Because of the increased valuation of timber lands this year many inquiries are being re ceived at the sheriff's office. One tax payer from Missoula, Mont., asking an explanation of the notice he had re ceived. He said his 1902 taxes am ounted to $9.80 while this year he Is taxed more than $44 on the same prop erty. To such requests for Information postal cards containing the following statement are sent: "In reply to your Inquiry regarding taxes for the year 1903, would fay that the timber In Clat sop county has been cruised by timber cruisers upon the order of the county court. Each claim Is assessed accord ing to the amount of timber thereon. This accounts for your taxes being higher this year." In many cases tax payers who own timber lands will be required to pay three, four and, five time as much taxes as on the 1902 roll, and there Is bound to be much Inquiry in consequence.
