INDEBTEDNESS.
It appearing thntitn effort is being
Mwle by certain resilient of Wheeler
vminiy U rreste llie impression that
liilliKin rswnty is rttniied by an enor
UMina ilel't ami that the new county
iUrte oir in itiiich better financial eon
itition limn Oi Ilium continues in, we
wish tosnhmita few Hgnres in regard
to the financial condition ot Gilliam
ronnty.
A shown by the recent report filed
bv Judges Mariner and Laycock nd
Cnnl v Clerk Butler, the total indebted
ness of this county ou March 4th 1809
as $32,tit3.0o. Of this amount the
mine report sets aside the enm of
I5 9a&.74 to be assumed by Wheeler
painty. It also places a valuation of
$3000 on our county buildings. Turn
ing to the last semi-annual statement of
the condition of the county made on
March 31st, 1809, we find that the re
sources of the county represented by the
amount in the hands of the county treas
urer, and the amount of unpaid taxes,
amounted to the turn of 22,293.00.
Taking the total indebtedness, then,
of 4-32,063.06 we will subtract the amount
assumed bv Wheeler. (5.985.74) which
leaves ns $20,677.31. From that amount
take the resources as shown above (fi,

save money or not by dealing with us.
The goods we carry are STRICTLY THE BEST. We could
easily get inferior goods to sell for cheaper prices but we
will not We have demonstrated to our entire satisfaction
the fact that no matter how cheap an article may be, if it is
inferior in quality, our customers remember how inferior,
and forget how cheap, the goods were. For that reason we
buy only the best, and prices quoted below are on absolutely
high grade goods.

county inasmuch as they could lie sold
it necessary ami the proceeds applied on
the debt, we will again subtract the
amount at which they were valued
($3000) from our last remainder, and we
have left the sum of $1,384 31 which is
the actual amount of our indebtedness
over and above our actual resources.
Wheeler county starts out with an in
debtedness of almost $35,000, assumed
from the three old counties, and her on
ly resource is her current tax. The
salaries of her county officers, the ex
pense of transcribing' "records, state and
school tax and the numerous incidental
a new county is bound to incur must all
be paid from that tax and when this is
done it is not likely there wil be much
left to apply on the original debt.
The Portland OreRonian has undertak
en the work of raising a large fund with
which to erect a suitable monument in
memory of the Oivgon Volunteers who
lost their lives in the rruilippines. ine
obiect is a laudable one and every sec
tion of the state should respond. We
hope to see some of Condon's patriotic
citizens start a subscription here for the
Bnrnoee. The Oregnnian headed tbe
list with a donation of $500.
The Fossil Journal gave an interest
ing illustrated write-up of the late ball
srame. iu its last issue. The Journal
editor is something of a ball player him
self and is right at home in that line of
work. The Journal is to be commended
for its enterprise and fearlessness in this
matter.
