it will be necessary to issue Bonds

the probable amount, as near as

before the said Bonds can be dis
posed of and realized upon, there
being no money in the Treasury of
the county applicable to the pay
ment of such indebtedness, or so
much of said sum as may be neces-
sary to fund such Indebtedness and

ELECTION NOTICE.

In pursuance of the provisions of
Section 1910, of Chapter vi of
Title XIII of the Revised Statutes
of Idaho, as amended at the third !
session of the legislature of the
state of Idaho, Approved March |
Sth, 1895: The Board of County |
Commissioners Of Kootenai County, |
State of Idado, made an examina-
ton into the financial condition Of
the county aforesaid, and after ex-
aiming the records and files of
Board and the reports of the Audi
tor and Treasurer of the county,
find that exclusive of the bonded
Indebtedness of the county, that
there is an outstanding indebted
ness, as shown by warrants issued
prior to the second Monday of Jam
uary, A. D. 1895, of $49, 5S1.24 up
on which there is accrued interest
up to the 3rd day of June, A. d.
1895, as near as the same can be
estimated, amounting to $4,O47.91
which warrants the Board finds are
valid and legal obligations of the
county. The Board further finds
that there is now in the Treasury
of the county no money applicable
to the discharge of such indebted
ness, leaving the outstanding in
debtedness of the county as evidenc-
ed by such warrants, including in
terest as above specified, at S47,-
629.21, and the Board further finds
that said warrants are drawing in
terest at the rate of seven per cent,
per annum which the Board be-
lieves could be funded by the issue
of Bonds bearing interest not to ex-
coed six per cent, per annum. Said
warrants are not at par thus de-
preciating the credit of the county
and causing those who furnish
materials or perform services for
the county to charge above the
market rate for such materials and
services, thus greatly increasing the
cost of carrying on the bushes;
of the county, and further the Leg
islature of the State of Idaho at it;
last session passed Revenue Ac
by the provisions of which, in cas-
the outstanding Indebtedness o
any of the counties of the state i
not funded by the issue of Bond
for the redemption of same, tn
Board of Commissioners of sucl
Counties are required to levy
special tax for the redemption an,
payment of said warrants, and
would seem that in view of the pres
ent depression 10 trade and bust
ness that it would be unwise t
place any heavier burdens on tn
Tax payers of the county, alread
necessarily heavily taxed, by tn
imposition of any additional ia
unless sanctioned by vote of tn
county. For these reasons theintei
ests of the county require and IL
Board deem it for the public goo'
to issue Bonds of the county
