Held at the City Hall to Levy Taxes for (1898. Tbi! meeting at the city hall Mon . day night was attended by a small oooyoi representative tax payers. Adam Ohmart called to order and School Clerk Flag kept the minutes. Ills statement of the tinanclal condi tion who read as It has been published In this paper and It was voted to levy aslx mill tax. A statement of the county clerk was read showing the assessed valua tion or Salem district to be 32,003,005 for 1807, as against $2,708,101 for 1800. This shows a decrease of valuation for purposes of taxes of $102,426. A six mill levy for 1807 produced a tax of $17,210.16. but of this only $13.. 827.07 was received by thedlstrlct, the rest oeing uennqucnt. Tiie six nun tax this year will levy $15,034, but at the above ratio may not yield over $12,000 revenue. the Journal Monday printed the follewing: There Is a bonded debt of $43,650, drawing $2930 a year interest, The floating debt before any tax becomes due will amount to $20,000 In round figures drawing seven per cent. The annual Interest burden will average about $1000. Running ex penses for year Is $21,882, or annual expenses In all of $25,882. Received rrom taxes una tuition last year 17,41U.7. Wc may not have been able to cor rectly determine tho running ex penses of the schools from Mr. Flagg's report, which is only nine months. Mr. Flagg has not served a year and hence his report does not show the year's receipts and expenses. But we arc unable to tlgurc out that a six mill levy will meet running expenses. This matter ought to be more fully explained at the next meeting. As nearly as wc can flirurc it. the district Is a year behind on current expenses, und because the warrants druw no Interest the district must pay a bank seven per cent on from ten to tweuty thousand dollars all the time. The school board, w Itliout law or authority from the people, make these loans on their own notes, or the teachers would have to tuke dis counted warrants, As the salaries of the teachers are not too high, and the board only docs what it seems obliged to do In the matter, there Is u change in school legislation necessary. Ore gon has had notoriously bad nchool legislation. This district paid the past year 7, 8 or 9 per cent on Its liondcd debt and current expense ac count. The law should be so amended that school warrants would draw 0 per cent Interest and then anyone could buy them. No more bonds should be Issued un ices payable on demand of tho dle trlct and then all the idle capital at home and abroad would be bidding to refund them at from three to four per cent interest. Tho school finances aro not In a creditable business-like condition, and the mutter of reform ing them In the interest of the tax payer, ami not of tho money lender should engage the earnest attention of the people. II COUNT! TAX LEV! Is Three Mills Less Than for Last Year. .i AMOUNTS TO FIFTEEN MILLS. Precinct Judges and Clerks Are Selected by the Court. The Marion County Court recon vened this mornlnt? and during tho artcrnoon made the county tax levy and selected the precinct judges and clerks who will serve at the ensuing elections. The tax levy this year for Marlon county amounts to 15 mills, and is apportioned as follews: State 31 hchool 5 Indigent Soldier 01 County 0 4-10 Total 15 Adding to this the 6 mill school tax levied Monday evening for District No. 24, and alo the city tax which will in all probability be 10 mills will makeu tatal tax thlsycarof 31 mills.

The woes or inula wero due to tho closing of the India mints to the coinage of silver. j.ne iaiuino mere was one or money, not of rood. 1 Wolcott considers the.present out look for an international agreement hopeless and abandons that light. He then shows that the attitude of President McKlnley and Secretary Gage are aOsolutely opposed to each other. Ills conclusion is as follews: "Whatever difference of opinion may exist as to the ability or this country alone to maintain the parity between silver and gold, thoro is no question that the concurrence of other nations would help the cauo or bi metallism in the Uniten States, aud efforts to secure it ought to receive 1110 support cr every citizen who Is op posed to gold monometallism.
