BEST MEDIUM POOR

In connection with this report allow me to con-
graduate you, gentlemen of the board and the
taxpayers in Grant County, upon the action of
the state Board of Assessment in the able man
agement of the tax levy, as shown by the follow
ing report:
More than two and a half million of dollars will
be collected by the state from the people this
year, notwithstanding the fact that none of it will
be for the running expenses of the government.
Only S157, $40 will be required for the interest on
state indebtedness and all the remainder of the
money to be collected will be for educational
purposes. The following statement shows the
various items to be collected, the last two items
being estimated by adding a normal increase to
the amounts of year ago.
Interest on state debt. ............. Sl57,57O
Free high schools. Observation-Disclosures. 125,000
Graded schools. ............... 100000
Normal schools. ........... 23O,OOO
Common schools. ................. $50, 900
State university. ,................. 650,O00
Total 50, 632, $40
This sum will be levied against the taxable
property of the state for educational purposes
ana all but the $3.50, 900 for the university and
the S157 $40 for interest state debt, will be
apportioned and returned at once to the counties
and practically repaid, so il is hardly correct to
call it a tax at all-certainly not state
Most of the money goes back to the school dis
tricts The amount of $1350,000 is seven
tenths of a mill, less 5000 900 all the general
taxable property, and the university fund is the
two-sevenths of mill tax levied permanently
levies there will be special levies on various
counties for special purposes such as care for
insane, interest on loans to towns, cities and
school districts and for repayments of loans
In conclusion desire to express to you all my
full appreciation for your uniform kindness and
especially to county officials and deputies,
for their courtesy and valuable aid given at all
times. And further desire to express to each
and every assessor my highest regard for the
kindly and respectful treatment received at his
hands / have at ell times endeavored to be
perfectly fair. with ALL and the general harmony
that has existed gives assurance that in this i
have been successful

fire could be learned. One of the fire

was the first to gain admission to the

telephone battery box which occupied
the center of the long bench on the

REV. VOSBURG SAYS SHE is d.
VINELY APPOINTED TO LEA
FAITH.

Before a packed house a. the Key.or
tGrand yesterday afternoon, Rev Ar
thur Reeves Vosburg delivered a pow
erful and convincing lecture on Chris
tian Science. Many came who could
not gain admittance and were turned
away. The lecture was interesting and
as the speaker knew what he was
talking about, it was convincing to
thinkers Some of his statements were:
Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy is the mod
ern Moses Samuel. David, Paul. Lu-
ther or Wesley. Always there has
been leader in the great movements
of Christianity ard Mrs. Eddy is one
of these She became aware of the
healing power of belief through her
own healing. She also knew. as a hO-
meOpathic healer, that sometimes sim
ole water hea.ed as we'll as medicine
From this she deduced that it was
faith in the prescription and not the
prescription itself. that did the heal
ing From this she reasoned the theory
that mind and not matter, is the basic
principle
Jesus teaching and works then
set before us an idealism that excludes
tier and evil, and includes all good
The Christian Scientist frankly
souarely adopts this idealism, and he
meets every manifestation of evil
whether of sickness, sin, poverty. sor-
row, disaster. with a positive denial of
its power or reality. and an affirma-
ton Of the ailness and goodness or
God: and just in the degree of his
spiritual clearness and understanding
he supports these statements by de-
monstration.
"In following his line of light, the
Christian Scientist has acknowledged
that: AS adherents of truth, We take
the inspired work of the Bible as our

thor is the Rev Mary Baker Eddy. The
Christian Scientist has increasing and
unreserved confidence in these two
hooks, because he has thus far proven
them safe guides upon the way, and
this gives him assurance that they will
be safe guides to the end"
