ASSESSMENT OF SCHOOL TAX,

The annexed letter from the Chief Clerk of
the State Department of Common Schools, in
regard to the proper mode of assessing School
taxes, may be of service to the School Direct
ors in the different School districts. 1t was
written in reply to one asking for the official
construction of the law on this subject. We
find it in the Reading Journal:
Secretary's Office,
Dept of Common Schools.
Harrisburg, May 81, 1850.
john S. RlcHARDs, Esq.-Sir: Your let
ter of the 25th instant, enquiring what is the
proper construction of the oath section of the
act relating to Common Schools, passed 9TH
of April, 1899, SO far as the assessment of
school, taxes is concerned, is now before me.
Although there is some ambiguity in the Sec
ton alluded TO, yet careful examination of
its language and the terms used, will lead to
the result intended by the Legislature.
In levying the tax, it is the dnty of the
board of directors iii the first place, to assess
upon all offices and posts Of profit, professions,
trades and occupations, and uTon all single
freemen above the age of twenty-one years,
who do not follow any occupation, any sun,
which they may deem prOper and sufficient,
not erceediEg the amount assessed on the same
for State and county purposes: eTcept, that the
sum assessed on eoch, (otiice, post of profit,
profession, trade, occupation, and single free
men) shall tn no case be tess than fifty cents.
Having done this they should in the second
pLace ascertain the baAGnce Of tax TO be raised,
and apportion il upon the property of the dis
trlct, made taxable for State and county pnr-
poses. Farsning IS not deemed an occupati0n,
as contemplated in the School Law.
Under the foregoing provisions, persons
holding office, &C., may be assessed mare than
fifty cents, but never less. Their property is
also liable to be assessed with the other prop
erty Of the district, for the balance of tax TO
be raised, after the first assessment shall have
been completed.
In The foregoing, have emphasized those
terms considered most significant in the sec
lion, for the purpose Of leading the mind to a
more clear appreciation Of their Importance
Very respectfully,
Yours &c,
For the Superintendent.
