orERo COUNTY TAXES.
Total Tax to Bc Collected oo,502. 4
More Than Last Year-lndivid.
ual Taxes About the Same.

Although the total tax 10 be col
lected for the year 1914 is slightly
higher than last year the tax OF
each individual will be practically
the Yame--with q slight increase.
The total tax to be collected for the
year 1914. Is $602.34s.l3, as COM
pared with $5S4.74S.2S for the year
previous. an increase Of $6,598.l4.
Almost this entire increase is for
state purposes. The tax for state
purposes In Otero county collected
last year amounted TO 332.ss0.4a,
while for this year II Is S3s.7sl.sl.
an increase OF s6.sl4.4s. The tax
for county purposes last year was
$l76.04s.sS. while for this year II
IL only $ls1,S7s.02. = decrease Of
Sl3.l7l.ss.
The tax for high school purposes
is also $2S2.S7 less than last year.
Originally the levy for high school
purposes was the same as last year,
LIZ mills. but Assessor Gauger had
to reduce the levy one-tenth Of mill
for the reason that the levy certifi-
ed to him increased the tax more than
five per cent over the previous year,
and five per cent increase in the
tax for any purpose is the limit un-
der the law. This reduced the contem-
plated revenue for high school pur.
poses over $4,000. and made a
slight decrease IN the total tax over
the previous year.
Under the law II is not permissa BILE
to increase the tax for any year
more than five per cent over the pre-
vious year. without securing permis-
sion from the state tax commission.
