TOTAL OF TAKING VALUES
UNLESS STATE BOARD MAKES A
RAISE THEY WILL STAND.
Nearly 100000 For the Whole
County and $50, 100000 For Salt
Lake City.

Unless the state board of equalization
orders an increase made in the assess
ments of property equalized by the Salt
Lake county board of equalization, the
figures will remain at the aggregate as
certained yesterday by County Auditor
Wood. After a thorough notification, the
auditor found the total equalized values
for the county TO be $36, 919, 254. This sum
includes 1854. as in railroad and wire line
properties assessed by the state board
and the total is 1851. 93i less than the ag-
greSate amount upon which taxes were
collected in Salt Lake county last year
In 1898 the state board raised realty val
ues 81, 09+. the per cent increase max
ing difference of $l.476,37S in the city and
$246. 716 outside the city.
Exclusive of the assessment on rail-
road and wire line properties. the valua-
tons on property within Salt Lake City
are $295l4.075 AS soon as the state
boards assessment on the two classes of
property are apportioned the full total of
taxing values for the city will be known,
but conservative estimate places the to-
tai at $50, 10000 upon which state. county,
municipal and school taxes will be col
lected in this city. However, any raise
made by the state board will make an ap-
preciable difference in the aggregate, but
small in amount to the individual tax
payer. 1t is quite generally suspected
that the state board will not break its
record by failing this year to raise Salt
Lake City'S or county'S taxing values.

Councilman Fernstrom wished to
have the report referred to the board
of health, but his desires were over
ruled. and the matter was referred to
the committee on sanitary regulations,
because the council and not the board
Of health had called for the analysis.
Professor Hadley made an analysis
early in March for the city engineer.
The analysis then made was expressed
in terms varying from the reported re-
suits of the professors more recent
demonstration, and a comparison of the
quality of the two samples OF water is
not easily made.
Professor Hadley's analysis made
early in March showed as follows:

of 10000 grains; permanent, 5.S5 grains

CHANGES RECOMMENDED BY
ENGINEER KELSEY.
New Connections and Valves to Be

ing Care of the Dead Supply of
New Meters Ordered.

The water supply question occupied a
slice of the councils time last night,
but there was little debate and prac-
tically all OF the actions taken was by
unanimous vote. The Republicans, for
some reason, failed to make their usual
effort TO gain cheap political capital,
and the result was a harmony that was
as refreshing as it was unusual.
Accepts Engineers Ideas.
Superintendent Game submitted a
communication embodying note from
City Engineer Kelsey, suggesting
changes in the water system at a total
estimated cost of 81, Az. Mr.. Game set
the seal of his endorsement on the sug-
gestions, and recommended their adop-
ton. The recommendation was unan-
imously approved and the work ordered
done.
The changes proposed are, first, a
connection by which the portion of the
city between First and Fourth South
streets, heretofore supplied from the
middle system, be supplied from the
lower system; second, that a pressure
regulator be put in at the intersection
of Fourth South and Eleventh East
streets. and that the district supplied
by the high line system be extended 10
take in Fourth and Fifth South streets
as far east as Tenth East, Eleventh
East street from Fourth to Sixth South
streets. Sixth South street from Elev-
enth to Twelfth East street.
Third, that a bypass be put in at
the intersection of First South and
Eighth East streets, connecting the
main on First South street with the
main running south on Eighth East
street: fourth, that a connection be
made between the main Oh Eleventh
East street and the main on Sixth
South street; fifth, that the main on
Tenth East street be extended to Sixth
South street, and the main on Sixth
between Ninth and Tenth East streets
east to the east line of Tenth East
street. The engineer added that he
was making further Investigations,
which he would report in due season.

wouldn't vote for the resolution. His
