1917 BUDGE I Court Presents Estimates and Sc.sDeccmber 29 as Day for Hearing Objections anJ Discussing Levies The county court lias act Uccembn 2) a the day ofr hrarinii. objection to tht 1V17 tax roll and for doom ing itc m in the budnet. The biuif t rails for $339,505 to be raised b tax ation this year, which is $M17 1e than last year. The amount railed last year was $346,922. Linn county is one of tfie few tax levying bodies in the state which ha not taken advantage of the law per mitting a fix per cent increase tn tun over the previous year. The court hat not only held down on the matter of increase, but has cut the levy at well. The court was helied somewhat in lowering the levy this year by the receipt of hack tax money from the Oreiron & California grant lands However, the present administration deserves credit for this money, for during the past three years the tax levies were planned with this money in view annually, and when it was held up the court arranged the ex penditures of the county to the let ;i.'iMe advantage under the t-ircuin-st.in.v-s. I.itin county has one ot the lowest t.i levies in the state. t!ie levy this yc-ir amounting to approximately II..1 mills, and is in better financial con dition than any other county in the state. At least none are better. Linn county is rfee from debt, there are no outstanding warrants, and no bonds await interest payments and maturing in the future It has been the policy of Judge IV B. McKnight aid Commissioners T J. Butler ami J. IV Irvine to piy for things as thes go. and the county is now reapinc the benefit. The conditions brought on with this country's svar with Germany anil her allies is demanding the strictest kind of economy and this county's careful planning in the past puts it in splendid shape to he'.p out with any kind of war emergency work. The budget as set forth by the court i as follows: ttittTfst Otl Ultik (!ei! .. County Clerk's trrs I ounty Recorder's fees fees collected bv sherit. civ fees and other ileitis ,.
