BUDGET MEETING DID
NOT DISCUSS BUDGET

Some of the reasons why taxes are
high were pointed out by r. f. Smith
Of Roseburg at a meeting held at the
court house beginuning at o'clock.
The meeting was intended for the
purpose OF discussing the county
budget but the direct subject OF the
buget here was not taken up. on

such an organization.
The attendance at yesterdays meet
ing was light, there being but a hand
full present at the opening and be-
tween 25 and 80 when the meeting
closed. with one or two exceptions
those present were local mes.
At the opening of the meeting Mr..
McComas took the chair and intro
duced Mr. Smith. representative OF the
National Tax Reform Association and
publisher OF The Liberator' tax re
form paper. Mr.. Smith spoke for an
hour upon the general subject OF tax
alton. He attributed high taxes
largely to natural causes. but placed
much stress on the fact two-thirds
OF Oregon is held by the federal gov
ernment and is not subject to taxes
He blamed the taxpayers for being
apathetic as 10 expenses and gave

SUPERVISORS ARE
OPPOSED TO PLAN
FOR ROAD MAKING
County Board Refuses to Pass
Formal Resolution Calling
For An Appropriation.
$4,000 A MILE TOO HIGH
To Ask State Commission to Make
Taylor Ridge Highway, 10 In
stead of 10 Feet Wide.

Contrary TO expectations. the board
OF supervisors. at a called meeting
yesterday afternoon did not pass a for
NAL resolution, providing for an appro-
priation for S7,153 or as much of it as
may be necessary to pay one-half of
the sum which will be expended this
year for state aid roads in this county.
The members, by an overwhelming
vote. defeated the resolution, and for
a time 1t looked as though no attempt
would be made TO avail themselves of
state aid for the improvement of the
roads OF the county.
The expenditure of $4,000 for one
mile OF concrete highway at Taylor
Ridge was deemed exorbitant and the
sentiment OF the body seemed opposed
to proceeding on that basis. 1t had
been the original purpose OF the board
to improve three pieces of road in the
county this year. There were 5000
feet on the road running west of Tay-
Tor Ridge, 5000 in Yuma township and
1000 in Sears. II was the understand
ing that the highways would be 10 feet
wide and that all of the three projects
could be installed for approximately
$4,000. although the state highway
commission asked a maximum appro-
pirate of S7.152 from the county and
agreed to donate a like amount from
the state in order to remove the posi-
bility of a deficiency.
When the resolution which the state
highway commission adopted was sent
to the local board for the adoption of
a similar one. 1t was found that but
one piece Of road had been designated
for improvement and that the entire
fund was to be expended on it. The
plans for the commission called for a
highway is feet in width, instead of 10
as the board desired, thereby doubling
the expenditure at Taylor Ridge and
preventing the improvement of the
other two roads.
Object to Plans.
Vigorous objection to this procedure
was made by members of the board
yesterday. After the resolution, plans
and Specifications had been read by
County Clerk H. B. Hubbard, Super
visor Leslie Hanna asked that Wallace
Treichler, county superintendent of
highways, explain why but one road
had been designated and why the
plans had been changed from a 10
foot to an Is foot highway.
While waiting for Mr.. Treichler to
appear, Supervisor J. C. Burgoyne,
Andalusia, stated that he recently
made a visit to Mclean county and
had occasion to inspect the road work
there. He said this spring a mile of
concrete road had been put in under

Jacob Schultz, aged So, Davenport

gard when knocked down and vainly
attempted to prevent being dragged
under the machine.
Coulton was driving down Main
street when Schulz walked across the
street at Fourth. He did not see the

chine would continue past him down
the street. Instead Coulton made a
sharp turn.

Officer Boettcher. On his way to the
police station. completely unnerved
by the accident, he lost control of
the machine and crashed into an ex-
press wagon. He was booked on
the charge of violating the traffic or
dirance and was later released ON his
own recognizance.

PATIENTS COMING
HERE FOR CIRCUS
Two Hundred Watertown In
mates Will See Afternoon
Performance in City.

Some two hundred working patients
be given a treat Friday afternoon in
Rock Island. They are to be brought
here to attend the performance of
Barnum and Bailey's circus at Expo
sition park.
DR.. J. A. Campbell. superintendent
OF the hospital. says that he will spend
$50 on the bunch, and will attempt to
get a rate so that he can take in all OF
the 200.
Diversions such as a circus are al
WAYS enjoyed by the patients, and no
doubt there will be no section of the
big amphitheatre which will tender
more applause to the performers at
the matinee than that occupied by the
200.
