Taxes Due
Nezperce County

Lewiston, Nov. 22.-The first in
stallment of the 1915 taxes are now
due and the payment of those taxes
will be commenced today at the
office of County Treasurer L. L.
Chapman, ex-offico tax collector for
Nez Perce county. Under the state
law one-half of the taxes must be
paid before the first Monday in Jan
uary and the second installment
must be paid before the first Mon
day in July.
The total amount of taxes to be
paid in the county for 1915 is $685.
O15.99 and the amount to be paid
before the first Monday in January
is $181, ,507.99. The total amount
of state and county taxes for Nez
Perce county is $142,932.71.
Notice of the amount of taxes as
sessed against each parcel of pro-
perty in the county has been sent
out by Collector Chapman and while
it is'not expected heavy payments
will be made until the latter part
of December, it is expected the de.
linquency will be very small this
year. This opinion is drawn from
the reports of country merchants to
the effect that collections have been
better this fall than for many years
and while many OF the farmers are
holding large per cent of their
crops, the improved financial con-
ditions of the farming district is al
lowing the farmers to meet their
obligations and at the same time to
hold large portion Of the 1915
crop for the later market.
The figures given below show the
state and county taxes to be collect
ed in Nez Perce county are consid-
erably less than one half to be COL
lected. This is due to the special
assessments for roads and schools,
the Lewiston city tax and the taxes
of the several villages of the county
all of which are paid to Collector
Chapman. The Lewiston taxes a.
mount to $71, ,703.34 while the taxes
to be collected outside of Lewiston
amount to $281 ,812.05.
The books at the office of Collect
or Chapman are in readiness for the
payment and every arrangement has
been made to facilitate the work.
There will be no further notices of
taxes sent out but Immediately fol-
lowing the closing Of the books on
the first Monday in January, all of
! the first installments remaining un-
paid will be declared delinquent and
the penalties and costs will be add.

Maximum Levy
Five Mills

Boise, Nov. 22.-The maximum
levy which a school district may
make against property in the dis
trict is five mills. This was held
by the supreme court in it's decision
on an appeal from the district court
for Minidoka county in the action
brought by the Oregon Short Line
railroad to prevent the tax collector
of Minidoka county from collecting
a fifteen mill levy for school pur-
poses. Judge Babcock granted the
injunction and the county officers
appealed. The supreme court sus-
tains the decision of the lower court.
In 1913 the legislature passed
bill (chap. 88. p. 1862 S. L. 1910
changing the maximum levy from
Is to five mills. Shortly after, it
passed an omnibus bill (chap 88, p.
434, S. L. 1910 in which the fifteen
mill levy was left as it stood. Both
bills were sent to the governor, sign
ed and filed with the secretary of
state on the same day, with no no.
tation to show the hour of signing
or filing. It was the contention of
the county authorities that, as the
records of the legislature showed
that the 15-mill bill was passed af-
ter the five-mill measure, the form
er should stand.
The supreme court holds that le-
gislative journal records on the five
mill bill show that it was introduced
for the purpose of increasing the
number of months that school should
be kept open and to relieve school
districts of publishing notices of an
nual meetings. The maximum levy
of Is mills was not changed in the
bill until after it had passed the
house. The amendment was consid-
cred in the house when the bill was
returned from the senate and approx
ed there, so particular attention of
both houses was called to the change.
While the bill which fixed the levy
at five m ills required only two print
ed pages, the omnibus bill, in which
the maximum was unchanged, cover
ed Is pages and amended many Sec
tions of the school law.
''It appears from the history of
the passage Of these two bills" says
the court, "that the legislature in
tended to reduce the maximum levy.
This is clearly so when viewed in the
light of the circumstances that in
duced the amendment which reduc-
ed the maximum levy. Both bills
were sent to the governor and he
approved them both on the same
day, but the evidence does not show
which he approved first. In this
case it is proper for the court to
take into consideration the intent of
the legislature in passing the two
said bills"
Following the rule that, where
there is repugnacy between a gen.
eral and special salute, the special
should prevail, the supreme court
decides that the intent of the legis.
lature to reduce form Is mills tc
five mills the maximum amount tc
be levied for school purposes is
clear.
The opinion is written by Chief
Justice Sullivan; Justice Bulge anC
Morgan concur.

Bigger And Better
Than Ever

Lewiston, Nov. 25.-Already large
numbers of animals are quartered
at the grounds of the Northwest
Livestock Show to enter into the
competition which opens Monday,
November goth to continue to Dec
ember 4th-the week of, this big
annual exhibition, which is held at
Lewiston under the auspices of the
Northwest Livestock Association.
The early arrival taken into consid-
GRAFTON with the entry books of Sec
retary Smith, leave no doubt that
the livestock assembled at Lewiston
this year will represent higher
standard than has been the case in
the past, while the number of ami
mails on display will also establish a
new record. The present week in
Lewiston has been an exceptionally
busy one, the fact indicating the
growing activities of an exhibition
of a type Of the Northwest Live
stock Show. To make adequate ar
rangements for the Accommodations
of approximately 5000 animals, es-
sentially means much work and dur
ing the part few days scores of peo-
pie have been employed at the live
stock show grounds. The Northwest
Livestock Show from it's outset at
tracted the support of leading
stockman of the Northwest, and as
consequence the best animals from
the best farms were taken to the
exhibition with the result that the
show instantly gained almost nation
al reorganization. To win at the
Northwest Livestock Show was a
distinction coveted by the leading
breeding farms.
This year the ordinarily high
standard of the show is to be ac-
contuated by exhibits from noted
breeders who have had their animals
at the San Francisco Worlds expos
ition, and number of prize winners
are to come to Lewiston. Through
out the Northwest, all reports in
dicate an unprecedented interest in
the show and the Northwest Live
, stock Association is preparing to re-
ceive the unusual number of exhib-
itors, visitors and spectators. The
Association meetings are held dur
ing the week of the show and the
program will introduce a number
of distinguished men including the
Governors of the states of Idaho,
Montana and Washington, and the
heads of the Agricultural Colleges
of these commonwealths. The North.
west Livestock Show is now recog-
nized as a really educational insti-
tuition free from the fictictious ele-
ments of the customary fair, and it
is knowledge of that fact that has
now brought to 1t the prestige and
influence of the leading men of the
Northwest, while its reputation has
gained such momentum, that this
year exhibits are to be received from
points as far distant as Wisconsin
The railroads have granted spec
ial rates and these lines anticipate
an unprecedented travel into Lew
iston the week of the big show.
