Error in the Tax Levy.

Our attention has been called to an
error in the recent tax levy made by
the Board of Commissioners, which,
though plain to be seen, had escaped
our notice. It is this: In consider
alton of the losses on taxable property
an increase Of the levy was made
necessary, and this increase was made
exclusively to the General Fund,
Leaving the leUy for school purposes
the same as last gear. We under
derstand that the levy was made on
an estimated loss of $4,000 worth of
taxable property within the county
since last years assessment. On this
basis the school fund of the county,
under the present levy, 1OiU be re-
duced $685.; that is to say, if the
loss Of property amounts to the above
estimate the School Fund Of the coun-
ty for the year 18 80 will be S2,G25 less
than it was IL 1889. This is clearly
an error on the part Of the Commits
sloners, for il any fund must be re-
duced it should not be that upon
which the education Of the children
depends. 1t Is claimed that the in
crease made to the General Fund will
scarcely DO adequate to the demands
made upon it, which is no doubt true;
but there should have been also an
increase made to the School Fund
sufficient to avoid any decrease in the
revenues for educational purposes.
An increase Of 10 cents in the levy
for school purposes would have been
80 light that no one would have felt
it, and perhaps not one in hundred
would have objected; but it is too late
to remedy the matter now, and our
schools m ust suffer in consequence.

The sale Of number Of fine horses,
the property Of L. j. Rose, of Los
Angeles, took place at New York
Wednesday. Among those sold was
the famous trotting stallion, Alcazar.
This horse was started at $4,000, and
was knocked down to Uehlein Bros,
Of Milwaukee, for s25, 300.
Buffalo Bills cowboys seem to have
astounded the Romans by riding wild
horses from the herd of the Duke of
Sermonete. The cowboys conquered
the animals in five minutes. The
average vaquero has no difficulty in
getting the batter of a horse that can
give up in that time. Such animals
are easy to ride compared with some.
