VALUES HAVE GONE DOWN
Consequently the County Tax Levy
Will Bo the Same as It
Was Last Year.
In the countv nt latge, as In the
city, t hoi o has been u niatked depie
clatlon In real i state values nnd, as
a const (itiente, the expected i eduction
In the county tax levy Is made impos

last oar, when a half mill was added
to tho regular levy to ptovlde for the
pavnient of the blldgps
The valuation this jeir Is $11, ",94, 677,
or 11,110 000 liss than it was last piu.
Of the total Miluation, Scianton has

The only explanation of the deoipao

pis Is th it the triennial assessment

of the decrease Is that t oal tracts
