THE financial condition of the
county is now such that it is no
bar to the proposal to provide
the county with q suitable court
house for the accommodation Of
its officers and the safe keeping
and proper storing of the county
records. The county is now
practically out Of debt, for to
cover the $50. 900 of county
bonds that are not payable until
1916, there is alread, in the sink
ing fund $685. 80 and the levy
for 1918 and 1914 for the sinking
fund of $6, 900 will more than
cover the bonds and interest. In
the years before 1913 the levy
for the sinking fund had been
$4,000 bat during the past two
years it has been reduced to
s 5000. So the fact is that the
issues of court house bonds will
not increase the tax above what
it has been in years past. be-
cause the county has been re-
'lieved of its. former bonded in
debtedness. With an assessed
valuation Of 624, 497, 933 of tax
able property, including the rail-
roads running through the coun-
ty. q levy of 3 1-8 mills would be
sufficient to cover the whole
bond issue of SIS, 900, or 3 tenths
of 9 mill each year for ten years
would more than pay the bonds.
Good business judgment and
sound public policy dictates that
the county should no longer take
the risk it is carrying in possible
loss of records should tire des-
