The present legislature claims to stand for economy and yet its appropriations aggregate about a million and a half more than the Republican legislature of two years ago. Representative Taylor says that the legislature must cut down the State University's ap propriation $120,000 for the sake of being economical. How would it be Mr. Taylor to cut out those forty new deputies and cut the total amount of the ap propriations down about a million and a hall so that you would be using no more of the tax payers money than the Republican leg islature did two years ago ? When the people of the city meet next Tuesday evening to select a citizens ticket for the coming city election they should be careful to select men who have the real interest of the city at Heart and who are live progres sive citizens. Broken Bow needs pushing to the front and the city officers can do much to push its development or retard its growth. The Hcpubhcan is being read by an ever mcrasing number of subscribers , and its aim is to make all news , especially in the way of progress , a feature , that will not only be a credit to the paper , but the county it repre fi sents. It desires the co-operation of its readers , in its efforts to make the Republican , an interesting , readable papn , full nf di"iiial'lc ' information ; < . - ' im- provciiu-ntn , Imsint'si changes , social leathering1' , prrsmials birth * , mariiagc'i , doalhs anv thing ol a r < pci'i.il character or- curring in the ( hurdles or lodges in f'acl , any item that may be of any interest , we will be glad to j receive , by letter or over the Phone No. 78. If a Republican government is maintained here we must see to it that the children have a chance ( o gc < the advantages at least of the rudiments of educa tion" Deacon , Well Cnarlie , education is a mi hty good thing but I don't know as it re quires much education to see the falacics in the argument of the Democratic spellbinders and keep ; the government safe in the hands of the Republicans. Brother iJ.-al siys that the university must not be built up at the expense of the poor school districts in the western part of the state. No , certainly not , but the State Legislature should not build up a monstrous political machine in the hands of Govern or Shallenbergcr , through creat ing a lot of new deputies fet him to appoint , at the expense of the State University. lUiSUl.TS OF COUNIY ASSESSOR. The tax books in the County Clerks office show that there was an increase of about < > 0 per cent in assessed valuation of the per sonal property in the county under. 1 he assessment the first year the county had a county assessor. ' 1 he increase for the previous year wa * about 10 per cent. This shows a much moiv careful assessment under the administration of the county as sessor. This docs not mean that Mic total amount of tax money collected is larger but it does show that a large amount of propcrity which escaped taxation under the old system is paying its just proportion of she tax under the new revenue law and that a more systematic and that more careful listing of the pro pcrity is made when the work is supervised and directed by a county assessor. rill : COMMiriU : FRANCHISE.
