I, The county levy for county
funds was W n mills, Have the
commissioner!? a legal right to con
tract to expend eleven mills out of
the same year's taxes?
3, It being agreed with 1'arkcr
and Van Winkle that tney are to
receive eleven inills of the tax on
the property found not on the
original roll, will it be possible for
any taxpayer who is on the supple
mentary roll to pay ' n part of his.
taxes in county warrants?
3. If a part of the taxes are paid
in warrant." will these warrants be
turned over to the "sinking fund"
or will the sheriff or treasurer re
place these warrants with cash from
the other taxes?" '
4. Has tho hheriff the right to
levy and collect a 4,3 mills state
tax, well knowing that it is not
intended to pay the money thus
collected to the slate?
5. If therouuty intends kecpjng
both state and county Lixcs, cannot
both of these bo paid in county
warrants?
6. Would jt be fair and lawful
to take cash out of the county fund
and exchange for waiiauts paid in
to tjic sinking fund?
7. If this were done would not
a warrant holder have a legitimate
action against the officer and his
bondsmen who did it?
8, If it is not done, and war
rants arc accepted jn payment of
taxes on supplementary roll, what
warrant of law have the officers of
the county to re-issue these war
rants, or in other words, "when a
warrant is once paid Into the sheriff
as cash 011 taxes, is it not then dead
and stands only for cancellation?
9. Where property was assessed
by the assessor and he failed to put
it on the-roll, will the contractors
be allowed eleven mills of that tax
also?
10. When a resident of the
county was never visited or called
on by the assessor or deputy for his
assessment, will that property also
lv couipi,llwd to prfV its percentage?
11. The law says the assessor
shall ben in to assess on the 1st of
March, of each ycarj the assessor is
now working on a private contract;
will the county court allow him
f jer ilav as assessor also?
1 J. Of what use to the countv
urn both the supplementary roll
and the present owner map?

legitimate why was it not wmplet

Ajsea. liny Notes.
On Saturday, March 3rd, at one
o'clock p. 111. The hrst populist
meeting of Lower Abrfa precinct in
augerated idolatrous (iii the old
parties'- eyes) ceremonies at the
Waldport school house. "There
were quite a number present; war
horses, wheel horses and other fa
mous horses from across the river,
Coon hollow, and elsewhere, punctr
ually on time. After the election
of J. M. Doty to the chair and V,
R. Wakefield secretary, the Omaha
platform was read and inadequately
commented upon, discussion being
invited by the secretary, On the
termination of iln. discussion all
who desired to "ptrrticipate in the
festivities projwr were requested to
come forward and endorse the Oma
ha platform by signing the club roll.
With clastic step 8 of the number
responded and Messrs. Doty and
Wakefield w ere elected delegates to
the county convention, A. II.
Reynolds was nominated for pre
cinct; constable nnd W. R. Wake
field received the nomination for
justice of the peace. The meeting
then adjourned,'
On Friday evening the promised
schqoj entertainment materialized.
Recital, drama, supper of clam, and
dance adorned the program. A
committee .ippointcd selected and
prepared the choicest dams from
the famous Kckman slough. The
dining rooms of the Alsea and
Waldpoit houses were donated to
the committee on clams to srve
supper 111, and something like one
hundred tickets of 35 cents and 35
cent denomination were sold, real
izing in the neighborhood of thirty
odd dollars, some seventeen of
which were deposited with the
school clerk, the remainder going
for expenses. Kverything appeared
to go smoothly; some after 'supping
at one house sampled soup at the
other, and vice versa. Satisfaction
reigned, with perhaps but one ex:
ccption, and that not native to the
soil, A visitor from Tidewater,
unused to the complexion of bi
valve soup imagined t to be chalk
and water and it took quite a lot
imbibed at both houses to convince
mm ot 111s error, me drama was
excellently performed and gave
