Jones Seeks Re election For County Commissioner
The county records praise Bill Jones for cutting Teton county debt from 724000 to 462000 between 1920 and 1926 and cutting tax rates to 30 mills while planning to retire all debt by 1938. His leadership allegedly lowered expenses, improved financial standing, and streamlined warrant signing to save costs.
