SOLDIERS' HOME MKMIlHlt liO.NGS FOR II IS CHILDREN. Ilaiiilful of in layers Transact OOO Worth ot Business Riverside Gets New Building. At the regular annual meeting held at the Lime school building tills afternoon, a tax levy of 9 mills was voted for general school purposes in the Roseburg district for 1910-1911. This law will apply on a total of $2,490,585 worth of taxable property, raising $22,470. In addition this amount, tho district will receive about $8,000 in combined county and state funds, making a grand totnl of over $30,000 available for disbursement.

As usunl, the feature of this afternoon's meeting waB tho scant attendance. Exclusive of three directors the school bonrd and two members of the corps of school instructors, there wore prosent by actual count Just eight taxpayers. At that the directors, much against their will, hud to take the initiative in the proceedings, and on two questions that were submitted to viva voce votes less than one-hnlf of the small assemblage voted "aye," whllo tho rest did not vote at nil. The Indifference of the taxpayers ivas especially felt by the directors 'in this occasion because it was necessary to authorize them to ex pend nearly $5,000 In ituproveinonts needed for the coming calendar year. Partly by their own votes thoy wore compelled delegate such authority to themselves, but tho other taxpayers present upponrcd perfectly with tills course.

One item ot tho projected Improvements is the Installation of a modern heating plant In the Lnno school building, costing about $3000. Another Is the construction of a school building at Riverside to cost not more than $1 200. According to the very conservative estimates of District School Clerk George Neunor, it will require $22,000 to meet current expenses and Incidentals during the next school year. This includes, among other things, $15,135 for salaries, $5000 principal and Interest on bonds, and $800 for wood. After the running expenses and cost of projected Improvements 'are met, there will be a residue from the original $30,000 or about $3500 with which to pay off a deficit from tho prosent school' year and stnrt the now year with the best looking balance sheet in tho history of the district.

During this afternoon's moetlng, Attorney R. W.
