On and after Jan. 1st, Tiie North
western will place the subscription
price on its foreign subscribers at Si 25
per year. We do this from the fact
that it does not pay to carry them at
the $1 per year rate. Also, all names
will be eliminated from our foreign list
that are not paid for in advance, or
their subscription guaranteed by them
selves or by those sending such papers
to friends at a distance. This rule
will fee absolute as we are at present
carrying such at a direct loss We ex
pect at an early date to print four pages
of The Northwestern at home, in
stead of two pages as at present, Our
nierchants are using our advertising
columns in a more satisfactory manner t
than in the past, and if they continue
to do so it will become necessary to en
large the home columns of print. Our
columns at present are full to overflow
ing with advertising, making it neces
sary to print a supplement each week
and we have faith to believe that the
enterprise they are showing Will con
tinue.
Why Was the School Levj^ih
School District No. 1 25 Mills?
In Mr. Gibson's explanation of*the
lew in Loup City township he lays
the levy for the year 1905 for School
District No 1 is 25 mills. Why is it
25 mills ? The law says, Chapter 131,
Page 554 Session Laws 1905:
“The amount of money so voted
as being necessary for the maintain
ance of the school for the coming
year shall be certified by the district
school board to the county clerk of
the county in which said school
district is located, and said amount I
shall be levied by the County Hoard
on the assessed value ot the school
district and be collected as other
taxes.”
The assessed valuation of School Dis
trict No. 1 is more than $158,000 and a
levy of 19 mills would have raised more !
than #3,000, the amount asked by the j
school boird. The amount levied,
to-wit: 25 mills, is to raise S3959. Who
authorized this amount of levy? The
school district authorized a levy to
raise #3.000 only.
