valuattosaoftown lob. over last year,
asd tbe high wseeamentof boraeaaod
aitle. No real estate baa declined io
valae like town and city lots since 1692
ud horses and cattle will not sell for
what tbey are aaessed at.
It wm undoubtedly to meet the czar
like ultimatum of tbe state board last
year In raising town lota thirty percent
that assessors made sucb an advance
ob that class of property this year.
That illustrates the evil eflect of as
sumptions in deallogwitheucb matters.
Tax levies on town and city property
t In flxed mills, aDd usually to the
fall limit of the charter.
This most perishable class of real es
tate, town and city property, should be
reduced, If It could be done with fair-
mm and Justice to other Interests. But
hew cam it be done without Increasing
the burden on farming property? After
ail tbe city Is better able to stand It
than the farmer. Tbe city lives oil tbe
farmer. It gathers toll oQ tbe producer
asd to be relieved of taxes at tbe ex
pause of tbe farmer is out of tbe ques
tion. City taxes should not be levied
i'ia specific mills.

very thorough and conscientious aa
aeasor. His work Is well spokea of by
all. Tbe taxpayers committee wbo ask
that tbe lutegrity of tbe Marion coun
ty assessment be maintained desired to
pay 'heir aaseasor a bkh compliment.
JBut they did not mcau that auy luus
fctse should be done to Marlon county.
They did not mean that her farming
taods should be valued at fourteen dol
