sist chiefly of business and heavy

paid for them is around 5000. Last
year they shipped almost a thousand
head east.

pepsia Tablets leads us to believe
them to be the greatest remedy
known for the relief of acute in
digestion and chronic dyspepsia.
Their ingredients are soothing and
healing to the infiamed membranes
of the stomach. They are rich in
pepsin, one of the greatest digestive
aids known to medicine. The re-
lief they afford is almost immediate.
Their use with persistency and reg
ularity for a short time brings about
a cessation of the pains caused by
stomach disorders.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets will
insure healthy appetite, aid diges-
ton and promote nutrition. AS
evidence of our sincere faith in
ReXall Dyspepsia Tablets, we ask

their origin in a disordered stomach.

less than any county In North Idaho
Locally, our county tax is not Al
high as our village tax. neither Is i
as high as the school tax for this
district. In fact. more than 90 pei
cent Of all our taxes here in Neg
perez are for the village and school.
Thus it will be seen by any one
who is not preiudiced that the cause
of the taxes being 50 high. is not the
fault of the governor, nor of any one
particular individual. but many Who
are finding fault are as much at
fault as any one, and in some cases
more.
As far asthe heavy appropriations
are concerned. many of them could
have been left out and We could
have gotten along about as well and
our taxes would have been much
lower, yet We do not believe that the
money is being expended in a way
that viii not do good, but on account
of the heavy taxes and being a
young and growing state with our
assessed valuation small. il would
have been better to have waited for
some of the improvements.
To sum up. the fault in the state
appropriations, as well as local i'm
oovements in some places, is that

zee LICE TAxES. ANp wy.

Ore Of the questions that mos
people in this state are always in
terested in, at this time of the year
especially. is the tax question; the
amount of taxes that we have to pay
and where all the money goes that
We pay therefor. This last question
is one that too many do not think
about except at tax-paying time.
This year many things have con-
tributed to making the taxes higher
than they have been in the past, but
the cause attributed by many IS not
the real cause. In fact. the cause as
signed by many has only in an in
direct way made any material diff
ference.
The full cash value assessment,
which many seem to think is the
cause of their taxes being higher,
would not have made the taxes of
any one any higher. provided they
had been paying their just proper
ton in the past and there had been
no more taxes required or levied than
there has been in the past, but that
has not been the case.
In the first place, the heavy ap-
propriations of the legislature made
it absolutely necessary that much
greater amount of money be raised
this year than last or in any proceed
ing year, and if the valuation hzd
remained the same the levy would
have through necessity been much
higher for the state taxes alone.
Bridge bills, calling for more than
500, 100000 alone, we're passed.
Road bills, calling for many thous-
ends of dollars, we're passed. Pro-
visions we're made for the expending
OF $3.50, 100000 for finishing the
state capital. Many relief bills,
calling for a considerable amount of
money, we're passed. All the state
institutions we're allotted large sums

of money. not but what most of then
we're in need of what they got, and
many could have used more to a
good advantage, but it took money
just the same.
All these appropriations we're
made by The legislature and the
money had to be raised. After these
measures we're passed and became a
Law, neither the governor, nor the
state board of equalization had any
power to cut them down, but we're
bound to make provisions for them,
and on account of them being COM

many take advantage to mislead the
people for political and other rea-
