The attention of the school voters
ers is called to the list of valuations
of the respective districts publish
ed this week. The valuations of
all districts off the railroad are
materially lowered and it will be
necessary to increase the levies in
order to continue the present sal
aries and length of terms. The
railroad valuation having been
nearly doubled , many of the rail
road districts may be able to low
er their levy this year.
