In the county court of said county } on the 18th, day of August 1891, the following among other proceedings were had, viz: In the matter of tax ing shows, circuses, menageries, and all public performances. It is or- dered by the court that all circus shows, or circus and menageries combined shall pay a county tax of $100 and that small shows when on- ly ponies, dogs, etc., are used to per- torm with shall pay a county tax of $5 00 to be collected by the consta- ble of the township in which such shows shall be held.” The above is certified to by coun- ty clerk Drysdale as a true copy of the record. Constable Arnold, act. | ing by authority of this order, de- manded a license tax of $100 from the circus which showed in Butler last Saturday. The pealed to Jesse Connell, presiding Judge of the county court, who or dered the constable to collect only $25.00. Under this order the licence was either $100 or $5, as only two classes of shows is mentioned. This evidently came under the head of | the former, as it was a circus, so ad | vertised and so pronounced by all who saw it. We would like to know | why Judge Connell, in the absence of other members of the court made this reduction in favor of this circus, thereby cheating the scheols of Bates county out of $75 which rightfully belonged to them and which would have been paid bad not Judge Connell interferred, for these | people evidently knew what the li-} cence was to be before they ever billed Bates county.
