one OF the most pressing matters
Of business before the Board Of
County Commissioner at their
regular meeting held yesterday,
and adjourned until today, was
the tentative appointment Of mem
bers Of the election boards OF the
various precincts, and the setting
Of a scale of wages to be paid
those vino serve on the different
boards
IN accordance with a law passed
at the last legislature, precincts
of more than 200 registered voters
are TO be served by two election
boards. one Board VIII serve from
9 a m. until closing Of the polls
at six o'clock.
The second board goes on at
six ocock and remains until the
count Is completed. This legislation
viii be Of great assistance in
the Las Vegas precincts At the
last General Election several Of
the local Boards worked all elec-
ton day. all night and until three
o'clock the following afternoon.
Under the old law governing the
compensation Of election Boards,
the Primary Election Boards were
supposed 70 serve without COM
pensation. In order TO even things
up a bit, the Board usually paid
the allowance Of $1,000 for the
General election in the large pre-
cincts. but even this amount was
poor compensation for the amount
Of time served The. new law
provides for the payment Of each
board for each election. and the
Board Of County Commissioners
has arranged a schedule which
seems fair. the rates being fixed
by the number Of registrations.
This scale for each board mem
Der for each election is fixed as
follows:
Las Vegas Precincts $3.50
West End $500
Moapa $500
Lcgandale S5 90
OyertCn $3.50

Bunkerville $3.50
Mesquite $3.50
Nelson $500
Searchlight $500
GOCdSprings $3.50
Sloan $500
Arden $3.50
There Will be no Small Precinct
ballots this year. as both Nelson
and West End which voted by
mail two years ago. have gone
over the number % which is the
limit set for precincts voting by
mail

election boards are not entirely
complete, Clerk VIM. L. Scott
has not definitely placed those on
the Las Vegas Boards, with regard
to day and night shifts. Those who
