Never in its History has Burleigh
County Been Better Governed :
Than Now.
The Cold Facts.

For the past two years there has been
a great deal of trouble in the manage
ment of Burleigh county affairs. Charges
and counter charges have been made.
Two commissioners have been suspend
ed from Office and two others were ap-
pointed in their places. An examination
of the county expenses for the past three
years is interesting and ought to be of
some profit. Is it too late to lock the
stable doors?
Here IRE the figures as copied from
the records in the county auditors and
~treasurer's office:

Under a recent ruling of Judge Temple
ton, OF Grand Forks, in the Nelson coun-
ty warrant case, the county commission
ers have no authority to expend money in
excess of the tax levy. This proposition
is not seriously disputed by any well-in-
formed person. The records show this
state of affairs:

The state board of equalization both last

compromised with the railroad on the tax
matter. Here are the amounts that the

1t will he seen by the above figures
that the expenses of the county for the
year 1890 we're $22 .48 less than the
expenses of 1889, and the expenses
already incurred this year together with
a maximum estimate for the balance of
the year, will be $2,234.29 less than last
year. The expenses in 1889 exceeded
the tax levy by SIG, 1859, but in 1890
this condition of affairs was reversed and
the expenses were 81, 567.9 0 less than the
tax levy, and this year the expense will
be about $1,000 less than the levy.
These figures are reliable and speak for
themselves. Every taxpayer is inter
ested in them, for it is they who have to
foot the bill. a I-
In view of the fact that a commissioner
is to be elected in the second district,
these figures are interesting. Shall the
county run headlong into debt or live
within her means. This question will be
answered at the polls. on November 3.

her fine social qualities rendered her IL
great acquisition to the community.

discrimination. During the spare hours

mind with English literature and there
were few subjects upon which she could
not converse fluently and intelligently.

had befriended in the hour of need. Her
