dren a better education and have more
money in the bank than the rural pop
ulation of any country in the world.

Island county, whose assessed valua-
ton is considerably less than that of
this county, and population smaller,
was over SOS, 900 in debt Oh the first of
July, as shown by the auditors state
ment published in the Times. Of this
Indebtedness $50, 900 is bonded, the re-
mainder being in the form of outstand-
ing warrants and interest. The total
Indebtedness of this county is only
$14, 577.60, and no part of it is bonded.
If the commissioners could and would
devise some way to fund this floating
debt and issue bonds at a low rate OF
interest and put the county on cash
basis, a considerable saving would be
effected and the county's credit materl-
ally improved. There ought to be some
way to avoid the necessity of issuing
more Certificates of Indebtedness" in
stead of warrants. The commissioners
are of course acting in good faith and
in accordance with legal advice, but if
sary it is wrong, and the wrong should
be righted as soon as possible. 1t is not
thought necessary to "beat the devil
around the stump in that manner in
other counties where the limit of in
debtedness is technically exceeded; and
with all due respect to the commits
sioners and attorney we confess that
we are not able to understand why such
policy should be deemed either neces-
sary or advisable here. The obligations
of this county, whether i'll the form of
certificates or warrants, on the basis of
the present assessed valuation and total
Indebtedness, ought to be worth at least
ninety-five cents on the dollar, at the
legal rate of interest, instead Of only
IS cents, and no market for them even
at that price.

was able to be around. Mr.. Shafer has
recommended it to many others and says
it is excellent for any kind of a bruise or
