Hill, J.
(concurring specially)—The statute requires “All property shall be assessed fifty percent of its true and fair value in money.” RCW 84.40.030. There is no convincing evidence that any of the property with which we are concerned was assessed at more than “fifty percent of its true and fair value in money.” The increases in assessed valuation of which complaint is made, and whatever the percentage of increase, seem to have no more than brought the assessed values of the property a little closer to the level required by the statute. I find no evidence of lack of uniformity. The complaints against the assessor by the plaintiffs are without foundation. For these reasons I would affirm the order of dismissal entered by the trial court.
