VOLUME 1. NORTH VANCOUVER, 11. (.. FRIDAY, JANUARY 19, 1! NUMBER 2-2. In the New Public Schools Act as Regards Rural District Schools—and as It Affects North Vancouver District. 1, North Vancouver municipality has three schools to consider, namely: (a) The North Vancouver school, with its two teachers, requiring annually for salaries $i,- 320; anil (or other purposes say $150 more, The government grant in future will he Si,1:0 a year; and the balance of $.150 will have to be provided by a local rate in the school district. This school district embraces the whole town- site and to the distance of two miles north and west to the Capilano river. (li) The Moodyville school, with one teacher; salary,?boo, and expenses say Sbo. The government ■;r,int will be S340 a year and the balance of $120 will have to be raised by a local rate in the school district. This school district cm- braces Moodyville and north to north end of timber limit 12, and oa;.t to Seymour river. (c) Within the Moodyvill district then: is the Lynn valley as sisted school, which will be fully provided (ur by the government unless they, as seems likely, cut oil and form (or ii a seperate Behool district, in which case it will also havo to Dud anuut ,mjj by locui rates for school purposes. 2. The local tates required in each school,district liov ■ to I"' levied on the assessed value ol tin real proper'*, j the personal property, and the personal menu i ol nil iii Lie district, and Ihe Usual exemptions are not allowed. 3. The procedure prescribed is as follows: (&l After 1st of January when the act comes into operation tlie school trustees must supply thf municipal assessor with a list ol all persons liable to be rated for school tax and a statement ol the .11110111)1 oi money they require. (li) The assessor must then main up .111 assessment roll, and set opposite the name o( each person tin. value o( his personal property, and his real estate and the amount ol his income, and he (the assessor) will apportion the amount to be raised pro-i ala according to the valuation. "No one class ol property assessed being charged a higher rate than another." (c) There is an appeal in thc council against the assessment and they will sit as a court of revision. (d) A full copy o( the assess nii'iit roll is sent to the sup' rill tendent ol education. ie) The collector of the district collects the school rales and p 1 them over 10 the department 11 education monthly, with a detailed statement of ihe amount collected. 4, The net makes no provision (or tlie expense of making tin assessment or collecting the school rales, yet all the work is spei i.tl and apart from thc ordinary dutii s of the assessor and collector. It is not too much to say that for work, books, stationary, and postage an expense nf at least $300 will have to be incurred in the three districts to raise a total revenue of $600 for school purposes.! There are no means provided whereby the assessor can asui-j tain the value of personal properly owned or amount of personal in comes. The only way possible is by asking each individual to make a return to the assessor, but that cannot be insisted on under this act, 5. In Moodyville school district a proportion of the fund will have to In provided by the Moodyville sections, which are assessed by llie government assessor; as his valuation of these lands is very low and out of proportion to the municipal area, these sections will have to contribute much less than a fair ratio of the whole sum raised, yet all the school children are located at Moodyville. ift and all this money, with the exception of n lew hundred dollars for repairs on other portions, has leen expended between Sixth street nml the waterfront, a dis- i.imf ol approximately a,.|oo feet, or, at a cost ol Sj.75 per lineal loot. In other words, if dollar bills were placed side by side 1 noi lengthwise) between ihe wharl ami Sixth I street they would not cover the Morden for Councillor of cost of the still unfinished narrow The Elections To-morrow Between Reeve Kealy and Councillor Bell for Reeve and R.

He was returned at a liye-elcction last summer to lill the unexpired term ol Keeve Gill, and has performed his duties in a most earnest and thorough manner.

All interested in >tiii' itional affairs should acquaint themselves with tlie administration il ihe school business as outlined. Under the new act more power is given to, and more responsibility upon, the taxpayers. With re- caul to the board of trustees just electl' it may be said that they all have had considerable aibniuis- trative expi rience, and will no doubt give close and most careful attention to the business now entrusted lo litem. Tlie amount necessary to lie raised by special levy for the three schools mentioned will he about $700. Mr. Kealy would appear to be a personal one.
