STATE TAX HEARING HELD
c Commissioner Jackson Takes
Testimony of Kennewick and
Richland Witnesses

For the purpose of taking
testimony on the actual trans
fer values of real estate, State
Tax Commissioner G. r. Jack
son held a hearing in the Com
mercial club rooms Tuesday af-
ternoon. This was one of a Sc
ries of hearings which the
state tax commission is holding
in all parts of the state, for the
purpose of obtaining values to
be used by the state board of
equalization in equalizing the
values fixed by the county
boards. Record is made of the
actual sale value of specific
pieces of property in each coun-
ty and the values are compared
with the assessments made by
the county for the purpose of
discovering the ratio of taxa
ton in the county. The state
board informs the county upon
what valuation the state levy
must be based.
Mr.. Jackson took the testi-
mony of number of Kenne-
wick and Richland men who
have bought or sold real es-
tate on a cash basis within the
last few months. He also ques-
toned witnesses as to compar-
ison of the present values with
values two or three years ago.
The witnesses were agreed that
there had been a decline in val
ues due to a scarcity Of buyers
and money.

PEAR CROP IS STOLEN
One Highlander Loses Fruit
and Another is Minus a
Bundle of Paper

There are more ways htan
one of disposing of fruit crop.
A. H. Lehnard, of the High
lands, has disposed of his pear
crop with no misunderstand-
ings as to price nor any quarrel
with commission men. And yet
he is not satisfied with the re-
turns. Somebody stole tie
crop.
Last Thursday night unbid-
den callers entered Mr.. Leh-
hard's orchard and harvested
the pear crop. Some of the
fruit was carried away but two
sacks were left in a fence cor
ner. Thinking that the thieves
would probably return for the
rest of their plumber, A. st.
Laurent, a neighbor, stood
guard over the sacks until after
twelve o'clock Friday night,
Nobody showed up, but the
next morning the sacks were
gone.
The same night a 50-pound
bundle of fruit paper was taken
from the packing shed of r. e.
