Revenue Which Oregon
Must Furnish for 1909
Expenses-Increase Large
PALKM, Or., Dec. 23. Tho total
amount of revenue to be niiitpii for state
pgrom-N for 1009 will be approximate
ly $1,075,000, of which about $400 000
will h (lfrivfrd from indirect Bourren,
having $1 ,275,000 to be apportioned
among the several counties. This amount
in $125,000 greater than the levy last
year and $250,000 frreater than the levy
two yam ago. The increase this year
la due In part to the holding np of the
.University of Oregon appropriation bill
last year, by reason of which the levy
for 1908 was at the rate of $47,000 per
year, as provided by laws then in exist
ence, Since the appropriation bill has
gone into effect carrying an appropri
ation dating back to January 1, 1907,
it will be necessary in making the 1909
levy to include a Univnrtiity of Oregon
deficit of about $155,000. . The 1809
levy will include $100,000 for the pur
chase of the Oregon City locks, Should
the legislature repeal the locks appro
priation bill, this $100,000 will be in
the treasury subject to appropriation
for other purposes. One instalment of
$100,000 has already been levied,
The levy will not be made until early
in January, 1909, but the total amount
here indicated, $1,275 000, is close
enough to the actual amount that, will
be levied so that county courts may act
upon H in computing their shares of
state taxes. Already a number of coun
ties huvo bon anxiously inquiring what
the state lovy will be, Under existing
laws, tho apportionment among the
counties will be made nt a fixed ratio
which has been in force a number of
years,
Jackson county staads ninth in the
state in valuation. Iler ratio of the
$l,27fi,000 Is .0314.
