Saturday.
BOARD UNANIMOUSLY
ABOPTEDSAME BUDGET
Main Issue. Really Whether
Present School Board Is
Competent
The school budget for the coming
school year will again be submitted to
the votors of Salem and the date foi
election will be Monday, Doc. 30. Vhis
was unanimously voted at a meeting
of the board of education held last
cve-iing.
Thi budget will be practically the
same voted on last Saturday, the only
difference being two mills less. The
final re-checking of tho school census,
completed after the first budget was
adopted shows a loss 'of 328 of school
age in the district instead of 606 as
first reported.
With a credit of tho additional 338
names, tho budget to be submitted to
the assessed voters will be $93,298.34
Last year it was about $80,000. The
lovy now is 7.4 mills. Only one dis
trict in the state has a lower levy." A
majority of the first class districts lev
ied from 9 to 12 mills.
Finance Committee Reports.
The finance committee of the board,
E. T. Barnes and Waltor Winslow, in
their report, stated they had gone over
each" item separately and found that
none could b reduced, especially as the
school law is such that contracts for
tho school year were all entered into.
That the amount of money asked for
had been based on the amounts called
foi by theso contracts. That whilo the
school year ran from July 1 to July 1,
yet it is necessary to contract for
teachors and buy materials during the
summer months before the annual budg
et was submitted.
In submitting practically tlio samo
budget - tho school board again voted
and it was unanimously adopted. Direc
tor E. T. Barnes, m order that each
vote might go on separate record, called
for a record vote and as the names of
each wore called each voted in favor
of tho budget. This included Director
Clark who has in reality been opposed
to the budget and the actions of the
other four members, of the board, As
the school record now stands, Clark vot
ed for submitting the budget.
Could Legally Borrow.
In explainig the law with reference
to school budgets and when they mv
turned down, Director Walter Winslow

said that the sehool board could legally
borrow money or issue warrants to car
ry on tho sehool and whatever "amount
was needed up to $100,000 t'ould 1p
turned into the assessor nxt year with
no chance for the electors to etjurnt
themselves. Then there would be the
regulur budget and at this time next
year and tho taxpayers would have
two years of school expenses to pay in
one levy.
According to the law, there is no
way of closing up the schools. What
ever amount is needed may be borrow
ed and the district will then have the
principal sum and interest to pay at
a later data, the amounts borrowed can
be certified up to the assessor and that
ended the matter as far as voters were
concerned. He didn't defend such a
law, but it was there and Attorney
General Brown had so advised. them.
No Use Mincing Matters.
A. A. Lee, who lias been oiVMm school
board 15 years, told the directors thero
was no use niinciiig matters. That in
tho city there was an element that had
attempted to defeat cvory school board
Bnd every budget and that tho samo
clement was out to discredit, the board
this year. That at the election Dec.
30 this dissatisfied clement would vote
against everything just -because it had
alwaysbee n against every school board
and that it was up to th.ose wlio wore
satisfied with tho schools to come out
and sustain the board.
Ask for $13,000 Excess
While the budget asked for is about
$13,000 in excess of last year, it do-

If your stomach is continually kick

and distressed; if you belch gas and
sour fond into tho mouth, then j-ou
need Mi-o-na Stomach Tablets.
Mi-o-na Stomach Tablets give in

velop.-.cd that during the past year tn
board had paid off $5000 in popular
loan notes, and that if it had not paid
off this indebtedness, it would have
redwed the lovy just that much. It al
so developed that a few years ago the
levy was 8.4 mills and that tho board
had been gradually cutting it down
jeach year until now it asks 7.4 mills,
although the lowest levy was reached
last year.
It also developed in the"' discussions
last night that Superintendent Todd
had maintained tho full efficiency of
the school with 107 toachcrs this year
while ono year- ago it was 118. That
when Mr. Todd became superintendent
the board was about to build four small
houses to accommodato pupils but that
by a re-arrangement ho savod the dis
trist this expense.
Favor Budget TTnaniniously.'
However, as the matter now stands,
every member on tho scnuui k-o i
on record as voting in favor of sub
mitting the budget to tho assessed vot
ers Dec. 30,
It is also well known that a determin
ed fight is to be mado, not so much
on tho budget as to discredit tho
present board of education and the
question will be put to the voters Dec.
30 is whether tho board is capable of
handling the affairs of tho district or
whothor the board is inconipotont. Tho
board of education consists of Chaun
coy Bishop, E. T. Barnes, Harloy O.
