GITY ASSURED OF A SURPLUS Assessor Computes Val-.: uation for Year's | Revenue. | Notifles the Supervisors That the Roll Will Aggregate $415,105,184. e Assessor Dodge yesterday completed the total assessment roll of the city and county for the next fiscal year and sub- mitted his report thereon to the Board of Supervisors. The total assessed valua- tion on which the city’s revenue will be raised amounts to $15195,184. This in- sures an excess revenue of about $100,000, as the tax budget was based on a valua- tion of $405,000,000. If the city does not lose that amount by return of protested taxes it will have a surplus fund to be used fbr various purposes. In his report the Assessor says: The assessment roll for the coming yeas smounts to $415,195,184. This insures a revenue Bt least §300,000 greater than that which your board had at its disposal last July. This additional revenue, together w'th the un- | expended surplus of last vear, due to a similar increase in the sssessment roll of that year, Eives 2 total of §565,000, which 1s now available Zor meeded public improvements, and for liqui- dating the city's indebtedness to its creditors, including its school teachers and merchants. hile our revenue has thus been increased, largely through the assessment of newly discov- DEATHS DURING THE LAST YEAR Statistician Brown Sub- mits Report to the Health Board.

Upon the presentation of the fact by The Call that the bids were far too high, the Supervisors and the Fire Commissioners threw out all bids with one exception. The Fire Commissioners have awarded the bid for oats. Under existing condi- tions there is every reason to suppose that the clty will get a much fairer deal when the new forage bids are opened than it had under the old bids. The bid for supplying oats that the Fire Commission- ers have accepted was made by Simon Erlanger, and was for $138% per 100 ounds for No. 1 white oats. This is far Peyond 'the actual worth of the oats. Some way may yet bé found to have the oat bid rejected. The price of oats has been steadily falling. e crops of oats, barley and hay are exceptionally large this year. One month ago red oats were bringing $1 40 to_$1 4 on ’change.
