Show STANDARD UNFAIR TO UTAH. We have a protest from a man who knows. Tic says that in addition ad-dition to the stato of Nevada assessing the Central Pacific railway $31,500 per mile from California to Utah, the state of Nevada also assesses said road $6,000 for each mile of side track within the State of Nevada. He further says that the Standard should add that amount to the Novada railway assessment. That is absolutely fight, but we wanted to be more than fair to the railroads and the Utah officials. We can tell of some other things Nevada assesses, but if we told it all the people would think we were "overdoing it." It is better to be more than fair than to be unfair. Why, if this paper were to tell nil it knows about the present in competency and short comings of Utah officials, the peoople would be astounded, but we believe that we have said enough to convince every honest man that Utah ought to have a change of public officials. offi-cials. Turn the rascals out. |
