Jasper County Democrat, Volume 10, Number 18, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 3 August 1907 — STATE TAX LEVY IS RAISED. [ARTICLE]

STATE TAX LEVY IS RAISED.

Notwithstanding the great increase in natural wealth of Indiana each year, the state tax levy is being boosted every once in a while, and for this year the state levy will be 33.35 cents on thesloo valuation, or 2 cents more than last year. The increased valuation will run away up in the millions, and with the old levy would naturally bring in a great many thousand dollars more than last year, but the crowd who are running the Indiana ship of state appear to have no trouble in spending all the increase and then howl for more.
