Thrift Confers vvim luucu mbn uunucm- ing Values Assessor T. J. Thrift was hero from Coqulllo Saturday evoning and yesterdny to confer with local mm tolntlvo to tho 1915 assessment. AIv Thrift Is still In doubt as to tho baslB to bo used In tho valuations this year and before adopting -i fixed schedulo wished to got tho views of some of the lending men in tho county. Mr. Thrift says that Inst year, tho town lots paid 42 per cent of Iho taxes In Coos County, whllo the tlmbcrlnnd pnld only .'IS per cent. TIiIb left 20 per cent for tho farm lands nnd moneys and crcdltn nnd pcrsonnl property to pay. He dos not think that this is hardly a fair rntlo. Mr. Thrift holds that tho timber lnndB should bear n largo portion of tho tax and will probably ImBO his assessments accordingly. I.nst year tho county bonrd of equaliza tion reduced some of tho tlmbor ns Bcsumontu. Last Wednesday, n conforeuco was ihold at Coqulllo which Mr. Thrift, ngnlnst tho tlmbor assessments bo- lug Increased. Mr. Conrad wnnts tho nsflossmonts on Homo of tho outlying town lots advanced Instead of tlmbor being raised. Ho claims thnt If parties aro platting tracts nnd putting them on tho mnrket at from ?200 to $lo0 per lot, thoy should bo assessed at somowhero nenr tho prlco tho own ers arc putting on tho property, ln stend of being assessed at a very small flguro so that tho tax hardly pays tho county's clerical expenso In bundling them. ' Mr. Thrift says that whoro lots aro assessed for less than $" nplcco, tho county loses money on onclt of them, unlosfl ono owner has u largo number of lots. Ho snys by this he means that tho cost of assessing, entorlug them on tho rolls, etc., more than equals tho taxes paid. Thoro aro something over 70,000 town lots in Coos County.
