$63,948 CALL IS ISSUED
FDR COuNlr WARRANTS
Indebtedness Now Reduced to
$350,000 Says Treasurer;
Deficit Being Paid Off.
A call for all road warrants en
forced prior to November 22 1921 was
issued yesterday toy W. W. Everhart,
county treasurer. The call amounts
to $63,948.76, and reduces the out
standing warrant indebtedness of the
county to $360,000.
Two more calls are to be issued this
year, Everhart states, representing
the final collection of taxes, and they
will amount to about $25,000. " The
outstanding indebtedness varies, the
treasurer explains, with endorsement
of warrants to hold over until taxes
of the W. O. W, Masons and Artisans.
Mr. Coon was born at Hersey, Wls-
Lconsin, 49 years ago and had just re
cently moved to his former home in
Oswego and had just finished remod
ling and fixing his home up again.
He is survived by a wife, Grace M.

Cut In R. R. Rates
Is Said Too Small
OSWEGO, Nov. 22 Many Oswego
people are not at all satisfied witl
the Southern Pacific company for
lower fares bycutting the round trip
single fare from 40 cents to 30 cents.
The single fare one way remains at
the rate of 20 cents The monthly
commutation ticket boot remains at
the peak price as does the
come in, but the total amount of the lne x montns family ticket and the
indebtednes which represents an over
draft, i3 about $350,000. This, the
treasurer says, has not increased dur
ing the past year, and is being gradual
ly reduced through the provision of a
$40,000 fund in the county budget for
payment of outstanding road warrants.
The delinquency in taxes this year.
acording to the figures compiled toy I.
D. Taylor, head of the tax department,
will not be materially increased this
year over 1921 collections which will
result in no great change in the pres
ent indebtedness through non-payment
of taxes.
