FORMER GUARDSMEN
MAY HAVE TO PAY
County Auditor Asks if They Enjoy
5000 Tax Exemption

Whether ex-members of the national
guard share the tax emption of $500 en-
joyed by their active brethren, is a
question which County Auditor Krah-
mer has asked the county attorney to
answer. o. H. O'Neill, the assistant
county attorney, is Of the opinion that
they do not.
Another question bothering the coun-
ty auditor, which he has asked the
county attorney to answer is, how an
assignment of the claim of A. Nelson
for pay, due for work done in connec-
ton with the city and county hospital,
to f. L. McGhee can be given effect. A
warrant to Nelson and indorsed by Nc
Ghee was turned back at the county
treasurer's Office, and, as the auditor
cannot issue warrants in the names of
assignees, the matter is at a standstill.
