Walker, judge of the circuit court, in a Washington county case may result in considerable benefit to e schools in this county and to those in every part of the state. A school clerk in a friendly suit sued the county treasurer to enforce him to cash an- elementary school fund warrant before paying the state tax out of the funds available The judge ruled that as both the three mill state tax and the two mill elementary school tax were state taxes it was proper for the county treasurer to pay the elementary school fund and let the state fund go delinquent instead of the school fund. . , In Sherman county the. elementary school fund is delinquent a trifle over $10,000 although we have paid the state it’s due. Now with this decision to go by it seems that hereafter the court will order the treasurer to pay the delinquent warrants on the ele mentary fund instead of sending all the available cash to the state. Certainly sUch a move would relieve the school situation to a great extent in this county. .... The state, we presume, could get along without the enure contribution from the counties while the schools are finding • most impossible to do so- If the delinquent $10,000 could be paid to school districst having this sum due them from the county would make the warrant situation much brighter and the continue. tion of schools much more certain. ------- o------- ' MORE FQR THE PRODUCER Newberg Creamery Inc.
