To the Honorable Board of County Commissioners, 111hatc om County, Washington. Gentlemen You are herein submitted my estimate of the probable expenses of Whatcom, County for tiie ensuing fiscal year. This estimate to serve as a basis in aiding your Honorable Body in li determining and fixing; the several rates of county and. state tax levies for the year 1906. �i CURRENT EXPENSES. The probable amounts of expenses chargeable to the Current Expense Fund for the fiscal year in .question, it is estimated will be as follows: County Poor and.,,PRnxt Farm :;�55000.00 Care of Poor at Hospitals 42000.00 County Prisoners 12200.00 Repairs to Bui ldinos 500.00 Telegraph and Telephone Service 400.00 Coroner's Inquests 200.00 Bridge Tenders 120.00 Superior Court 152000.00 Justice Court 6,Oo0.00 Records and Stationery Supplies 22400.00 Legal Publishing 350.00 Job Printing 12000.00 Fuel 425.00 Lights 750.00 Fruit Inspector 300.00 Postage S00.00 Insanity Cases 250.00 Elections 31000.00 Salaries of Officers and assistants 36,000.00 Miscellaneous Expenses 1.1000.00 Total $752695.00 222 .Record of Commissioners' Proceedings g October Term Wednesday. the 3rd day of October 190 6. OIP:ther.above amount it is estimated that there will be raised from sources other than taxation the sum 'of 140, 000 heaving a. net probable expense ' payable aut of the current expense fund of. $35,695 to be raised by taxation.. You will observe, from tlie' foregoing' that- it is not anticipated' that there will be any marked increase ih expendltiires for any purpose over previous years, except in the matter of courts; but ' in regard. io tie` expenditures .off both .Justice and Superior` Courts, it i"s believed that they will be some" 'f ive' or six thousand dollars greater than 'their were during the year just passed. Icy. belief in this direction is based upon the heavy expense incurred during the past few weeks- "in- holding an.; extended term of the Superior Court.' and there are many indi- cations that the coming; year' will' witness an increasing volume of court business. Therefore, in order to avoid crea. ting' .a deficit in the Current expense Fund, I deem it advisable to provide in your tax levy for court expenses in the amounts above indicated. You will alos observe that the coming November Election is another item that must be and has been provided for in the foregoing estimate. An. examination of the records of this of- fice shows that tie expense of holding the regular biannuai eleetio'ri in the past has been about $3,000 for each ,general election, and this experience of the past has furnished the basis upon which, the' present estimate is made. For Bond Interest'purposes there will be required the sum of �10,575.00 to meet inter- est on county bonds','but as there is some available funds to offset this amount, in part, it will not be necessary.to raise over $9,000 for this purpose. Por general, road, purposes there will be required the sum of $20,000 and such additional sum as Your Honorable .body may deem advisable to 'raise "to apply 'on the' existing indebtedness of the General Road Fund. For General -Bridge purposes there will be required the sum of $20,000 and such addi- tional sum as .your honorable body may deem advisable to apply on the existing indebtedness chargeable against the general Bridge Fund. ` For the Relief of Indigent Union Soldiers` and Sailors there will be required the sum of $750..00. a , In view of t}le' foregoing I would recommend a, tax levy" for county purposes as follows: COUNTY LEVIES Current expense Fund 2.45 mills .General Road Fund 2.25 mills General Bridge Fund 1.50 mills County Indebtedness Fund 1.22 mills Bond Interest Fund .50 mills Soldiers relief Fund .05 mills This would make a total' county.levy of 7.97 mills'''' For accordance f 01101FJs'. For General Purposes, For school Purposes "For Military Purposes For Highway Purposes For Interest `Purposes' STATE EXPENSES. tlhe purpose o f .meeting, state expenses, the state authorities have notified me in with lavr; 'that theyhave ' levied taxes against Whatc om County for the year 1906, as $38.,643.47 56.,143.14 2,3o6.76 4,159.'00 233.18' The actual valuation of property' 'assessed 'in the 'county'for the year 1906 is <$16,513,5s6.00 although through corrections and cancelations this valuation is subject to some slight but not to' a material change. As the law specifies the amount of taxes levied ij puted and fixed said rates i able property of the county General Fund School Fund Military Fund. Highway Fund STATE TAXES. that I shall compute and fix the_ by the state against `this county of levy for the ,year 1906 against for state purposes as follows: STATE LEVIES. Total rate"of levvy required to raise for state purposes, I have com- each dollar in valuation of tax- 2.30 mills 3.34 mills .14 mills .25 mills 6.03 mills This levy for state purposes together with the amount recommended for county purposes would make a total levy of 14 mills on each dollar of taxable property in the county, which is 3 mills less _than. the.total levy for the preceding year, but in view of the increased value of the county it will.raise the amounts required as above set forth. As the amount demanded by the_ state ,for interest purposes is smali�, 'it will hardly justify the expense of computing -the tax upon the various items of assessment to raise this amount, and I would therefore recommend that a warrant be drawn upon the Current'EFXpense Fund of the County, for $233.15 in favor of the State Treasurer in payment of this tax.

NOW THEREFORE, by reason of the foregoing, it is hereby ordered by this Board, that upon the payment to the County Treasurer of all taxes charged against the above described tracts of land and improvements thereon, for the y ars 18992 1900 and 1903, the.
