Editor Chronicle Until recently
your paper made a practice of pub
fishing the bills allowed by the county
court at each sitting, but of late |,
with other taxpayers in the county,
have been unable to find the list in
your columns. Why this omission,
when the law provides for their pub
lication?
The people of The Dalles have
right to know what bills are contract
ed, and |, for one, but not the only
one, think they should be published
again.
If there has been any change in the
law, perhaps the county court will tell
us about it, Otherwise, the people
should insist on their publication.
af ;. Taxpayer.
The Chronicle has not published
the list simply because the county
court makes no provision for their
publication. So far as we know, there
has been no change in the law
Mrs. F.. F.. Dano left this afternoon
