The Taxpayers League Frames Three Bills Limits Expenditures "to Levy and Holds the Commission ers Liable. The' Taxpayers' League ha framed three uUdltionai bills, which ltavy been given to the Multnomah delegation. Th bills all relate to the coupty. The first bill seeks to limit the expen ditures to the amount of the annual lev for such purposes. It has been the cut torn heretofore for th County Court to set th estimate for th expenditure, and to make a levy accordingly at so many mill on th dollar of valuation, and then to disregard the levy, spend more than was allowed,- and lsu war rants for the payment of same. This bill seeks t hold ths county commissi! liable for any excess expenditures. text of th bill is a follows;,, COMMISSIONERS LIABLE "Section . I .Th Bounty expenditures hall be confined to th amount of the annual levy therefor; and member of th County Court or Bogrd of County Commissioners, or any other count offi cial, wlxy shall authorise, Inctu-, ; cause or create or officially approve any; expense or liability for the county In excess of the amount,; of the- levy that may have been mad,for county expenditures here inafter denned, shall be jointly and sev erally noble,' individually ant personally, fof the amount of such excess.

"Sec. 2. Th County Court or Board of County Commissioners may, It they deem ft necessary, order and direct a special levy to be made 'of not exceeding one half mill on each dollar of valuation to raise funds to meet any unforeseen con tingency which, in their judgment, should be dealt with in order to prevent serious loss or injury to th county. The funds thus raised shall be set apart and used L ior suun contingency only. "Sec. 3. All acts or part of act .in conflict with the provision of this act are hereby repealed." SALARIES REDUCED. Another bill directs a blow at the sal ary of the county- commissioners, -seeking" to require them to work for every day' pay.. ThJ will materially reduce their salaries, "as iV has been the custom of late .years-to-pay -&' eniwsBWtrir 3 per dji-m regardless of whether be did anything for the county. - Holiday and Sundays were counted, also, thus making the salaries of the county commissioners quite to be sought after, . Another provision of the bill Is that all purchases of. supplies which exceed 1100 shall be advertised, and given. to the lowest bidder. Another provision stipu lates that all advertisements shall b given out for' bids, and, shall go to th lowest responsible newspaper bidder. The newspaper would be known aa th county Official paper.
