COMMISSIONERS PASS
EMERGENCY BUDGET

The county board met last Fri
day for the purpose of considering
passage of an emergency budget
of S1400 for the sheriff's and coun-
ty attorneys offices. There was
no objection to the expenditure of
this amount of money on the part
Of any taxpayer, and the budget
was therefore allowed: $1,000 as
mileage for the cheriff, $3.50 for
printing, postage and stationery for
the county attorney and $3.50 mile
age for the county attorney.
In view Of the %debenture cleo
ton on May 5th, the expenditure
of money for election supplies,
judges and clerks of election will
be necessitated. The payment will
eventually come from the state
fund, but in order to meet claims
promptly. the county commission
ers decided that an emergency
budget Of $1,000 would be required.
This would be apportioned as fol-
lows: Supplies and expense $1700,
salary of Judges and Clerks of
election 5000. The matter OF pass
ing this emergency budget will be
up before the commissioners at
HOO o'clock on April 6, at which
time any taxpayer may appear and
be heard either for or against this
emergency budget

SCHOOL DIST'S
In HIGH COURT

The supreme court of Montana
on March 16 handed down a decis'
ion that is of momentous impor'
lance to the schools of Montana,
The decision sustained the dis
trict court in the case concerning
the penalty and interest on delin'
quent school taxes. The opinion
was written by Judge Matthews
and was concurred in by all of the
other judges. There was not a
district court, but the ruling was
rewriting of the opinion of the
on the facts submitted and a mat
ter of law.
This decision, according to fig
ures obtained through F. H. Liv-
ingston's investigation will result
in counties of Montana turning ov-
er to schools of Montana a sum of
money amounting to between $780,
and 81, 900. One quarter mil
lion has already been turned over
to the schools. The investigation
was started in 1926 and has been a
long drawn out affair. This money
is going to take many districts out
of the red and should cause many
to reduce their present high tax
levies.

Who WILL
IN ROOSEVELT?
CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS FOR
MAY 5TH SPECIAL
ELECTION

At it's April meeting the county
board will name election officials
in each of the voting precincts oil
the county for the special gas tax
debenture election to be held May
5th.
This election will register a vote
on only one question: For" or
Against" the d~ebentures. 1t is
necessary to the legality of the de.
bentures, but is really a mere for
mality. So far as that goes the
result appears to be a foregone
conclusion. No tax issue is al
stake. No change in any law con-
corning the gas tax or gas tax
refund will be effected, whatever
the result of the election.
Towns and counties all over the
state are now offering volunteer
election officials who will serve
without pay. Many citizens and off,
Gals of Roosevelt county are anx-
ious that our county fall into line.
Counties will be reimbursed from
the state highway fund for any ex-
pense they are put to by this spec
ial election. But at this time ev-
cry dollar that is saved for the
highway fund will do the work of
S2.27, the states dollar and S1.27
that the federal government will
put on top Of it.
Commissioner w. l.. Young be-
lieves it will be easy to get volun-
teers in the towns but that it will
not be SO easy to get the matter
before the country people. 1t is
suggested that those who learn of
this call and are willing to serve
write to the county clerk and re-
corder, giving their precinct name
and number and their name and
postoffice address. This should
be done by the first of April. Nat
urally those who live near the
polling places a serve with the
least Inconvenience.

Suicide was considered to have
been the cause of the death, with
out question. 1t was uncertain
how long he had been dead. The
shot may have been fired the day
before. There was still fire in the
stove.
A note written on an envelope

when Ryan came for his horses he
would find his harness in a GER
