piled by Clarence T. Hull, county
auditor. When the taxes are paid
next year the local people will pay
five mills less than they did this
time The taxes are divided into
several funds.
The school levy Is BIS mills dtvid.
ed into Fl mills, general fund, and
as mills, school house fund. The
school board in fixing the levy at its
meeting in July reduced the amount
by $15, 5000.
The totals for the different tax is
as follows: Consolidated state and
county % mills, school BIS mills
and corporation 70. mills, making a
total Of $3.50 mills as the tax levy
in the city Of keokuk for the year

The totals last year were: Con-
soIidated 22.5 mills, school 1928

a total OF 1915 mills as the levy for
the taxes of 1916. This shows a re-
duction Of AIS Mills mill less on
the consolidated and 3.75 mills less
on the school.
The auditor also has received
communication from the secretary
Of state about the canvassing OF the
vote of the recent election. Under
the section Of the code that the spec
ial elections are to be canyassed, 1t
provides for canvass OF the votes
and not merely the canvass of the
returns 1t is not really recount as
under ruling OF the state depart
nent that is the proper way to do 1t
IN any instance. This means the
board will have to count the votes
themselves which will most likely
be done when the board meets next
Tuesday.

Norton bay to Cooks inlet has had such an abundance of birds year after year. They have bred on the tundra and in winter have sought the will lows and birches. Sometimes enor- nous docks have gone SC far inland as to Koyukuk. At other se4sons few have been found there.
 That these hardy and wary birds have all been killed off Is absurd. That they have, for some reason or other. left their customary haunts and gone to the Alaska peninsula is reasonable though it is as inexpiica- ble as many other animal phenomena.
 Thirty years ago there was just such scarcity. Near Anvik a half dozen natives hunted for days to get a tarmigan. rabbit, or grouse for the Christmas dinner of a government scientist who spent tfe wir ser there and not one could be found. And there were none in the whole sec- tion either. The next year the game came back in fair quantities and the following year there was a super- abundance. And all the advice and aid of bureau officials In Washing ton will not help matters bit. We do not need any more restrictions placed on Us by Washington than we now have.
