TEN PAGBB. paojb nvtt. Some Facts Owing to considerable dlscussio.. regarding the county's expenses foi the lust year, and the desire of some to see a report of the same, ana espe cially that part pertaining to the road and bridge construction, a statement of the same seems timely. The following Is a statement of re ceipts und expenditures of Umatilla county for 1907, as shown by the records In the clerk's office: Receipts. Received from taxes $166,614.63 Miscellaneous receipts . . . 10.996.0U Total $177,609.63 Disbursements. County court, judge and commissioners' salaries.

"court house," "Jail," "care of poor," "miscellaneous." "bridges bulli by contract." and "roads and high ways." are fixed by law, and the couh ty officials have nothing to do with them. The money for these expend) tures Is appropriated' by the county court, and the clerk has an Itemized record of every warrant so ordered and drawn.

Sixty-seven thousand dollars Is a large sum of money, but this Is a large county and has 3700 miles of county roads, exclusive of the Indian reservation. The county assesment for 1908 was made with an aim not only to meet the county's current expenses, but to raise enough money to pay off $16, 000 Indebtedness of the general fund and call In $40,000 In road warrants now outstanding. It Is Intended to clean up the road-fund debt and place It on a. cash basis, so when any one does work on a county road and gets a road warrant he can go direct ly to the treasurer's office and get the cash for It This $40,000 road-fund debt, which the county started with the first of the year 1908 was caused and Incur red by road repairs necessary after the floods of 1906-7. In addition to the assessment ne cessary for the road fund, nearly every school district In the county has voted a "special school tax" of Its own, and effective only in its own school district. The special school taxes In the various districts will raise about $72,000 as "special school money. ' , The combined levies for all pur poses wero estimated to raise on all properties $361,880.82 in 1908. Near ly $177,000 of this money, constating of the special school levies or tne va rious districts, the Intended $15,000 Indebtedness of the general fund to be paid and the $40,000 In road war rants to bo redeemed, and $27,000 special municipal taxes In seven towns and cities of the county, should be considered extraordinary and un usual expenses. The complaints heard are not so much because of the high taxes, but of the unequitable assessments upon personal property. In past yeurs it has been the custom of the assessor's office to assess prop erty at one-third Its actual cash val ue However, at the last session of the legislature a law was enacted re quiring that all property be assessed at Its full cash value This law chap ter 266 of the general laws of Ore gon, filed In the office of the secre tary of state February 28, 1907, reads very plainly. The first section Is as follows: "Section 1. The county judge, county clerk and assessor of the sev eral counties of this state shall con stitute a board of equalization to ex amine and correct the assessment rolls returned by the assessors In theli; several counties, and to Increase or reduce the valuation of the prop erty therein assessed, so that the same shall be full cash value thereof, and to assess omitted taxable property, In the manner hereinafter provided. The board shall meet at the court house In the several counties on the third Monday of October In each year und the county clerk shall lay before tno board the assessment rolls re turned by the assessor. The county Judge shall, If present, be chairman of such board, and the county clerk shall, If present, be clerk thereof. Two members of such board shall constitute a quorus thereof." In making the change from the old custom of asressing property at one- third Its cah -alue to assessing It at Its full cash value. In compliance with the new law. the assesor's office har taker the assessment rolls of foi mer years and has multiplied it by four to get the valuation for 1908 on a full cash value basis. On land val ues, by multiplying Its former assess ed value by four, brought the land up to about its present cash value, because land, as a rule, Increases In value from year to year, but on Der- sonal property, such as buildings, farm! chincry. etc, where the value natur ally decreasos by age and usage, the multiplying of its former assessed value of one-third by four brought It up above Its value and often above what It actually cost This Is shown In the case of the B. F. Beun proper ly on court street. Mr. Benn paid $22,600 for this property, and In 1907 tin assessor assessed it at $8600 or practically one-third its cost and val ue. This year It is assessed at $34. 000 Cases of similar character are numerous. The county court and county offi cials other than the assessor. In adopting this erroneous method of multiplying the former one-third valuation by four to get the actual cash value, are in no way responsi ble. Taxes are high, but owing to the unusual amounts voted for schools. nnd necessary repair of roads, It can not be helped or avoided Proper and equitable adjustment of property val ues by the assessor s office will rem edy all Ills and save the .county board or equalization when It meets tht third Monday of next October, a great deal of hard work.
