clusive of the district school tax now authorized by law, not to ex-
ceed thirty cents on every one hundred dollars value of the real and
personal taxable property in the several districts of said county;

paying district expenses, it shall be lawful for the several district
boards of trustees asking such increase to use the same for payment
of teachers’ salaries.
