BANK CASHIER IS
IN TROUBLE
FALSE REPORTS CHARGED BY
PHILOMATH INSTITUTION
Said to Have Been Defrauded to Ex-
tent of $175OO By Worthless
Notes and Otherwise.

CORVALLIS, Or, Nov. 2.-Charg-
ed with making and publishing false
reports of the condition of the First
State bank. of Philomath, James
Evars, cashier of the bank, has been
in the custody of Sheriff Gellatly
since 7 O'Clock Sunday night, and
is still unable to find bondsmen for
the $4,000 bail, the amount fixed by
Justice of the Peace Lane, of Cor
wallis. The sheriff signed the com
plant at the instance of State SUI
perintendent of Banks Wright. This
charge is but one of a number that
will be presented to the grand jury.
Notes Worthless.
Investigations of the banks affairs
discloses the fact that while Evars
and his wife own $1,000 of the cap
ital stock of $4,000, the cashier so
manipulated accounts that he really
paid on account of the stock only
5000. The remainder of his sub
scription of $4,000 is represented by
notes and signed by names of peo-
pie whom Evars claims live in the
east. The notes are now considered
worthless by the other directors. The
banks loans to the Philomath cream
cry, in which Evars owns con-
trolling interest, total $25,6OO, while
probably $4,000 can be realized from
the cNeamery accounts and sale of
the plant, leaving a net loss Of about
$17,5OO. The Noon Lumber company
owes $4,000, but this loan is ac-
counted good. The banks liabilities
will apparently exceed its assets by
$4,000 or $4,000.

YEAR.
GO TO COUNTY COURT SOON
Figures Prove Big Advance in Value
of Taxable Property in Polk
County Since Sheriff Grant Took
Office Five Years Ago-Amount
then Slightly Over $4,000.

After strenuous work on the part
of Sheriff J. M. Grants s office, the
last payment of the 1910 taxes have
been turned over to the county treas
urer. The final amount, which in
cludes the payments up to the last
of October, was 29,3S3.06. The
work of balancing the rolls will now
be taken up and in a short time
the account will be summarized and
turned over to the county court.
Big Increase.
The total amount of taxes col
lected this year equals 1921, ,842.72,
which is based on an assessed valu-
alton of $14,512,896. A year ago
tn taxes collected aggregated 1884,
$500, from which it may be seen
that the increase in one years time
is $37, ,3O4.43.
Five years ago when Sheriff Grant
first assumed his Office, the whole
amount of taxes collected amounted
to but little more than $118,0O0,
which is striking evidence that Polk
County is advancing in the valua-
tiOn of its taxable property.
