FOR TAXPAYERS.
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
apportioned to the several county
funds as follows, to-wit:
Elmore bulletin. [volume] (Rocky Bar, Idaho) 1889-1906, 1897-09-22

And 1t is our desire to gave you a
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 a total tax for State
purposes, for the year 1897, of
$40, 588.69, a greater amount than
has ever been demanded before, a
raise in one year Of 81 ,892.14. This
State tax requires levy Of IS cents.
Current Expense, as its 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 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
25 cents is required for the road
and bridge fund.
The interest on the bonded in
debtedness of the county requires a
levy of $1.4O to raise a sum neces-
sary to meet the interest coupons.
This interest charge amounts to
1920 yearly. These bonds were
placed in 1896 and commenced to
bear interest on July 1, 1896, but
the then Board of Commissioners
did not make levy to meet this
interest for the then current year
Of 81, ITO, and as a natural conse-
quence the present Board must
meet this deficiency by an increased
levy for interest. 1t would seem
from this that taxes would have
been more justly equalized as to
years and to taxpayers ability to
pay had each years levy provided
for its own expenses.
The warrant redemption fund re-
quires levy Of 25 cents on the one
hundred dollars of valuation.
The levy of 1895 was $500, but
Notwithstanding this amount the
county fell behind to the amount
of $2,701.32, which has been re-
duced by delinquent taxes of 1895,
since paid, by $595.91.
The levy of 1896, notwithstand
ing a deficiency at $3.50 rate, was
fixed at $40, which again resulted
in deficiency for the year 1896 of
$7.218.67, 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 warrant
redemption fund OF 1897. To re-
sumo:
Deficiency of 1895, IS 2,7o1. 80
Deficiency of 1896, $50. 5,188.17
Extra to State for 1897 .. 1924
Interest, 1896, ...,.... 4,110.00

Chicago, Feb. IL
WHEAT-Opened steady this morning
at a trife over yesterdays closing figures.
The foreign news was rather conflicting.
Consols were weak which caused a re-
newal of the war talk and this was re-
sponsible for the steadiness at the open
ing Cables however, were lower at the
opening and the second Liverpool cable
reported a still further decline. This eff
fectually Squelched any apprehension as
to the European political outlook, it being
regarded certain that wheat would not
decline if any real danger of trouble eX-
listed. Cudahy was reported to have I'M
loaded a large line. May opened at 1880
1850 against yesterdays closing price of
1850. 1t sold down slowly to 75Sic. when a
reaction occurred and the market recov-
cred to 76Ac. where it sold at the end of
the first hours trading. Minneapolis re-
ported a good flour demand and north
west receipts were light, 265 cars, compar-
ed with 239 last week and 1884 on the COR
responding day of the year before.
CORN-Nothing particular doing in
the cOarser grains during the first hour,
oats receiving the better support though
trading in both was narrow May corn
opened unchanged at 233sc and eased off
with wheat to 231Ac. Local receipts were
81 cars
OATS-May oats opened a shade higher
at 171sc, sold at lie and recovered to 171slp
174c. Local receipts were 81 cars.
