IIOSEBURQ AND VICINITY. Fair Tonight and Thursday. Xo. 1 vol. in. ROSE1IUKG, DOUGLAS COUNTY, OREGON. WKDXKSDAY, NOVKMllKIt 1, 1011 EgS3SSHHal!II - W SUMMARY iuatious Show Material In crease Over Year 1910, TAX LEVY MAY BE INCREASED Intimated Tliat t'ouuty Court Will Authorize The Construction of Tliree Bridges During The Next Yeur. County Assessor Frank L. Calk ins this morning completed the task of compiling the assessment roll of Douglaa county for the year 1911, upon which the property owners wtli pay taxes In the year 1912. The summary furnished by Mr. Calkins is taken from the original rolls and may be changed materially by the board of equalization, now In session, during the next few days. The valuations for the year 1911, as compiled by the assessor, total (27,238,000.00. while in the year 1910, the valuations were approxi mately $25,837,176.00. In other words the valuations for the year 1911 show an Increase of over $1, 000,000, when compared with the valuations of the year 1910. While the members of the court will not make the general levy un til the January term of the county court, it Is intimated that it will be a trifle higher than last year, when th fltRte nnrt enmitv lew wan fixed at 10 mills. The contemplated increase in the levy for 1912 is due to the fact that two, and possibly three bridges, will be constructed during the next year. One of these bridges will replace the Umpqua structure, another the present Winston bridge, and a third will probably span the Umpqua river in the vicinity of the Curry ranch, In Garden Valley. Other than the county and state levy there will probably be the usual number of special road assessments during the coming year. In Roseburg, the taxpayers will probably face a higher levy than for years, considering the contemplated increase in the 3tate and county levy. The city levy for the year 1911 was fixed at 10 mills, or an amount equal to the school levy. With a city levy of 10 mills, a school levy of 10 mills, state and , .county levy of 10 or 11 mills, plus the usual road levies, the taxpayers of Roseburg can prepare to meet a levy of no less than 34 or 35 mills. While there are some taxpayers who believe that the city levy should be reduced, such appears almost Impos sible Inasmuch as the current ex penses of the municipality are gradu ally Increasing. Other than from the regular citv tax, little money is re ceived by the city, save through the nresent ststem oi occupation licenses.

This was when a well known mnn on Cass street, who recently embarked in business In this city. voluntarily offered to make a sub stantial subscription to the fund.
