AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT

To the Taxpayers u Clalsop County.
Oregon
My attention has been called TO an
a idress circulated throughout Cta,sco
County by the Tax Papers League n
this city, dated Sept. IS. 1899. The ad-
dre.s is Incorrect, and unfair as to the
statement of Clatsop's financial con-
di,ion. 1t says
Notwithstanding the great Increase
IN the rate Of taxation. our municipal
lties have not been able TO pay their
current expenses. from the taxes raised
thereby. Th- indebtedness of the
county has Increased from slO3 .a2g % in
1894. To about Sl32357 in 1895" How
incorrect unfair and deceiying such
a staten mt is, eaa ,- seen by IN. Pol.
