EUREKA COUNTY BUDGET
General Estimate OF the Receipts
And Expenditures For the
Years 1913 and 1914

The Board Of County Commissioners
at their meeting Monday made their an.
nual estimate Of the receipts and expen.
ditures of Eureka County for the years
1918 and 1914, and prepared the follow
ing budget under the provisions Of the
County Revenue Reduction law.
Last year the total County rate OF tax
alton for all purposes was el.4s per 500
valuation, against o rate Of el.23 levied
this year-a reduction Of % cents on the
800 valuation. This has been brought
about by two causes:
First-The Board . year ago could
have made . material reduction, but OF
account of important litigation then
pending did deem IL advisable to do
so. This litigation has since been FINAL
ly settled, leaving quite q surplus over
the estimated expenses for this rear.
Secondly an estimated raise of
$3.50, 900 in the value Of property for the
present year. This amount added to
%, 100. 900, Eureka County's valuation
last year. makes an estimated total of
%. 4s0. 900 Of taxable property 10 Eureka
County for the present year.
The tax for District Schools last year
was 20 cents, which realized about
$500. This year the District School
rate is % cents, which win bring in
37542. This rate was deemed advisable
on account Of the increased yearly ex-
pendirures in the District Schools and
the exhaustion of quite q Surplus that
had been carried along for some years
in some Of the District Schools. For
several years the annual expenditures
Of the District Schools have amounted
to about $4,000. OF this amount some
$500 is received from the State, the
balance from the County, as shown
above.
The Board allowed $500 for the ex-
penses of the Eureka County High
School. which is the same amount that
was estimated by the Board last year,
or a rate OF 10 cents per 800 oil an esti-
mated valuation OF . 5000. 900. against
a tar levy for this year Of 10 cents per
800 on q valuation of %. 430. 900.
In the preparation of the Budget the
Commissioners have allowed a liberal
margin for any ordinary contingency
that may arise in conducting the affairs
Of the county. As Is we'll known. the
Board will be compelled by law to make
a reduction next year of at least two
and o half cents below the county rate
fxed for this year.
