Should Study the Law

Before they make their plans to
serve on a jury. if so fortunate or
unfortunate to be selected. the wo-
men eligible to such service should
study the law and learn its pro-
visions, for some of them might be
unpleasant. For instance. in section
eight. the new law provides that in
felony cases the mem bers Of the jury
shall be kept together and in the
custody of the officers of the court;
and whenever the jury are kept to-
gether in the custody of the officers
when the trial is not in progress, they
shall be provided with meals at regu-

TAXES OF THE STATE
ARE S27,083,979
Owing to Increase in Valuations
There Is Lower Late This
Year Than Last

OLYMPIA, June 9-During the
year 1910, $27,OS3,979 was levied and
will be collected as taxes in the state
of Washington. This Includes the
amount of taxes levied for all pur-
poses state, county and municipal,
the amount paid by public service
corporations and the sum borne by
other property in the state for the
year 1910. In other words, il con-
stituteS the amount that was levied
and will be collected by all taX-levy-
ing boards in all taxing districts, but
doesn't include local Improvement
assessments nor federal taxation.
Rate Somewhat Reduced
This sum is $2.090,103 more than
was raised in 1909, when the total
taxes amounted to $24,993,S76. The
figures. which have been compiled by
the state comm ssion show, however.
that the average levy for the state
upon the assessed valuation and the
levy upon the actual valuation have
both been reduced. In 1909 the
taxes were raised upon an assessed
valuation of $79O,419,S26, or an aver
upon the assessed valuation, or 1859
mills upon the actual valuation. In
1910 the assessed valuation was
$906, 247,944, and the levy upon the
assessed valuation being s29.25 mills
and upon the actual valuation 11,46
mills.
Cities Take Most
out of the total sum raised, SEQ
455,312 was levied upon real estate
and $3,429636 upon personal prop
erty. while the railroads paid s.
334.146 upon their railway track
and right of way and $324,176 upon
their railway rolling stock and equip
ment. OF the amounts raised the
biggest part went to the various
municipalities all over the state, as
$7.034.791 was raised by the cities
and towns; the school districts come
next with $4,693. 900. while the county
general tax totaled $S.l20.000, and
the county schools went $2,5S4,00O'
