It Martha McAdams will he the duty o f the “ trustees” to (M^nn^Warner levy taxes only fo r the poop and the Bertha Koogier cemeteries. They will have no power to levy general taxes for townshir government such as road Vork, ditch work,'and in a local case, providing a tax levy fo r our township library. , The office of township clerk has .-.disappeared under the bill, the new law shifting the duties o f clerk and the keeping of records, on the audito: in each county in.the state. That thr plan must have been well thoughtotti is shown in the' law that the county auditor is not to receive any addition al compensation. Provision, is made JR>r hiring extra clerks and stenogra­ phers. -No provision is made for am “ compensation for trustees or eve; expenses. .Auditor Lutz says thr law is loosely drawn, and evidently is iri Conflict with other laws that have- not been .repealed. The bill war known aS House bill No, 80. . Mr. LUtz says that “ Schools wil (jJiSye everything to Jose and nothine to gain b y this biH,” It is IntesprV that evert clerks o f school hoardr isre opt o f “the running and that the board members will be required to g c to the county auditor for a bill of pur- . chase,before making any purchase oi letting a contract, or employing help. “ Th is'low is about the .worst yet passed by a state legislature and prot albly .will not last longer than two . years, at which time such . clamot fo r its .repeal will be raised tuat nd time will be lost in voting a propel measure.” Under the old law the time fo r fix­ ing tax levies, was the first. Monday o f July, but under the nofy law' th< third Monday of October has been se as the time fo r the fixing o f rates. The law becomes effective AugUs- IBand requires Almost an entirely nee. system f o r levying taxes. It would be almost an impossibility for an au­ ditor and treasurer to be. ready foi trtoc collecting time by changing the time fo r fixing levies. „ The bill in general deprives the tax­ payers the right to vote on levies be- tween°lhe limit of One and one and ongrhalf per cent and cuts the tax levying authority o f schools and gives additional powers to municipalities. Members o f the legislature from rural counties are going to find them- - selves in a plose position. Not many o f them will rush into print and pub- lically declare they voted for this law* They will hardly publically declare they did not know such a law was pas sed. The public then will want to know just what members Were doing irt not opposing a law that has been well planned to break down the hold the rural populace has on gov­ ernment that is not pleasing to the big city bosses* ‘ Another bill passed that has caused a storm is the Myers bill placing a three per cent tax on foreign insur­ ance companies doing business in the state with an invitation to other states to tax Ohio companies accord­ ingly, It has bedi discovered that the tax is not on the companies bt|t comes off the policy holders. This bill has aroused a storm of protests and every effort was .made to have Governor Donahey veto the bill but he permit- ed it to become a law without his sig­ nature leaving the Republican lobby controlled legislature to nurse the burns administered by the companies. Attorney VorCys, Columbus, in his aomment on the bill stated cthat the legislature lacked “ sanity" fn consid­ ering bills* The insurance compan­ ies will resist? the law in the Federal courts, A well known lobbyist made a put>- Hc statement several days ago that the past legislature was the best in his history.
