Among the excellent meusiires Pimct ed into law by the lute legislature was the hill of Mr. Munlcy providing for one assessment, and one collection of tuxcH. This hill abolishes city and school dis trict uBsensors, and provides for the levy ing of tuxes bv city nnd district nuthori- Willinms the grocer is going into the ,, certificate from tlm county llusmiic building on the corner of Main , nHH,,HHor of n,,. totul umount of assessable property on the rolls lying within tho boundaries of the city or district. The assessor then extends the city and dis trict tuxes opposite tho state nnd county tuxes, iiml the collector collects them all atone time, paying them to the treasur er, who keeps them in separate, funds. The grunt advantages of this system lire apparent. It is not a new one, but the one prevailing in tho majority of tho states where, the tux luws are system mixed. Under the old law the tinlortunnto property-owner w as put to much trouble to pay tho tuxes. Ho hud to goto tho courthouse (or bis county taxes, to tho city hull (or his city tuxes ami to come uncertain place (or his school taxes. He was assessed at a different valuation in each place and the collection begun at diflerent times, so that he could seldom muke one job o( it. In addition to this, the three assessment rolls made it neces sary for attorneys to go to three places to ascertuin whether property was delin quent for taxes Increasing the labor and expense of real estate traiih'ers and the uncertaintity of titlos.
