BADGER VALUATION

IN 1912.
ADVANCE IN REAL ESTATE
milwaukee County Leads in Assessed
Wealth and Shows Gain Of $34,214,-
12S-Dane County Shows Decrease
on Personal Property.

Madison Taxable property in Wis,
eonsin, real and personal, has in
creased in value as compared with the
state assessment of 1912 in the sum
of $15e,557, 2S9, according to the as
sessment made public by the state tax
commission. The total value fixed for
all property for the year 1918 is ST.
9S,lS7, 705, as against $2,S41. 630,416
for the previous year.
A great proportion of this increase
comes on real estate which for the
present year is assessed at S2,464, 1884,.
706, as compared with $2,SOS, 301, GIL
for 1912, an increase of $155, 793, 095.
Personal property for 1913 is assessed
at S634,092,999, as against $533, 32S. sos
for the previous year. an increase of
$764,194
AS nearly as may be this assessment
shows the real increase in value of the
property, particularly of real estate,
in the state, for it is made from year
to year on the same basis, and while
the standard of valuation used may be
arbitrary in some cases it is supposed
| The fact that not only Dane county
| but several others as well show a fall
ing off in the valuation of personal
property is due to the fact assessors
| OF incomes, as supervisors of assess
ment have had invoices of merchant
and manufacturers stocks upon which
! to base assessments. This is the first
year that these invoices have been
available and this fact has made it
possible for assessors to get more near
| ly at the facts and as a consequence,
in many districts the valuations have
been lowered. Heretofore these as
sessments of merchants and manufac.
turers' stocks have been arbitrary, as
assessor had no means of knowing or
learning the facts.
Milwaukee county shows the largest
valuation, being assessed for the pres
ent year at $5S2,S1S,247 for all prop
erty, of which s451 1874, $50 is for real
estate and $131. 423,98 for personal
property. This is an increase for Mil
waukee county of $34,214,12S for all
property.
Dane county's assessment for the
present year is STAT, 1897, 45S, as com
Ipared with s136, 60O,741 for the year
previous, an increase of $40. 796,712

STATES WISCONSIN
FACES BANKRUPTCY
TREASURER JOHNSON SUGGESTS
CONFERENCE TO HEAD OFF
ANY DISASTER.
EXPENSES MILLION A MONTH
New Revenues From Taxes VIII Not
gs Available Until Next February
and March--onIy $1.5oo,ooo on
Hand Now.

Madison.-That something must be
aone to save the state from bankrupt
=, which threatens before the end of
tbe year is evident from the fact that
state Treasurer Henry Johnson sound
Cd a note of warning and called upon
the state officials and heads Of depart
ments to come together and discuss
the situation.
To those who have kept themselves
informed upon the financial condition
Of the state this action by the treas
urer is not a surprise. In fact, it is
hut an echo of a previous warning
made to the legislature by the same
official when he gave notice at the
time the lawmakers were in session of
what was likely to occur unless some
thing was done to ward off the i'm
pending danger. The legislature, how
ever. failed to heed the warning, and
now State Treasurer Johnson feels
called upon to bring those in authority
together to see if something cannot be
done to at least soften the situation.
Mr. Johnson said that the running
expenses of the state institutions and
departments are approximately ST.,
100000 per month, based upon the
1918. For the present year of course
the expenses will be somewhat, if not
very materially greater. These facts
appear in the figures shown for the
year ending June 10, 1913, when the
total expenditures of the state were
S16SS9,52474. OF this amount there
was returned to the counties for one
purpose or another $4,191, 096.1S, which
shows that the actual running ex.
Qenses of the state for that period
were. s12, 79S, 42S.5S, or little better
than a million a month.
On Sept. there was in the treasury
little more than $1,500,000 useable
funds as follows:
General funds ........ 81, 269, 953.90
University fund ......... 50, 1913
School fund ..... 236, 99084
Normal school fund $500. 6,545.15
Total ............. s1,605, 949.02
Oh course. there are other and nu-
merous small funds, but they are not
available for current expenses. Until
the taxes levied In November are
paid into the treasury, which will be
next February or March. there will be
no appreciable addition to these funds,
and it is from them that the expenses
of the government must be paid. 1t
takes no mathematical prodigy to dis
Germ that at the rate of a million
month, million and half dollars will
last but month and a half-then
