Through your columns I would like to
ask the tax payers of Wasco county how
they like the new method of assessment
viz. 75 per cent..of the actual value of all
property, real and personal. I find that
owners of property are taxed 25 to 30 per
centmore than they were on the same
amount of property last year. What has
happened to Waaco county that its value
should be so much enhanced in one short
year.; Will some farmer ae dissatisfied as
