Collection OF 1908 taxes will be begun
on Monday the necessary books having
been received from the printer. Every
thing Is now In readiness for the rush
which is bound to come. Because of
the increased valuation OF timber lands
this year many inquiries are being re-
ceived at the sheriffs office. One tax
payer from Mlssoula, Mont, asking an
explanation OF the notice he had re-
ceived. He said his 1902 taxes am
ounted to $3.50 while this year he Is
taxed more than $44 on the same prop
erty. To such requests for information
postal cards containing the following
statement are sent: "Tn reply to your
inquiry regarding taxes for the year
1903, would say that the timber In Clat-
sop county has been cruised by timber
cruisers upon the order Of the county
court. Each claim is assessed accord
ing to the amount Of timber thereon.
This accounts for your taxes being
higher this year" In many cases tax
payers who own timber lands will be
required to pay three. four and five
times as much taxes as on the 1902 roll,
and there is bound to be much inquiry
in consequence.
