As a Result of Mr. Strain's Assess ment the Levy for the Year Will Be Reduced by Nearly 25 Per Cent In me county Total Assessment May Reach $9,000,000. noTK on the assessment rolls lb progressing very rapidly and already three of the first letters of the al phabet list are completed. county Assessor C. P. Strain has made footings of the lists now com plete and from these Is able to make very close approximate of the total assessment of tho county. By taking tho comparative assessment In the letters A and B, In tho years 1902 and 1903, tho total this year will reach very nearly $9,000,000. The net assessment last year was $5,004,000 and the county lew of 2S mills produced $15S,592 In taxes. The net assessment this year will reach at least $S,C64,000, or an increase of .MUiu,ooo. A tax levy of about IS 1-3 mills on this amount will produce $158,592, or tho same amount raised last year, with a 2S mill tax. Assuming that the Increase Is as great within the city as outside, and assuming that the school and city rxpenaiiures snail not exceed those of last year, Mr. Strain estimates that the school and city levies, taken together tills year, will be less than 12& mills, which, ndded to the county ami state tax, will make a total of less than 31 mills. The state board of equalization meets on tho fourth Monday in Aug ust for the adjustment of taxation, and there promises to be little work for the board in this county this year, as the assessment Is very satisfact ory. Very few cases will be up for adjustment, as the tax levy for tho county promises to be reduced by Mr. Strain's assessment, at least 10 mills. The assessment of this county has been very close, not an Item of value escaping the assessor's eye, with the result that more taxpaylng propel ty has been found and more just values fixed, so that while tho taxes of some few men will bo higher than usual, the general tax levy will be reduced about 25 per cent for the county. A change that would result in a saving to the county of at least one third of the expense of making the ! tako leal estate assessments only once in four years, instead of each year, as now. Fully one-third of the time of the assessor is consumed in going over real estatB which does not lluctuato in value, enough In four years in this country to make any ap preciable difference In the assessment.
