Foregoing is the tax levy of Doug
las County for the present year, as
lixed by the County Court this morn
ing. For the purpose of comparison
the levy for last year is also given.
This levy shows ull excess of $6,740
over the actual estimates needed in
the aggregate of the several funds.
This Is made necessary in order to
cover the rebates, delinquencies, etc..
which must always he reckoned with,
and the actual collections therefote
ure more likely to be under tliHii
over the amounts estimated for the
various funds.
Imuglas County stands fifth among
the counties In the amounts or sta.o

extraordinary and unforseen ex
penses the past year which makes an
increase of one-half mill necessary In
the general fund to clear up the de
ficiency thus created. The road and
bridge fund for this year Is placed
at live 'mills as against 4 Vj mills
last year. Three mills of this year s
rund is placed in the general fund of
the county to meet the cost of erect
ing five large steel bridges, as here
tofore auuouuced. The other two
mills goes Into the general road fund,
one half of which will be distributed
to the several road districts of the
county, ns announced at the Novem
ber term of court. The armory fund
of $'.6,554.82 Is levied on condition
that a rest room and toilet rooms
be provided iu the building for the
use or the country people. Otherwise
It Is to revert into the general fund
of the county. Ab thlB feature has
already been arranged, there-Is now
no further question that the arnioiy
will be built.
.The court Is being generally con
gratulated upon being able to secure
live new steel bridges the largest
in the county on a tax levy of only
three mills. It was thought th.it
three bridges or four at the utmost
was all that could be secured this
vear on a levy of that amount. Tim
appropriation for the armory Is alsj
considered an excellent one, as It wll!
bring Into the country for Its con
struction three times as much money
us Is actually paid by the resident
taxpayers for this purpose. Further
more and this Is a very Important
factor the stnte will maintain tho
building after It Is erected.
Itoad SiiH'rvlsortt .Next.
This morning, after fixing the an
nual tax levy, the -court began thi
work of appointing road supervisors
for the 63 districts or the county.
This will not be completed before
some time tomorrow at the earliest.
The members of the court went out
this afternoon to the site of the
Brown's ferry (C.arden Valley)
bridge, togeth'er with the contractor,
to tlx the exact location of the new
steel bridge to be erected there.
The jury list ror the year has been
practically completed, but must be
given a final checking up before It is
announced by the court.
Some road district boundary
changes will also be before the court
for action prior to their adjournment
for the term.

lug from Hugh McLain and published
In the Record relative to the probn -
billtv of the coming railroads brlilg-
lug Coos Hay near Pony Inlet, has
set tilings to humming among the
people who are opposed to any oh-
Btructlon such as a bridge. The mat -
ter Is being discussed on every hau I
today by nearly everybody and the
general wish among Marsbtleld peo-
nle Is that Congress will not permit
the roads to build such a bridge. The
old and time-worn arguments against
the proposition nre revived and the
earnestness with which the matter Is
being talked or. ut least III Marsh -
Ileiii, is certain not to prove goon
news to the railroad people. It Is as
Slimed that the North Head people
will be as ready to approve tho rail
road's application as they were four
years ago. when that city was prac
tically unanimous for the project. It
in ull a matter of "whose ox is
gored." ano the North llend iieople
figured In the past that a bridge
would help them, whereas, should
the railroad build down the east sld"
or the bay. It might leave North llend
nut of the railroad activities. A man
who Is well acquainted with what he
allows himself to advance, yesterday
said that the eople on the bay would
1 be allowed s hearing relative to their
wishes before any railroad Is given
permission to bridge the hay. It is
now understood that without the rec
ommendations or the engineer s oRhe
at Portland, the railroads cannot 011
taln permission from Hie Govern
ment. It has been said, as well, that
Malor Morrow. In charge of the otbci .
will submit the matter to the peopie
and give all a chance to be heat I
befoie any recommendation Is made
either way. Another feature or th"
question developed yesterday. Th
Impression ihat a special act of Co 1
giess must b obtained In order to
get permission to build s bridge over
the bay. Is said to ls erroneous, sill
it was stated by a man who should
know bewind question, that a siiertal
act of Congress only applies when
such bridge Is to span waters be
