Some of the boys took advantage
of relaxed vigilance to perform
Hallowe’en tricks on the night
after, or on Tuesday evening No
vember 1, which does not strike us
as a sportsman like performance.
Hallowe’en night, with marshals
and watchful property owners to
dodge, the boys get some sympathy
in their efforts to arouse the ghosts
of the occasion, but that sort of fun
on any other occasion is a different
sort of thing entirely.

In a statement gi\en out by the

state tax commission in Salem last
week Polk county has the lowest
assessment of any county in the TiSES2525cS2SB5HSH5H5HSZS2SHSE52F25HS2S25H5c5Z52525Z5!Z5Z5-25ZSa5ZSZS2S2'^
state— 38 per cent. Ranking next
is Washington with 39 per cent.
Counties under 50 percent are I.anc
46, Benton 46, Crook 46, Des

48. The highest assessment in the
state is Sherman with 72. #>f

taxes are assessed at what the state i- 2 StSHFZ£iS 25 ZSES 25 ZSZS 25 aS
commission considers a 1 0 per cent
valuation. Low assessment merely
helps us to present a big tax rate
to people who come to inquire into
economic conditions in our midst.
But the 32 per cent valuation gives
us a new angle on affairs in Pofk
county. Monmouth is assessed at
50 per cent and a special effort has
been made in lecen t years to even
go a little above it. If the county
average is 32 there must be other
spots' in the county considerably
less than 32 per cent in order to
make the average. This is worth
