ww “ NEVADA cITry, CAL. J Lye FOR PRESIDENT,” ~ GENERAL U.S. GRANT. . Subject to the decision of the National Re. publiéan Convention. ‘Double Taxation—Oulton’s Bill. Our legislutors -have a faculty of . taking hold of questions at the w rong . end, and the legislation and attempted legislation in reference to double “ gage or-lien given and. held upon real 4 SS ———-yow~ pending in “this State, com. the costs of the suit; anda reasonable ous act passed by the last Legislathe.

We notice that Senator Oulton has introduced a bill exempting mortpages, which provides that ‘‘no niortestate Or promissory notes secured bby moxigage shall be ansessed upon ‘the booksef any Assessor of a city and county, om.otherwise.All suits [ . The done Tianseript E> . ae ‘ted for a “‘short.term,,” "Who is Chicf Justice? oe In local circles, says the Record, . We frequently hear the e question asked, ‘‘Who is the Chief Justice of the _ . Supreme Court?". Many seem to think that it is Judge “Crockett, who was appointed in place of Shafter, resigned, as Shatter would have now . mained upon the~bench. ~ The popj ular’ supposition is that agente was . at the) . next judicial election_ after his ap-. . pointizient bythe Governor. But, in truth, there is no such thing as at “short term’”’ tution. ——---that-at-enachjndicial election, com mencing with that of 1863, 4 Justice . of the Supreme Court shall be elected’) for ten years, and that the person having the shortest term. to serve phall be the Chief Justice, After the first. election Sanderson! ; . them. drew the short term, commencing with Jan. 4; 1864, expiring Jan, , 1566; Curry the next,-expiring Jan. menced_to collect any.tax assessed upon mortages upon real-estate or upon any sum of money, the\p: ayment of which at the time of the commencement of the suit was. secured by mortgage upon real estate, whether the same was evidenced by bond and mortgage, or deed and defeasance, the plaintiff's attorney is hereby authorized to cause to be dismissed, the defendant“first paying sum to said attorney for his services as attorney for plaintiff.” This bill . is substantially the same as the odi. tute, except that it provides forthe . dismissal of suits: which are now . ‘pending before the Supreme Court for testing the constitutionality of the law, thus taking snap judgment on the Constitution of the State. » If there be any good reason why .

Haight to fill the . . vacancy untilthe next election, which . was in October, 1869. He was then elected, a8 the Constitution says, for ten years, and went into office Jan. 1, 1870, under that election. Sprague went into office for ten years on the Ist of January, 1568.” Sanderson was’ elected in 1865, to succeed himself, for ten years;-but resigned after the election of 1869,~and Tempe was appointed to fill the vacaney until the election in 1871, when Nites was-cleeted vat eet te. “the Consti “Tae anaes Seagian.-2 A Mr. Walker has such strong faith “in the approach ‘of another flood that he has written a-book about it, The last North, southward.~"The next will occur in the year 7382, unless hastened by unknown caus and in an opposite direction.

Just taxation is that which © ‘requires men to pay upon their property and not upon their debts, and the law proposed by Senator Oulton not only prevents this, ‘ but proposes to. prevent the Supreme . Court of .the State from deciding, = whether-seeh position is Constitutional er not. It proposes not only to prevent the assessment of money secured by mortgage or note, but to dismiss all.cases by which the validity of such a law isto be tested. We notice that the bill has been “referred to ths ogee a butif the Senate should pass it, we hope to see it strangled in the As_sembly or vetoed by the Governor, iil the State Constitution, and. its ‘pas.

The ‘same ques-' tion will arise between Niles and Rhodes at the—eommencement—of 1880. ° If Niles and Crockett followed the terms of their resigning predecessors, + the terms of the various Justices would expire as follows: ~Crockett—Jan. 1, 1874.
