The one-Mill Tax.

The state tax commission has
raised the valuation of taxable prop
erty of the state from $o3o,ooo,o oo
in $1,000 to $I,436,2S4,ooo, an in
crease of $500, 284, ooo-morc than
doubling. In one respect this will
make an increase of tax. Where a
specific amount is to be raised the
valuation of property-whether it be
high or low-makes no difference
in the amount of the individual tax.
for the rise in value will be balanced
by lower rate on the dollar, but
where, as in case of the one-mill tax,
the sum to be paid is SO much on the
dollar, the higher the valuation the
greater tax one must pay. The law
requires that tax of one mill on
each dollar of the assessed valuation
shall be raised throughout the state
for common school purposes, which
amount is to be distributed to the
several counties in proportion to the
number of children of school age.
This one-mill tax this year will be
$I436, 2S4 as against 100000 last
year. AS Pierce county's assess
ment this year is $9,297,67o, it must
pay $9,297 as its share of the one.
mill tax. The number of children
of school age in the county in 1905
the date of the last available report
was S49I. In that year it received
from the state $3.50 in the distribu-
ton of the one-mill tax, about IS
cents to each child of school age.
If the number of children were the
same this year as in 1898, for the
whole state and the county, this
county would receive as its share of
the one-mill tax about $17,2oo, some
$1,000 more than it pays as its share
of the tax, a sum nearly double what
it pays, showing that the one-mill
tax is a pretty good arrangement
for Pierce county. This city should
receive from this fund about SILL 50.

Concerning Assessments.

1t appears from the report of the
Secretary of State that lands in this
state in 1898 were placed by the
state board for the purpose of levy
ing state taxes at from an average of
$I.I7 an acre, the lowest for any
county -Washburn-to $36.I4, the
highest for any county-Ozaukee.
Lands in Pierce county-363,o3I
acres-were assessed at $3.50 an acre
and the lands in St. Croix county
-46I,54r acres-at $3.50.
The total valuation of all proper
ty in Pierce county in the year I'M
der consideration was, as given by
local assessors: $4,433,o4o and as
equalized by the state board: $4,536,-
1872. The total amount of tax raised
in the county for all purposes was
$I3o,oS5-$I7,672 was paid to the
State Treasurer; $59,2S2 was the
county tax and the balance, Soo,I2I,
was for current expenses in the sew
eral towns, cities and villages includ-
ing schools.
The total assessed valuation of all
property in St. Croix county for
the same year was, as assessed: SO,
oI9,S34; and as equalized by the
state board: $6,lSI,Io2. The total
amount of tax raised was $ISI,2oo,
of which $4,000 was the state tax /;
$48,8o6 was for county expenses and
the balance, $Io7,445, was for cur
rent expenses of the towns, cities
and villages, including the schools.
1t is interesting to note that in the
disposition Of the county taxes Pierce
county paid in salaries to county Off
GERS $500; court expenses, $1,000;
support of the poor, $2,l79; sheriif's
accounts, $2,I7o and $772 for Jail
expenses. In St. Croix county in
the same year $500 was paid as
salaries to county officers; court ex-
penses amounted to $1,000; support
of the poor cost $7,IS7 and sheriff.
accounts footed up $5,42o.

Through all time handshaking
has been pledge of friendship.
Modern history records no other in.
stance of man attempting to mur.
der a statesman while he was hold
ing his hand in a pretended friendly
grasp. This deed will make a rec
ord in treachery. 1t is a fearful
blow against the democracy of our
presidents. 1t will be necessary to
separate them more than formerly
from the people, which is greatly to
be regretted."-E

not stoop without great pain, nor sit in
chair except propped by cushions. No
remedy helped him until he tried Elec-
trio Bitters which effected such won
derful change that he writes he feels
like new man. This marvellous medl-
cine cures backache and kldneytrouble
purifies the blood and builds up your
health. Only SOC at Taggaft's.
