MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1921. ELK BASIN PETROLEUM COMPANY 15 SUCCEEDED BY YOUNG GIANT ORGANIZED BY CASPER INTERESTS Twin Producers in Salt Creek il Ihe ei yi titi! I an Increase of $100,000 over 1920. Schools show an enrollment in Dis- trict 2, which ineiudes Casper, and Salt Creek ¢f over 3,300 children. School and buildings, sal- aries of 143 teachers and other ex-| pense make big demands yet the school District No. 2 under the effi- cient management of the present board asks for but $260,000 to carry on this vast work. Provided Casper. has a population of 20,000 people inside the corporate limits the amount asked for by the Casper city administration is more than $15 for each man, woman and child. This in the face of the fact city clerk and the water department. When it is remembered that im provement work such as grading the] Tien school Veteran of Civil War Still Hale and Hearty streets or any service rendered by the city engineer's office must be paid for by the property directly effected, it woud seem that taxpayers are being called upon to pay for values which they do not receive. With the revenue derived: by coun ty officers placed by law it is om to show a gain in revenue from the work of county offices. The county tak levy has been ma terially reduced from last year and with funds on hand and. available for the various departments of the coun- dividend distribution which would : fi rs ty in better shape this year than guarantee an & per cent return for “s > : gl eg ¢ . “j | any time in our history. the next 18 months at the rate of 2 ogee ‘ teat Se $e: sy It is admitted by all concerned that per cent a quarter without touching ’ sh tes 5: 4j|tho assessment and equalization of any of the asco fi oe present j= 9 . $ eos.
