There's an automobile owning John

ages holds good, but in all the state
of Washington there is only one
Zsigmondovies, Director of Liscenses
C. r. Maybury, certifes after check
ing up list of tkiose who own the
joy cars. For that matter, when the
big boy in brass buttons who calls
the cars at the theatres announces
that Mr.. Pappamitchelikes' bus has
driven up, George known its his turn
for he is the only one of that name
who has an auto. There's only one
Zdonkervicez and a solitary quir-
inconi.
Each year more John Smiths
tell the speed cops that they won't do
it again then Director Maybury can
find On his rolls and he has 1856 car
owning Smith enumerated at
that. However there's only one Sad
Sim Smith and not a single Gloomy
Gus Smith.
TIE .Iohnsons top the list, numeri-
cally, of car-owning families with
ATS holding automobile licenses.
After the Smiths, who are second,
come: Anderson, 1865; Miller, 1888;
Nelson. 2lO5; Brown, 2054; Peter

Some figures on the county bud.
get for the coming year may be
OF interest to orr readers and the fol.
lowing by Auditor E. o. Keene is
submitted.
At the last session of the legislature
bill was passed providing for con-
solidation of several Of the county Of
fees the argument being for the bill
at the time of it's consideration that it
was a move in the interest Of effici-
ency and economy in county govern
ment.
Whether greater efficiency will re-
suit cannot be told until the act be-
comes effective which will not be born
cut by the budget provisions covering
next years expenditures. The total
saving shown on the combined bud
gets amounts to $540o.25. The office
of clerk shows decrease of SLABS; the
engineer budget is SlsoS less; the
the treasurer's budget is S2276.25 un.
der the budgets for the two Offices
last year and there is saving of $l0o
in the attorneys budget which was
tie amount of the cororer's salary
The total amount to be raised for the
current expense fund this year is
$65,o72.73 as against $66,185.65 or a
decrease of only $202.oz from las,
year, for while there has been sub
stancial saving thru the consolidation,
it has been offset in other ways.
We find the expense of caring for
the county constantly increasing
More people are needing county as
sistance and disqualification. medical
attention and burial at county expense
than ever before and there seems to
be no prospect for relief from this bur-
den. The budget last year carried
$4,000 for INDECENT relief This was
found to be inadequate, as that sum
will be exceeded this year, and the
budget for 1927 carries Sl4,50o for
this purpose.
A demand was made this year for
re-estab!ishmcnt of county agent OF
agricultur:st. Several hearings were
held on the matter and the demand
seemed TO be so general that inclusion
was made in the budget for this work
the amount estimated for carrying II
on being S4cC0.
Economics have been effected wher-
ever possible. The general road and
bridge levy is Sl0,123 less than last
year. ] he levy in road district No
IS $1,000 u'der last year and il, dis
IL No. $500 less.

is believed, however. that the latter contingency is most implorable. The Catholic authorities think the first contingency will be overcome by reason of the fact that the churches will not be abandoned" as the door of the churches will be open and the buildings left in charge of committees of 1aymen after priests leave them.
 Official announcement was made yesterday that it was the intention of the government either to close the churches or put special GUS todians in charge of them for the purpose of protecting church treas ures and property if the Catholic authorities should abandon" them on Sunday.
 The Schismatic church, which desires to secure control of all cathedral, does not recognize the authority of the pope. Its avowed purpose when 1t was organized last year was to eliminate Catholicism in Mexico from Vatican connection.
