Then it will keep several men busy from that time until the first of) Aug.'St Ketttng the rolls ready. "Heretofore," said Assessor Bu i an.

It will be assessed up March. It will be tubject to tav cor-- to the last owner under whose nam.- If was recorded Puzzles the Assessor. Mr. Huzan is at a loss to know how to get at the values of every man's property. Heretofore real estate has been assessed at whatever price the man owning it said anil manv times this has been much below Its real value and below what he would think of selling for This Is the reason the county is in debt and causes an extra mill or two to have to be added to the tuxable proiterty every mi often. "This." said the assessor "Is a mis. lake, and every piece of land ought to be assessed at Its real value. I am at a loss to know whether to assess every place at Just what It is valued at when plaeed on the market. 01 go on ass-s.siti); a- has always been done If Umatilla county is worth a dollar. It Is worth today from $22.000,. ofttt to tL'D.iMni.iMn and the assessment last year was only fti.ltl8.579.ti4. which Is tho secret of the county's Indebted ness." Another thing that is puzzling the Assessor Is iiow he Ik going to get over the rsises from one township to i another The light land In the west end of the county cannot be assessed a high as the heavier land in other place. At some place there has to be a raise ami If the assessor makes , Cool the Blood In all Cases of itching Burning Humors with the CUTICURA RESOLVENT While Cleansing the Skin and Scalp with hot baths of CI ' I I CUKA SOAP and healing the Raw, Inflamed Surface with CDTICUkA OINTMENT.
