70 the Voters and Taxpayers OF klanl-
ath County:
feel that should advise the peO-
Cle If this county Of the actions Of
The Board Of Equalization just COM
pleted. In which they made reductions
In assessments to several of the tim
Der corporations Of this county, and I
wish to make public my protest to the
board Of equalization on their actions,
wrich follows:
To the Board Of Equalization Of
klamath County. State Of Ore
gon.
In addition to my verbal protest
against the reduction Of the assess-
ment OF the Weyerhaeuser Land
company, Western Pacific Land and
Timber company. A. c. Hopkins
and others holding timber in Klain-
ath county. l fls this written pro.
test against the action Of the board
OF equalization In eliminating from
taxation the d. timber belonging to
the parties mentioned above. In
townships IS, range Z. 37-7. 38-7
and 1878. ! protest against this
action not only because It IL an in
justice to eliminate fr timber from
one section Of the county and assess
1t in all other sections. but because
it is taxable property, and therefore
cannot be wiped OF the tax rolls.
also protest against the action
of the board in reducing the assess-
ment of the Weyerhaueser Land
company's hay land adjoining the
Doak ranch In township 36 range Z
to the extent Of $s,575. some por-
tions of which were reduced by the
board to an assessment Of $3.50 per
acre. and other portions OF which
were reduced by the board ON the
basis or an alleged timber cruise.
when there Is no timber on the
land, and has not been for some
years. (Signed) J. p. Lee.
Assessor of klamath County.
The board Of equalization made a
let reduction in the amount of my
of the timber people In
his county of $79.07s. OF this
$45.775 was cut from the
OF the Weyerhaueser Land
,ompany alone, together with the re-
luction Of $S.575 on the hay land
in my protest above. or q
,otal reduction to the Weyerhauser
'eople OF $54.350. The balance of
|33.297 timber reduction is split be-
ween the Western Pacific Land and
Timber company. A. c. Hopkins. and
,thers. This timber reduction was
made by the elimination
rom the tax rolls OF fir timber in the
ownships mentioned in my protest.
Ind 1t is manifestly unfair. to my
mind, to take this timber on the
oils just in that section of the c0un-
y, leaving other sections OF the cOun.
y with the 6r assessable. There are
many individual timber owners in this

FIRST ANNIVERSARY IT THE

reservoir was full yesterday. During about half the time, and at some inter- vals, had been running over in great sheets of white water. Even now, three months since the last great flood, the water is pouring two feet and 16 hundredths over the spillways. And the weather man says there is enough snow left in the high valleys of the Salt and Tonto basin sheds to keep the flow high for some time to come.
 All the water that has been flowing intO-and out of-the lake for the past two months has been melted snow and rain. Two years of heavy precipitation have made possible the insurance of the valley against drouth for three years more, to say nothing of the immense waste of water that has gone down the Gila.
 In his address before the republican rally Friday, Senator Burton of Ohio suggested that the time might not be far off, when all this waste-and in some cases harmful waste-might be turned to some good account. He noted the place where the Gila had carried away the MaricOpa bridge. It took SOME water to do that, and it was still one of Arizona's problems to control that water not only to prevent more damage, but to make it useful on thou sands of acres of fertile desert
