sale of Lands for School Fund.
Chapter eighteen is a money max
ing law for regulating the sale OF
for the benefit OF the school fund
Tax Levies for School Purposes.
Chapter nineteen is another very
important bill. relating to education,

TO maintain FIVE months school
The building fund" is the fund TO
provide school houses, furniture, fuel.
etc, and under existing law the Boards
of Education can levy a tax OF forty
five cents on the hundred donar TOR
this urpose In the future this levy
is restricted to twenty cents, except
when a new building is being erected
and an added tax is absolutely neces-
sary. The effect of the law is, in nine
out of every ten districts in the State,
to insure a saving Of twenty cents in
the tax levies.
The Teachers" fund tax remains at
a maximum of fifty cents. If necessary
to levy more to get FIVE months of
school a special or emergency levy is
authorized: but only in order to get
enough money to run the school five
months.

Chapter twenty authorizes the APP
| Dointment and use OF penitentiary
guards to convey convicts from jails-
A Money Saver Conveying convicts.
Chapter twenty-one prescribes how
convicts shall be aiken from the coun-
ties to the penitentiary. This act will
save the State, in about two years, the
entire cost of the special session OF
the Legislature. 1t relieves the sher-
ifs of this duty and imposes it upon
guards from the penitentiary, thus in
surfing a great saving to the State over
the present method of taking a deputy
sheriff for eac prisoner.

Der the directors and ~reOrganiZes the
board of the State Reform School The
act provides that the counties having

Chapter fifteen is one of the most
important acts and provides for the re
assessment of all the lands of the
State in 1905, upon which the tax
levies of 1906 will be laid. No other
assessment of real estate is provided
for until the year 1909. The as
seSSment must be completed and
the books filed on or before August 1.
The State Tax Commissioner appoints
one. commissioner from each county.
Assistants may be appointed if ap-
proved by the Board. of Public Works.
All real estate must be assessed at it's
true value The law makes the county
court a board of equalization in each
county, and the State Board of Public
Works acts as a final board of equal
iZation. 1t is the most complete sys-
tenn yet devised for occurring an accu-
rate assessment of the real estate
property of this State. The Tax Com
missioner supervises the commission
erS' work, heretofore lone with little
or no system. This n assessment
holds until 1909, when the work of as
sessing real estate will be done by the
rex IiIIS elecieu ountS assessor
Prohibiting Expenditures.
Chapter sixteen forbids the unau-
thoriZcd expenditure of public moneys
by any officer of State, by any county
court or board of e]ducation: prohibits
them from making unauthorized pub
lie improvements, creating thereby a
public debt. This law alone is worth
several times the cost of the special
session of the Legislature. and is a dis
ttnct reform measure.
Methods of Accounting.
Chapter seventeen provides for SUI
pervislon of, and a uniform method in,
the accounting of public institutions,
thus %effecting economies.
