Melon Which, state Treasurer Brown
viii Divide viii be Juicy
One According to All
Figures.
IS OVER HALF MILLION
Approximately $1,000 Machines Are
Registered With State Office
Half Rate In
Effect.

Counties OF the state will receive
considerable more cash on April i
from the apportionment Of the auto
mobile tax than they did last year at
the frst division OF the fund. w. G..
Brown, state treasurer at Des Moines,
is preparing to cut the melon which
will be exceedingly juicy according
to Indications.
The treasurer has on hand at tbs
present time $4,000 taken In from
the licensing Of automobiles. With a
{ little more than three weeks more be-
fore the end of March, it Is expected
the receipts from this source will ex-
coed $4,000
Last year the treasurer On April L
had $685., 927.55 auto tax receipts to
divide among the counties. The APP
portionment, according to the law is
by civil townships. There are 1,643
townships in the state and each coun-
ty receives slice OF the auto tax
according to the number OF its town
ships. Adair county with % town
ships, receives more OF the tax than
Dallas county, with has 16 town
ships, although Dallas county has
more territory and more population
than Adair county, the state officials
say.
The second apportionment for 1913
which was made Aug. 1, amounted to
s22S,021.Ss, or $5S5.949.43 for the en-
tire year. This year 1t is expected
that the first installment will nearly
equal the entire tax of last year.
The number of autos registered Is
nearly $4,000. Many Of these ara new
cars. The owners Of the autos often
times forget how old the machines
are and send more money than Is re-
quired. Tbs law provides that any
car which has been registered for
four years, is entitled thereafter to-
half rate. The secretary of state has
been sending refunds to car owners
at about the rate of fifty a week,
owing to this cause.
The state treasury now has s518.
4O9.7s on hand. General taxes are not
due until sometime in April. The re-
csipts from the auto registration dur
ing the first three. months OF this
year has been timely as far as the
states finances are concerned. The
cash was received at tims when the
treasury was practically empty and
with no hope Of securing revenue
from taxation until along in April.

City Affairs and Schools.

City Affairs and Schools.
To the Editor of The Gate City:
II you will permit me, would like
to say a few words through your pa
per in regard to city affairs. What
We want ts a better and larger city
and it's up to the citizens to make it
so. We must do our best to get the
best men possible In ONCE to look
after our city affairs and after we put
them in Office do all that we can to
assist them to accomplish our need
ed desire, but we must attend to a
matter most important first and /
guess the first thing wifi oe to clean
up and clean out and stay clean. We
are tired of the stencil that has sur
rounded us for the past two years,
which has been SO strong that our
neighboring cities took due notice Of
it enough to say IL we expect to get
anywhere we must start noN.
Now the next thing / believe to be
very important is the school ques-
ton. l can't say much about this
matter as far as the fourth and sew
enth wards are concerned, only from
what | get through the press, but If
they need a new school or the old
one made bigger, they ought to have
them. But there is vast difference
of opinion in regards to the first
ward school, but like all other con
tractors, we don't like to put in on
the matter for fear of criticism, but
/ want to say that visited Garfield
school and investigated the stairway,
which is about the most undesirable
thing about 1t and from this stand
point it is certainly fire trap, but
what is the use to tear down build
ing for that reason, when this stair
and hallway could be made fireproof
and there is plenty of room for adj
ditional rooms to be addeu.
