light valuations, such law would not
be upon our statute books to-day to sink
into debt all the counties of the territory.
The diverting of the license moneys
from the county fund is a blow at the
credit of every new county, the bad
effect of which cannot be obviated even
by high taxation. as the levy for the
county fund is limited to six mills, and
cannot be made to exceed that amount
except by vote of the people. The law
further provides for the payment of
school officers from the county fund.
The effect of the law in Pennington
county has been to increase the debt Of
the county nearly $4,000 in the past
year It's effect is equally disastrous
with regard to the other counties Of the
Hills, and there Is no doubt is felt in
every county fthe territory. The Hills
delegation to our next legislature will
undoubtedly be united In favor of "a re-
peal of the law, but we fear, as VIC have
stated, there may be some difficulty in
the way. Should this be the case, il
might be possible at least TO have the
Black Hills counties excepted from its
provisions. 1t is however to be hoped
that the legislature, as whole, may be
made aware Of the injustice and injury
the law is working. and promptly repeal
