ORDER SETTING HEARING
IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF
LIE THIRTEENTH JUDICIAL
DISTRICT OF THE STATE OF
MONTANA, IN AND FOR THE
COUNTY OF YELLOWSTONE.
In the Matter of the NUTTING
DRAINAGE DISTRICT.
On this Both day of August, 1916,
the Commissioners of the above
entitled district filed in the office
of the Clerk of this Court their
annual report as commissioners for
the year 1915 and in such report
showed that they had on hand with
the County Treasurer at the COM
mencement of the year 1915 the
sum of three hundred sixty eight
and 79-100 dollars ($368. 79), and
that the amount of One thousand
one hundred seventy-one and 95-1OO
($1171.95) has since been received
through assessments. That their
disbursements for repairs and adj
ministrative expenses for the year
1915 amounted to three hundred
slxty-one and 25-100 ($361.25) and
that they now have on deposit with
the County Treasurer to the credit
of the district the sum of one
thousand n hundred seventy-nine
and 49-1OO (|S1179.49). That this
report is accompanied by an assess
ment roll to be made in the year
1916 whereby the district seeks to
raise the sum of one thousand five
and 67-100 ($1005.67). This ass
sesSment roll is in accordance with
and follows the same plan of the
last assessment roll which was sub
mltted by the commissioners in 1912
and approved by the court. That
under this proposed assessment roll
a levy will be made upon Yellow
stone County for the amount of
SlOO.57 for drainage of highways;
an assessment will be made on the
Big Ditch COmpany's right-of-way
for 5000 an assessment will be
made on the Billings Bench Water
Users Association for $685. and on
the Yellowstone Canyon Creek
Ditch Company for it's right-of-way
in the amount of $16.10. All of
the lands in said district will be
taxed at the rate of fifty cents an
acre where the benefit derived from
the system is one hundred per cent.
And in those cases where the bene-
derived by the drainage sys-
,em was determined to be fifty per
then the assessment will be
at the rate of twenty-five cents
Der acre. All the assessments are
on an area basis and in ac-
,ordance with the benefits received :
IS determined by the County Drain
Commissioner at the time of the :
establishment of the drainage dis ,
riot. The commissioners in said 4
'eport state that this amount is /.
necessary for administrative ex- /.
lenses and anticipated repairs and
out of the drain during
he year 1916. 1t is believed that -,
he amount obtained by this asses -,
ment will be sufficient to take !
are of such expenses so that no ,
evy will need to be made until g.:
948.

.ort set forth that the term of :
