COMMISSIONERS MEETINGS
County and Court House Levy Con
sidered-0tler Business
Came up Later

The county commissioners met at
the court house Monday morning but
did not convene for business until
o'clock. The business was the
levying of the county tax for this year
and the levying of the court house
tax.
Before adjourning Monday tn
county commissioners made the first
year tax levy for the new court house
of two and half mills on the dollar.
They did this after fully considering
the proposition in all lights, reading
the law and discussing the compare
tive hardship which the agricultural
community is experiencing this year
The law compelled some levy to be
made and the board finally decided to
carry out the original plans.
Only by making the full levy at this
time could delay in completing the
new court house be prevented. The
present valuation for taxable purposes

the fund and it was estimated that three
years would complete the sum, or 81, o.
97S.1O to which is to be added the pro-
ceeds of the sale OF the present court
house and site. 1t was figured in this
estimate that the couuty's valuation
would increase each year and it will.
With the new railroads building. the
new factories and Improvements and
Increase in real estate the levy of p
mills will raise more money, but it
seems doubtful. unless nrrauuements
can be made with some rood fairy con-
tractor. that with a less levy than 81
mills this year the conrt house could
be finished in the time expected
The levy for county road nurnoses
was also made three mills ON the dol
lar. This is a triae larger than usual
but 7, Is argued that the farmer works
