EVENING SESSION.
Following the invitation of the
committee, Harrington's hall was
we'll filled last evening and substan-
tial repast was partaken of by most
Of the members of the committee.
including representatives of the
jamestown precincts. After the meal
had been disposed Of, cigars were
passed and an hour Of general So
ciability followed. The political sit
uation around the county was dis
cussed to some extent and there were
a number Of petitions for state can.
didates foI various officers circulated
and signed. The principal event of
the evening was the organization of
the Taft club of Stutsman county.
All republicans of the county are re-
quested to become members Of this
club. The following officers we're
elected: President, ,Jno. Knauf; vice
president, E. P. Oleson, Medina;
secretary, G. S. Buck, Jamestown;
treasurer, VIM. Hall, Jamestown. 1t
was moved and carried that the vice
president for each precinct in the
county should also be named as an
officer Of the club. This movement
puts Stutsman county republicans In
line with many other cities and
counties Of the state in the organiza-
tion of Taft club.
During the evening number of
those present were called upon and
made a few b1ief remarks lin each
case, a number of good stories were
told and.the general feeling was that
1T was necessary to forego factional
differences and that candidates Of the
party and voters Of the party and
those who are In position to influ-
ence republicans throughout the
county should all unite and stand by
the nominees Of the party at the pri-
maries and win an old fashioned re-
publican election next fall. Among
those who responded we're 4. Z. Wal
lace, Chas. Rathman. Geo. Plercy,

Frank Eddy, Harry Smith, John

several others. The meeting ad-
journed after having spent very
pleasant occasion and it is believed a
profitable one. =,

The levy for the general fund for
1908, 1904, 1905 was the same In each
case, viz; $500. In 1905 the levy
was $1,000. In 1907 the levy for the
general fund was raised TO e21, 600,
and for the following reasons:
During the years of 1905 and 1905
the city school board, in order to
raise money for new High School
building, requested the city council
not to increase the city tax .lavy, as
to do SO would prevent the raising
.sot, funds for-,such building. That
building has been erected and cost
about s35, 900. The building has been
paid for and there is no indebt edness
outstanding against the city on ac-
count Of the building. The council
granted the request Of the school
board, and kept the city levy at the
lowest possible amount in order to
provide funds for the new school
building.
So In 1907 the city council found
itself confronted with the necessity
of raising money to meet certain de-
fciencies which had been accruing
for several years. caused as said be-
fore, largely by the payment for the
new high school, and by OTHER unex-
pected expense which the small levies
Of previous years had not provided
for. Among these DEFICIENCIES. and
expenses we're shortage Of .e650o In
the general fund.
Also the sum Of s2250 to pay for
the settlement in the B0rgett judR-
ment against the city, by which SET
tlement a.slarget sum Of money was
undoubtedly saved the city.
And the sum Of s5. 600 to complete
the new city hall, making 9 total OF
sl3,750 to be provided for In the levy
of 1907. This sum added to the same
levy for the general fund made in
1905, viz:E u, 500, brought the total
up to s2l.25O for the year 1907, but
the council made the levy even hg-
ures of s2l, 200.
There have been numerous other
items that have helped to bring
about the shortage in the general
fund, and which have been gathering
during the last five years, and to
show to what extent these have all
helped to bring about the shortage,
/ which had to be provided for last
year the following itemized state
ment of such expenses is given:
The city-.built new steel bridge
at the mill costing about So, 900,
which was made necessary on ac-
count Of the dangerous condition OF
