Through the courtesy OF County
Auditor Wardall, The Record is in re-
ceipt OF the county estimate for 1918.
1t is an interesting document. A pc
rusal convinces one that the expense
account of the County OF King for one
year is simply staggering. The aver
age citizen is accustomed to thinking
in units and tens, but when it comes
TO millions--he shakes his head and
dismisses the. matter with wave of
the hand The high cost OF living
means that salaries must be increased
and the items under the head of Main
tenancen are 'swelled each year. The
levy covering "Road Districts" will no
doubt impress many as small in com
parison with other items OF expense,
But all will have an opportunity to ex-
press their views on Monday, Oct. lst
Mt 200 p. M, in the court house, when
the county commissioners meet for the
purpose Of making the tax levies.
