Walla Walla County Levy Raised From 14 to 16 Mills. The county commissioners havo raised tho tax levy from 14 to 1G mllla with an additional tax of 2 mills for road purposes, snys tho Walla, Walla Statesman. Present Indica tions are that the current expense fund will be exhausted somo time be fore the end of tills fiscal year, and that the county will then have to meet Its bills by tho Issuance of in-terest-lwarlnE warrants. The experts who havo been work ing on the county's hooks since April aro still drawing $15 a day and will probably continue to do so till tho end of this year nt least. Tho extra ordinary exiHsndituro will inako tho deficit in tho current expense fund still larger and may necessitate hit other Increase In the tax levy next year. How's This?

The popular booka ol the day aro The METTLE of the PASTURE by Allen GORDON KEITH by Page THE ONE WOMAN by Dixon 1 THIS CAIili OF THE AVI L.D 1 by London I THE C1REY CLOAK byMao drath , . ; Oetthem FRAZIER'S TAX LEVY REDUCED FIRST FRUITS OF NEW ASSESSMENT POLICY. Valuation of Pendleton School DIs. trlct Will Approximate $1,500,000 Expense of District About $13,000 Higher Than Last Year Consoll. datlon Rapidly Growing In Favor. Now that the tax assessment has been made and the books are almost ready for tho shorlff. nnd tho schools aro running, tho people of the district begin to think of the levy for the next yenr and how much ot their earnings they will have to pay tu support tho educational institutions during tho year to como. Last year the valuation of the lnnd In this district wnB $1,050,380,511, and the tax Icvy amounted to 47 mills on tho dollar. This year It will not bo so much In levy, but more In assess ment valuntlon. Last year the state nnd county tax amounted to 2S mills, tho school tax to 10 mills, and the special tax to 9 mills. This year the nmounts will ho less all through. Rate of Taxation Much Less, According to the estimates of As sessor Strain the assessments for the district tills yenr will total at least $1,500,000 nnd perhaps more. This Is taking the assessment of last year as a basis and adding to it the known increase in tho valuations of tho prop erty In the district. With this in crease in taxable property It will be seen that the rate will be much less. Lnst year the district raised $10,00n by special tax and this yenr the man agement of the schools of the city will need perhaps $13,000 to carry on the work of tho city schools. With the Increased base from which to draw It will still decrease the rate of taxation almost one-third. It Is estimated by members of tho school board that the state and coun ty tax will not be higher than 17 mills, tho school district tax about S mills, and the city Special .tax in the neighborhood of C mills. It is thought that this rate will not all the funds necessary for the carrying on ot tlie work for tho next year and by that time it is probable that an ar rangement will bo made that will still further reduce tho rate. Concerning Consolidation, For some time tho question of con solidation has been discussed by those interested in tlie schools here and in the revenues of the city ,nnd the district. The people of the ad joining districts wunt to enjoy the benefits of the nine mouths .school and the city facilities in an education al line, while the men at the head of the city school mnuugement arr in favor of the scheme, for the reason that It will reduce tlie rate of taxa tion by giving more taxable property, and for the further reason that the city is educnting nt the present time many of the children In these ills- tries nnd deriving no revenue there from. The people of the suburban districts move into the city tu the winter, send their children to the schools here und stand no pnrt o; the expense of tile district. The movement to remedy this was start ed some time ago and was given a further Impetus In the compromise effected yesterday In tlie partition of district No. 27. Tho principal residents of the south part of this district have al ready moved Into the city with their families, and will send their children to the city schools. It Is their ex pressed hope that In n short time it will be possible to merge 25, 2" and 44 with the district of Pendleton, (and isorhnps more on the other Bide of the city,) Into one big district. The ladles of tho women's clubs of the city have taken, or will take, the matter up and It will lie brought be fore the election next Juno, when It will he settled. If this Is done it will bring many thousands of dollars more taxablo property into tho Pen dleton district and Inside of two years decrease very materially the rate of taxation In tho city as far as schools and tlie school fund Is con corned.
