ESTIMATES TUXES
COUNTY ASSESSOR MAKES
COMPARATIVE SHOWING.
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.
