SOME FACTS WORTH CONSIDERING
When the taxpaying citizens Of
Omaha and Douglas county come to
decide how to cast their ballots next
month they should find it worth while
considering some facts connected with
their county government.
The management of the county
business has been ia the hands of
republicans for two years, previous to
which there was protracted riot of
reckless extravaganza under demo-
cratic county boards.
For the year 1904 with the demo-
cratic county board in control the
county found itself in debt $3.50, 900
when the balance. sheet was struck
October 1. For the year 1906, with
republican county board in control,
the democratic legacy of debt has
been cleaned up and the balance sheet
showed on October 1, $1SS,000 on
hand to pay bills for ten months to
come.
In the democratic year, 1904, reg
istered county warrants we're out
standing October against the gen
eral fund to the amount of s225,OO
and the board had $4,000 to meet
expenses for ten months. In 1895
the registered warrants against the
general fund outstanding October /
amounted to only $4,000 and the
board had $3.50, 900 to meet the ex-
penses for the ensuing ten months.
In 1904 the county tax levy was
1873 mills. while in 1906 It had been
reduced to 1874 mills AS between
these two years, the county had be-
come the beneficiary of the collections
under the scavenger law and the
gradual increase in the assessment
roll. but it also had to meet several
large items of additional expense
such as for the juvenile court and foI
primary elections, with which the pre-.
ceding democratic boards were moi
bothered.
On such a showing the taxpayers
who are specially interested in good
government on its financial side
should be able to count the cost Of
