In April (alls the sunny showers All nature's dressed in gav attire, Spring on us many a blessing pours A season which we all admire At the November term of the circuit court R. II. Walker, ol Cedar Mills, brought suit against Washington county and the Board ol Equalisation to have the proceeding of that body reviewed. He made the claim that he had not re ceived fair treatment by the board in the equalisation ol taxes and demanded that be be given relief by the court. The case was brought up before Judge Mc Bride at the closing days of the last term and he decided that the board had made no error in its proceedings in regard to Walker's property, the writ of review was denied and the case dismissed with out cost to either parties. This decision may have a tendency to'prevent people who think they are being discriminated against from rnshing into court to air thulr grievances and to stop and take a second thought. It ii not the mission of the board of equalisation to treat any one unfairly, but on the other hand, to do justice to all.
