THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF GILLIAM
COUNTY. OREQON.
OBJECTS TO THE CHANGE.
Uowe Creek, Jan. 29th.
The consolidation of our road
diotricta and the levying of another
tax for coyote bounty, have attract
ed the attention of all the voters
and taxpayers in this most south
ern end of Gilliam county. From
Cor. in the Globe we see that we
are not the only ones who condemn
the action of our county court
on these matters. From Maxwell
Ramsby, formerly assessor of Clack
iuias county, we learn the follow
ing interesting facts: .
Clackinias county years ago con
solidated their road districts into
two road districts, collected the
road poll tax in cash and appoint
ed two supervisors, paying them $5
per day -to oversee the work. The
result was, the money was all ex
pended in a short time and the
roads near and about towns only
were worked and put in condition,
the balance of the county roads be
ing entirely neglected. The dis
gust of the people was shown at
the next election of county officers.
Although all were nominated, not
oneoftheold officials was re-elected.
We can not help but think our
county court is going to meet with
the same experience. It will be
impossible for roads to receive
proper attention in a county this
. Bize by two supervisors, and good
ness knows our taxes are high
enough without creating two new
offices at the expense of us taxpay
ers. As no one seems to know
anything about the new regulations
the taxpayers would like for our
county judge, or anyone of the
board, to explain by answering the
following questions in the columns
of the Globe:
When and by whom is this new
established road poll tax ($2) to
be collected? How is the money
to be expended over the three hun
dred miles, more or less, of county
roads? Is it an equal portion to
every mile of county road, or is
each precinct to receive the .full
amount of money collected for road
purposes in such precinct, for the
benefit of roads therein.
Are the two supervisors expect
ed to work these 300 miles of old
roads and build new roads besides,
with their two working crews, or
are they to hire crews for every
presinct in the spring of every
year, when roads should be worked,
and put in condition for travel?
How and by what means are the
two supervisors to repair and build
roads after the road money is ex
pended before the roads have all
been worked or built; or when
washouts occur, caused by the an
nual visits of waterspouts and
heavy rains.
Our old road districts as they
were, numbering 20. were even too
large for the amount of people liv
ing therein, especially when water
spouts visited a district in several
places at once, and we can't see
how our county court can expect
to have the roads repaired and pot
in condition promptly by only two
supervisors in the county.
These regular washouts were the
cause of the people petitioning the
county court to establish new road
districts, thereby making them
smaller as the county settled up,
so as to be able to repair roads
nromDtlv and build rtew roads. If
the two supervisors are to hire
crews for every precinct for all
times, then we think the appoint
ing of the two supervisors will only
be an extra expense to the taxpay
ers of this county.
The county roads of Gilliam
county are in far better shape and
condition now than many roads in
other counties. Our roads, handled
under the old system, with the as
sistance of two road machines, can,
we believe, be built and kept in
shape with a good deal less expense
to the taxpayers than under the
new regulations.
Commissioner Clymer spoke of
the county court intending to make
the road poll tax $1 less and col
lect $2 in cash instead, and have
the several supervisors hire their
crews. It seems to us the county
court should have tried this first.
The sheriff could collect the $2 road
tax while collecting other taxes,
then the county clerk could notify
the several supervisors of the
amount collected for their districts
and the supervisors could draw by
checks on the county treasurer un
til their share be used up.
There is no doubt that the super
visor can get more work done bv
hiring his own crew of men. If
we must pay the cash we are in
favor of paying it under the old
system.
. Our county court surely has the
I Bet
Coutfh Byrup. Taniot Hood. Vte ft 1
road fever, and coyote bounty fever
combined, in its most malignant
form. The taxpayers of this end
of the county respectfully ask our
county court to reconsider these
new regulations' and place the 1 j
mill tax lexy for coyote bounty
with our school fund. Let the
county court increase our school
fund so we will not be compelled
to send our children to schools in
other counties. It would also en
able the children of our poorer
neighbors, who are not able to pay
rate bills, to, receive at least three
months schooling every year. There
are several school districts in this
county where the people can't have
three "months term on account of
lack of funds. This great draw
back (our poor school facilities) is
the main cause of this county los
ing so many good citiiens, who are
compelled to leave here to educate
their children. It also keeps our
county from settling up faster.
In the matter of education our
county board seems to take but
little interest. A 4-mill tax, which
the law compels them to levy, is
leviedbut that is all. We havn't
heard of a county in the state that
levies so small a tax for school
purposes as Gilliam county does.
But Gilliam . county takes the
lead in offering a large bounty on
coyote scalps, at the expense of its
taxpayers, for the benefit or a very
few sheep owners. In placing this
coyote bounty tax with our school
fund it will also enable the several
districts to employ the best teach
ers, thereby improving our schools
greatly and this will induce our
people to stay and educate their
children here.
All the taxpayers in this end of
the county object very much to the
levying of a tax for a coyote boun
ty, but are perfectly satisfied to
pay a tax for school purposes. For
this reason we would like to see the
lj-mill tax added to our school
fund.
On Nov. 3d we got up a petition
asking our county court to stop
paying bounty on coyote scalps.
Ab we never" heard . of it, it must
have been lost. It seems to us
rather strange that our county
court, after the experience of last
summer, (we refer to the backward
ness of our sheepmen in paying
their share of the bounty) should
again levy a tax for a coyote boun
ty. As long as our neighboring
counties refuse to offer a bounty it
is useless to undertake to exterm
inate the coyote, as they keep com
ing in by droves. Furthermore,
we think it unfair to be taxed con
tinually for the benefit of the few
sheepmen and have our schools
neglected on the strength of it.
Some sheepmen even object to this
tax. They say that if all sheep
owners furnished their herders with
guns and cartridges to enable the
herders to shoot coyotes they would
not be bothered much. The trouble
is, most sheep owners expect the
herders to furnish their own guns
and ammunition and the herders
justly refuse to do this.
If our Sheepmen'e Union muBt
have a bounty on coyote scalps, let
them tax themselves sufficiently to
pay such bounty. The taxpayers
are getting tired of being taxed for
the benefit of probably a hundred
sheepmen. II. H.
