm, just and dura-
bic peace:
Now, therefore, |, Emmett D..
Boyle. Governor OF the state Of
Nevada under the authority in
me vested, do designate and set
apart as a holiday November IL,
1919, as Armistice Day and | call
on the people, laying aside their
usual occupations, to observe it
in an appropriate manner.
1t will be fitting on that day
to give first place in the celebra-
tionto the ideals Of America and
the deeds of Americans, under
the inspiration of those ideals,
which forced an alien and mighty
power to quit and sue for peace.
Nevada is proud OF her sons
for their part in this war, and
will delight to honor them who
have honored her.
1t is only by giving just recog-
milton to such service that our
people can preserve thu spirit Of
liberty and sacrifice which they
have SO nobly exemplified.
Emmett d. Boyle
Governor.

TAX VALUATIONS IN
VARIOUS COUNTIES

The total 1919 assessed valua
ton of Nevada property is S197-
812,7O3, according to compila-
tons completed at the office Of
the secretary Of the tax commits
sion at Carson City. This total
as arrived at after many changes
i'll rolls necessitated by action ia
ken by the tax commission which
early last week adjourned as a
final board of equalization. The
total is smaller than that Of the
previous year, which showed val
uations totaling S108,O12,556.
The net decrease is due, practi-
callyin full, to decreased popula-
ton in the mines Of White Pine
and Nye Counties the last few
months on account of strike con-
ditions, and the resulting de-
crease in bullion taxes Now that
the final valuations have been de-
termined, the various county tax
rates will be figured out by the
commission. The 1910 assessed
valuations by counties are as
follows: Churchill, So,3o1, o38;
Clark 1921, lao; Douglass, sos
5S2; Elko. S41 ,312, 2o4; Esmeralda
S5,oo4,S32;;. Eureka, So,370,o55

With the exception Of Nye and

tons Of the counties are consid-
erably in excess of the original
valuations estimated at the time
OF the preparations of the budgets.

In order to meet the increased
demand for houses, Al. Annett
has been busily engaged for some
time past in moving. a number of

and various other points, to Nina.
These houses he is altering, re-
building and fitting up for occu-

completing them fast enough to

prospective tenants.
In addition to Mr.. Annett's ac-

dozen residences being conctruct-
