It w’ould require a very incapable
or negligent county administration to
go wrong in providing sufficient funds
for the principal or interest on its
road bonds when the section of the
Oregon law is so specific on the sub
ject. The law reads:
“Beginning with the fourth year
after the bonds are sold the county
court shall each year thereafter, un
til the maturity of bonds, set aside
as a special fund for the payment of
the bond such percentage of the face
value of the bonds as at the date of
their maturity shall aggregate the
full face value thereof. Where bonds
are issued in different series matur
ing at different times a separate re
demption fund shall be provided for
each series of such bonds. Tne
amount necessary to provide this re-1
demption fund and to pay the annual
interest on outstanding bonds shall
be added to the general levy of taxes
as may be required, which tax shall
be levied upon ail the, taxable proper
