70 School District Officers and Teachers

FRIEND Covert am constantly r.
caiying letters from School District Clerks
saying that teacheIs are scarce, and asking
me to give special examination and fayoi
to persons whom they have engaged to
teach, and who, they say, cannot stand the
test Of a regular examination, but that they
are "moral and every way worthy, and
being satisfied they will give good satisfac-
ton, there can be no risk in my giving
them certificate"
Through you, allow me 10 say to such,
that, there is no necessity Of bringing
such a class OF teachers into the field; there
are teachers in the county, who hold GER
tihcates obtained after careful examination,
and there are enough of such to supply all
the schools not engaged in the county.
Even should there not be any teachers
in tie county, there is no law giving me
any authority to grant certificates to appli
cants not able to stand the proper test.
II would 10 better to have no school
thar to place pupils under the instruction
of such as teach error instead of truth.
LII certain towns, there may be a scarcity
Of teachers; but in others there are more
than are needed. Tn Platteville district
consisting of Platteyille and Lima, only
nineteen teachers are required to teach all
the schools; hut there were thirty-fve re-
ceivel certificates. In Tafton district there
were about twenty more teachers who r.
caiyed certificates, than are necessary to
supply the schools of said district.
lido sincerely hope that school district
clerks viii weigh well the responsibility
resting poa ths m, mi con iles that when
they engage teachers. they are employing
them 10 deal, not with the trihing 'hings
Of earth, but with the immortal part of the
greatest gift with which cur Heavenly
Father has blessed US. Soon the hurlen
Of sustaining the superstructure Of cur goy-

the rising generation, and any neglect up
on our part in properly educating the chill

STATE TAx.-The State Tax to be rails
ed this year, including the money raised
for the State allowance to the families OF
soldiers, requires four ond half mill per
cent. levy upon the taxable property Of
Grant county; this will Yell $23.1ls, most
Of which will be paid back 10 the families
of soldiers during the coming current year.
In this respect Grant County viii be tQrtu-
nate for we have more soldiers families
perhaps han any other county in the
State. We are reminded also that the sol
diers from this county are sending homo
more of their earnings than any other
twenty two hundred men in the army SER

TAX PAYING.-The Town Treasures
are fling their bonds with security for town,
county and State taxes and are receiving
their tax rolls from clerks, and will be
ready very shortly to receive taxes. Treas
ury notes, Wisconsin bills of salvent banks
and county orders will be good fer taxes.
We presume the Town Treasurer will re-
ceive small currency checks for sums be.
low dollar and pay out the same for
change, it being impossible to find silver
and postage curren y enough for such pur-
pose.
Money IS plenty; the people will be
less pressed this year to raise their taxes
than at any former time. The taxes are
considerably hi her than heretofore, but
would not be near so high only for the
State paw of $500 a month allowed to the
families Of soldiers. Near half the entire
State and county tax is raised to pay this
allowance to soldiers families, otherwise
the State and county taxes would be MUCH
lower than at any time heretofore for many

Giant County Fiaancies County IaK-Aid for Sol.
dieB Famics-ROads and Bridges


+ The total valuation Of lands, lots and
personal property liable to taxation IN
Grant County is, for this year, S5.157.-
227.64. Upon this basis Of over mil
lion dollars there is levied two and
half mill tax for County ex-
penses this year, amounting to SO 849.06,
which amount includes the $4,000 for sup
port of e'iadignant families of soldiers.
The true amount levied for County expens-
es is but $7s43.0o for mis- y ar, which is
the lowest County tax raised in the Coun-
ty for near twenty years. We think
but little if any money was appropriated
this year to aid in building roads and
bridges. II 90 the County Board has
shown almost criminal negligence, for Of
all public works the roals and bridges are
most deserving of attention. Ina County
like Grant, in which most Of the grain
ulIIhSb places ilt III AtfbCSltOuo blduoNItcO "
to the strains, or across gullies from the
farms, bridges may be said to be needed
everywhere, as well as considerable aid
for roads, especially in the poorer class of
towns. The poorer towns about Boscobel
through which so many roads lead to mar
ket, are badly supplied with roads and
bridges. Same of Cassyie market roads.
Same of market roads leading to Potosi, to
Muscoda and to Mineral Point. Roads
are the arteries of life to any country, espe
cially one so billy like Giant County.
1t is more than possible however that
the Town Boards have many Of them failed
this year to petition the County Board
for aid to build bridges; most everything
Of public kind is being neglected these
times. Ifthis be the case the Town Su-
peryisors should be spurred by the people
or he replaced by men who will attend TO
their business.
