the recent IcgiHlature is referred to the
people for final deeialon..
The law If ratified, provides for the
following IncreaHea:
County JuUku, from 1,800 to J2.
400. County treasurer, from H.&00 to 2,
OlIU. County elerk, from f 2.000 to $2,400.
liei'ordcr of conveyances, from $1,
tliiO to $2,000.
County sheriff, from $2,f,d0 to $3.-
000.
County assessor, from $1,500 to $2,
4 00.
County Superintendent of schools
from $l,h(iO to $2,400.
On Old VMhl.
With two exceptions, the salaries
paid to county officials today have not
been changed during the past 23 to
27, years. An addition of $300 has
been put on the payroll to the credit
of the county treasurer during that
time, and the county judge,' after the
business of the county makes it Im
perative that full time be devoted to
the office, was given more pay. The
county clerk's pay is the same that It
was when the old fee tystem was abol
ished about 18!8.
Facta brought to light on the pay
received by the county assessor dis
closes the fact that for several years
the deputy assessor has received a
higher salary than his chief.
LalMirs More Ardrious
Since tho salaries were established
at the rate that now prevails, a study
of figures shows that the valuation of
I'matllla county has Increased from
the $7,01 7,4 73 It was 25 years ago to a
present valuation of $58,000,000. The
increase in valuation has also entailed
more labor and responsibility on the
part of tbe officials. Comparisons
with the valuation of other countries
In the state shows that Umatilla I
second only to Multnomah county. In
salaries paid to county officials, there
are ten counties in the state where the
pay exceeds that of this county.
The work that must be performed
now by the assessor has increased
more than five fold during the past
quarter of a century. Besides the ne
cessity of fixing valuations on prop
erty valued at $."8,000,000, tho as
seHSor must now take care of tax ex
tensions, an item of heavy labor that
was not reiiulred then.
Hesponsibil;lles increase.
The office of the county treasurer
requires that the treasurer shall be re
sponsible for a. great deal more mon
ey than formerly was handled. Dur
ing the past year, more than $2,000.
OOil was received and disbursed
through the office. About $300,000
school money Is also in charge of the
treasurer for loans. During the past
four years Irrigation district work has
been added and the county has been
bonded for $1,050 000 for roads.
Under tho provisions of the law the
sheriff will get an Increase of $500 If
the law becomes effective. The lnV
provides, however, that all fees col
lected on criminal cases shall he re
turned to the county. The expense of
auto hire and upkeep and for tele
phone and telegraph bills assumed in
chasing suspects must he homo by the
official himself. It Is claimed that the
expense of the office on criminal bus
iness alone during April In chasing
bootleggers and other cases of a aim
ilar nature amounted to $200.
Tho salaries of the county eommls
sinners remain at $,"i for each day for
every day devoted to county business
with 10 cenls a mile allowed for trav
eling expenses. This mileage also ap
plies to iho county judge.
Tax Iiiorvaw.
The total Increase will amount to
$3,700 a year, and computed on tho
valuation of the property in the conn
IV, this would call for an added six
one-thou.'iands of a "mill, or to a tax
paver whose valuation Is $t 000, It
would mean additional taxes of 6 1-4
cenls. Those taxpayers whose valua
tion is Jlti.oini would be taxed $1 ex
