SPECIAL SCHOOL TAXES.
New Law Requires Special Election
TO Levy Them.

OLYMPIA, May l4.-Under the code of
public instruction as amended by the
1907 legislature, an election must be
held to levy any special school tax in a
school district. Prior to the amendment
OF the law levy not to exceed three
mills could be made by the directors
without submitting the question to a
vote. While one section of the amended
code shows a legislative intent to give
the directors power to make as high as
hve-mill levy, the attorney generals s
office holds that the code in its entirety
must be construed as above.

In the third, fifth, seventh and eighth

RESCUE OF TAXPAYERS.

Benn filed suit IN the superior court,
by Attorney Agnew, asking for an in
junction against the county commission
ers aud auditor paying the 5000, as
contracted for last week. Judge Irwin
granted a temporary injunction to hold
until May 81, when the defendants will
be required to SHOW cause why the in-
junction should not he made permanent.
tbs Is not the first time Mr.. Benn has
stopped a scheme that would use public
money wtongluily. Seventeen ears ago,
during the boom days, a great scheme of
county roads was evolved that would de-
velop the county quick. A financial
fever was prevalent at the time, and the
people voted to Issue bonds to the amount
OF $3.50 900, to build roads, beginning no.
where and ending at any old place.
The fact that the proposition received
the required majority Of votes illustrates
the temper OF the people at that ieverish
time, when to oppose it was to De con-
sidered Il 'mossback." Nevertheless,
Mr.. Benn carried the matter into the
courts and won out, thereby earning the
do Of oil ttoir
heads, and of many who had honestly
supported the scheme. Mr.. Benn has
again come to the rescue, and the
chances are that the legal gentlemen
will have to get along without that
$1,000. There can be no objection to the
opponents OF division carrying the ques-
tion of its legality into the courts, but to
do SO they must use their own money.
1t is an unquestoned fact that many
taxpayers favor division, so that it
would be manifest injustice to compel
them to pay counsel for the purpose OF
defeating their own wishes.
