FOR TAXPAYERS.
To the People of Gilmore Count,

To the People of Gilmore County:
AS you are aware by this time
that the tax levy for the year 1897
has been made by US, and that the
same is $500 on the one hundred
dollars valuation, and the same is
apportioncd to the several county
funds as follows. to-wit:
Elmore bulletin. [volume] (Rocky Bar, Idaho) 1889-1906, 1897-09-29

And it is our desire to give you n
brief statement as to why the levy
is now a higher rate than has ever
been asked of you in the existence
Of Gilmore county.
First, the State has charged the
county with total tax for State
purposes, for the year 1897, of
$10,588.69, a greater amount than
has ever been demanded before, a
raise in one year of 81 ,S92.14. This
State tax requires a levy of S5 cents.
Current Expense, as it's name
implies, is a fund out of which all
expenses Of the county are paid,
with the exception of school, inter
est, outstanding warrants and road.
This requires a levy of $1.75.
1t is necessary that a bridge be
built this year over South Boise
river at Pine Grove, and a levy Of
Is cents is required for the road
and bridge fund.
The interest on the bonded in
debtedness of the county requires q
levy of 81 40 to raise a sum neces-
sary to meet the interest coupons
This interest charge amounts tC
1920 yearly. These bonds were
placed in 1896 and commenced t.
bear interest on July /, 1896, bu
the then Board of Commissioners
did not make levy to meet this
interest for the then current yea
of 4,l10, and as a natural conse
quence the present Board mus
meet this deficiency by an increased
levy for interest. 1t would seen
from this that taxes would hav,
been more justly equalized as t.
years and to taxpayers ability t.
pay had each years levy provided
for its own expenses.
The warrant redemption fund re
quires a levy of % cents on the on
hundred dollars of valuation.
The levy of 1895 was $500, bu
Notwithstanding this amount tn,
county fell behind to the amour
of $2,701 80, which has been re
duced by delinquent taxes of 1895
since paid, by $595.91.
The levy Of 1896, notwithstand
ing deficiency at $500 rate, was
fixed at $40, which again resulted
in deficiency for the year 1896 o
$721S.67, which has been reduced
by the delinquent taxes of 1896
since paid, Of $2,030.50, which has
to be taken care Of by the warran
redemption fund Of 1897, To re

IT is ACCEPTED
Sharpshooters Will Shoot
With National Guard.
Some New Members Added &C
the Company at Last
Meeting.

Capt. W. E. Wall presided at the
special meeting of the Sharpshooters'
Company held last evening. Thirty
members were present.
At the last meeting the matter OF an
honorary roll, and also that OF a 500
yard range were discussed. Captain
Wall reported progress in both of these
matters and asked for more time
c. c. Rhodes, Frank c. Atherton and
J. Alexander Johnson Gack) were
elected members of the company. Elk
Capt. John Kidwell was, upon appli-
cation, unanimously elected TO active
membership.
Captain Wall read the challenge
from Colonel Mclean for a 3O-man
shooting match with the regiment, and
referred the whole matter to the COM
pany, not feeling, he said, like taking
the responsibility of accepting with
out first getting the impressions of his
men.
After considerable discussion, Sen
ator McCandless offered the following
resolution, affecting the conditions up
on which the contest might be ar
ranged:
Resolved, That in all future shoot
ing contests the Sharpshooters' Com
pany will use the guns now in its pos
session, with a minimum trigger pull
OF three pounds"
In urging the passage of the resolu-
ton Captain Wall said the company
rules in shooting. During the time
since its organization the company had
frequently endeavored to arrange
matches with the military. A few con-
tests with Company d and one or two
later with b were all that could be
made out of it. AS the marksmen in
creased in proficiency, and contests
were arranged with crack organiza
tions abroad, it became necessary to
place the company on a strict sharp
shooters footing. 1t would be unfair
for the military to require the company
to go back 20 a military basis for the
proposed series of matches. He hoped
it would be settled once and for all
that the company would shoot only as
sharpshooters, with guns, sights and
trigger pulls as in daily use.
The resolution was unanimously
adopted On motion of Mr.. Marsden
Captain Wall was elected captain of
the team to meet the military, which
carried with it an acceptance of the
challenge. 1t is an understood thing
that details of the match will be ar
ranged between the two team captains.
Mr.. Marsden: Now, gentlemen,
that we have accepted the challenge of
Colonel Mclean, l wish to add that we
have no soft job before us. Our rep
utation is at stake. We must practice
at every opportunity. / will promise
to go to the range three times a week.
If we best the military, well and good;
but if they beat us, we will never hear
the last of it, Uaughter)
