Tax Rate May Take a Jumn.

The County Commissioners will prob
ably make the tax levy next week, and
from all indications there will be an in
crease in the county tax rate, which is
now elghty-flve cents on the one hun
dred dollars. A year ago the County
commissioners reduced the rate from
S8K cents TO the present rate.
Two Of the County Commissioners said
that they did not see how they could
help out make substantial increase in
the tax rate. They cited several addi-
tlonal demands on the part of the School
Board and other increases. caused by the
acts of the Maryland Legislature.
On Tuesday, June 10th. representa-
tiveS of the School Commissioners went
before the County Commissioners and
asked for about $4,000 for the opera
ton of the schools, teachers salaries,
and for new buildings. This is an in
crease OF about thirteen thousand dol.
lars. The commissioners took no &C
ton in the matter.
1t has been reported that there is an
increase in the taxable basis OF Mont
gomery county of about $500. 900. 1t is
thought that there will be similar IN
crease IN Frederick county's basis. This
will have a tendency to keep the rate
from soaring out OF sight One man
said recently that the rate may Jump
about len cents. and it would at least 90
to 90 cents on the hundred dollars.
One OF the County Commissioners said
recently that some sale books were com
ing into the office for the transfer of
property, which affected many people
and that this was doino n LOT tn hold m
the board from making the levy and hx-
ing the rate. The levy must be made
during this month.

1t is not denied that there is something

certainly deserves the proper recognition,
which has no doubt been delayed up to
