State tax rate likely 50 cents per $100 valuation
The State Board of Equalization finished its work and the tax rate for Illinois may rise to 50 cents per $100 of assessed value from 40 cents. Despite a $52,000,000 rise in total property value, a 20 percent rate increase is needed to cover 1908 expenses, aided by the war claim revenue. Officials urge prompt transfer of on hand fees to the state treasury by January 1 while noting revenue sources may still fall short. Some Missouri reformers are urged to vote Republican early and often across the river in Illinois.
