Members of the county court, ac
companied by A. M. W right, by ap
pointment met S tate Highway Com
m issioner Kiddle at the Cottonwood
bridge crossing over the John Day
river Saturday morning. Mr. K iddle
was accompanied by sta te highway
engineers Bennett and K elly . The
party made a thorough inspection of
the proposed highw ays in Sherman
county, end, although the state offi
cia ls would not make any definite
statem ents, it g iv es a ll parties con
cerned s better understanding o f the
road and highw ay situation in Sher
man county.
A m eeting was held a t the court
bouse Saturday morning to discuss
the proposed two mHl educational tax
to be voted on a t the May primary
electio n . We have not reed the pro
posed lew , but understand that it re
peals the present sta te and county per
capita tax and substitutes a direct
2-m ill tax on a ll property in the
state. The fund treated ia divided
among the schools ia each county on a
I basis o f «704 for each «0 pupils er
asejor fraction per teacher. A school
d istrict does not lose th « right to levy
| a special tax if it oo votes, but a ll
district» w ill pay not less then a
2-m ill tax to the sta le, which in turn
w ill be returned to tha county and
divided as indicated above.
