Helena Independent. ., . Valley county is about to »sub mit! to the yote.rs the -question o f 1 raising bonds to take lip. the exist- • ing indebtedness, and referred the matter to ’Attorney General Has- • kell. The latter has written the county authorities lo ihe effect that no election can be held, on that matter until the state board of equalization is through* with the assessment. The consti tution says that, no county can in-' cur an indebtedness beyond five per cent nl'llie assessed valuation of the property in' tlie county. Un til an assessment is made it will • be impossible to learn how' much debt the county, can incur. Val ley, being a hew county, has no complete assessment yet. The; county assessor has made his as sessment of' all the property except, that of the railroads. The state board of equalization will assess the railroad property. Until they are through Valley county will not know how far it can go into debt. One or two''others of thé, new counties are contemplating ¿he sa me step and will also have to wait.
