Inc general revenue fund grows
from nine-tenths of n mill in 1910. to
one n ntne-tenths mills in 1911. an
increase of exactly one mill. The road
and bridge fund grows from five-hun-
dredths of a mill to twenty-five hum
dredths a nincrease of two-tenths of
a mill. The university campus shows
a slight decrease. The soldiers relief
prison building and school tax fund
levies will be the same as in 1910.
According to estimates made by the
state tax commission, the total assess
ment of property this year will be APP
ProXlmately h same as last year
$1.195. 900, 200.
One Mill Brings $1,l5O,OOO
"A tax OF one mill, allowing for de-
l~tnquencies which always occur. will
yield approximately s1.15o.ooo. Com
puted on this basis. the 3.SS mill levy
this year will bring into the treasury
approximately $4,630.00O. as against
$3,225,O0O returned by the 81 mill tax
IN 1910. Were all taxes to be paid
no delinquents be reported at ail-the
levy would produce many thousand
more dollars.
The two-tenths mill increase in the
road and bridge fund will bring APP
ProXimately $4,000 into that pocket.
Ten levy for university campus will
net something less than $l75.0OO. For
soldiers relief the income will be
about $115,000 and for the prison
building about $275,OOO.
Maximum Fixed By Law
legislature of 1909 prescribed
That there should be collected for the
general revenue fund in 1909 and
1910 axe amounting to $1,1OO, 900
and fixed the maximum levy at one
and two-tenths mills. In 1909, how
w 1t was found necessary to levy
only n mill, while in 1910 because
OF n inheritance taxes and back
taxes on railroad gross earnings, the
levy vas cut to nine-tenths of one mill
and the state still had left enough
surplus to cancel, $85O,00O worth of
capitol certificates The legislature of
1911 prescribed, that there should be
collected for the years 1911 and 1912
taxes amounting to $4,000, 900 for each
year and fixed the maximum amount
of the levy at one and nine-tenths
mills. And it has been found neces-
sary. according to Mr.. VERSIONS es-
Inmates. to collect this full amount
of n and nine.tenths mills for the
revenue fund.
Reason For Holding Up the Rate
Because of the reduction in ship
ments of iron ore and the consequent
iessening Of railroad gross earnings
taxes and for the further reason that
there Is no material increase in as
sessments," Mr.. Iverson said, I'VE
Will not be able to reduce the tax levy
this year. A n mill increase in the
tax levy will be required for the gem
erai revenue fund. This increase, to-
gether with the increase in the road
and bridge fund of two-tenths of a
mill, should yield US something more
than $1,410.000 but the delinquents
probably will cut it to about $780,
O0O."
The AK levy outside of the state
school taxi will amount to two and six.
ty-fve hundredths mills. The state
school tax is levied in addition to the
local and special taxes for school pur-
poses.
