Clerk Luce last week received
the statement of taxation, esti
mate of county valuation, etc.,
from the State Tax Commission,
and incidentally the amount of
college and Normal taxation
which must be paid by Washing
ton County at the coming tax
payment.
The millage bill gives the col
leges and Normal the following
amounts:
Oregon Ag'l College.. . $10,730.63
F.ugcne 8.047.64
Monmouth Normal ... 1.073.06
Total for three $19,851.58
The valuation of the county for
state purose was fixed at $26..
K26.712 which i less than $300
of the value estimated by the
Argos some weeks ago Last
)ear the valuation was at twenty-five
and one-half millions, and
with the increase of the rolls
over last year the Argus figured
that the state valuation would
run to twenty-seven millions.
The total state tax to be paid
by our county is $89,600. More
than onw fifth of this goes to the
support of ths universities and
Normal. This is taxation with a
vengeance, eh?

SOUTHERN
Agent Shinnaberger states that
the Southern Pacific Company
will have an imposing two-story
structure at the Panama Exposi
tion. The building will be 75
feet in heighth, with a ground
space almost equal to San Fran
cisco's new million dollar audi
torium. The structure will be
in the heart of the grounds, and
there will be plenty of room for
the company's -exhibits. The
t.ieatre will seat 400 people. The
exhibit room will be 200 feet
square, and while the nature of
their exhibit is not revealed it
oromises to be unique.
The Company nas stipulated
with the exposition people to re
serve between thirteen and four
teen thousand feet of space in
one wing oi me structure ior
such space a may be desired by
other transportation companies,
x. I A. k. M
rail or steamer, and offices of
this kind will be confined to this
building. The convenience to
exposition visitors of concen
trating the transportation olnces
in this manner is obvious.
In addition the building, which
nVsiunod bv the Southern
Pacific Maintenance of Way De
nnrtment will have rest room
for men and women, a smoking

While building operations have
not been very extensive in Hills
boro for the year 1914, tilL the
old county seat has had no par
ticular reason to complain. The
building of the new condenser
plant in South Hillsboro, repre
sents sufficient money to have
erected several big buildings in
the residence section. The Pad
fic Coast Condensed Milk Com
pany is now Bearing completion
of the big brick, tile and cement
structure, which will take care
of their enormous Hillsboro
product at an expense of per
haps $125,000. when all the work
is finished.
This building has taken a great
deal of labor, and a large crew
has been engaged in the work.
The building is a credit to Hills
boro, and an honor to the insti
tution that owns it
The Carnegie Library, build
ing. which represents an invest
ment of $10,000. is the only
building of promtience up town.
although the Bump cement build
ing. on Main, is a no mean ex
penditure. This office building
is the best of its kind in the
city. Walt Taylor did the con-
crete work, and the structure is
absolutely fire-proof.
Ferd Hartrampf'a new garage
on Main Street is another new
business structure.
The Food Products Co. have
added some capital to the build
ing plant and this about covers
the commercial building of the
city.-
Several new residences have
been built however, chief of
these being the splendid new
home of Cbas. E. wells, near
Fair Acres property. This is
one of the Class A residences of
the city, and will be ready for
occuDancv in a few weeks.
Mr. Shannon, of the Hillsboro
Mercantile, has also completed a
fine new home on West Main,
and it Mfdit to the town.
