Mr Marvin said he thought the passage Of the bill
would tend % equlyzs tsXatl9n- result that thu far
had been 1h ;ult - reach The multiplicity Of the bills
that from year to clno before the legislature sho -
ed plainly thh taeie was az uu quAl working Of tue

make the ohle less unstable. Towns that have re ain
ed listers 10 ofi for long time h,d bean very jude

the OH stable. The changing Of on yons ister
each ycar aud retaining the other two In Off the
board Of listers the bsned gilmore peIience than where
the listers are changed entire every year II would
lead % care Ia me lion Of suitable men for toe
Office, and should Ear " les complaint The ground
Of the unequal working OF our LISTING laws, and men
could not 80 easily keep their property out Of the grand
list un ier IN law ii exists. tie referred to
the form OF oata required be aAea BY the lisefs and
the fact that the practice has 9ea % set IeI eate in
the us very ich ID yer than its actual value, AMI
that the oath resrbed in the oil equ'ed the listers TO
certify tina they have real and personal property
Of the a. the full cash value thereof This bill
sousi teud 20 esttoish uni'imiy aud stability be-

Air Ross Of 81 J1husaury alluded 20 the second
ton objecionsble providing that the listers shall be
sxorn but doe. not reunire tSem t, certify to the cor
rectness Of the 81 thsF have made The Law
ques real estate 10 hs appraised At the value it would
be t q be of execution. Ihis OIL is rather
letting down aan fastny n the standard OF perform
iny the duties Of the Office of listers Then again it is
sagug OUT the particular Office Of listers and making
d.hsfen rule for them hNn to' the ohsr town ofi ers
Better leave u 20 towns T. elect their listers a. At pres
ent provided and thu place their oonuuanee in office
solely The ground OF co etepoy.
Mr. Marvin thought that other towa ofhoer5-Ieect-
men r nstan ,ht q be cleo ed fJr longer time
ntn one year, and Jhat we ought not 60 obeeto the
pas age VI this ol because it an innovation upon
the established ussges of the tosns under the present
Law far the oath concerned the listers, under
the usages Of the pre,en law, subscribed the oath sh
an Uhs pres mt b would 9briate the diff Guilty.
Mr Ferdn of Montpelier replied 10 the assertion Of Nr
Marvn, that uuder this bill we should hAve more stabi
y in lists aud also, that conscientious nAa could
subscribe the oath under The present usAges Of
listers He thought hat the admission Of paIo eyi-
deuoe to show that the duties the office had been ia tn
fllly executed would not be any relief - tender
science. lie believed we should have property listed
according fixed standard in all the to in tn
STATE aud that failure T. do The duty OF lister fahfsl-
y should cary with the subscribing II the oah the pen
atty of PERJURY lie did not believe thst the enghenng
OF the tenure Of office would lead 20 any mole iaithfh
execution Of the laws The power should return to the
~, a.
hees in the satehat Of judges OF The supreme
II e could not zee that AMI Of the evils Of the old law
would be tene1ed ia this bill
Nj Hub ard Of stickbHdse would be wiling to favor
the TILL If The second section could be so amended as TO
provide for 81 inPent oath ~ listers aud state
pso pen iiy for yiilaton thereof He had often heard
men complain that heir property set IN ths list at
= high rare, when II oh red three times the sum 1t was
listed az they would refuse it. As the bill now stands he
oAnuOt support t.
Mr. Marvin further favored the bill replying to some
Of the objections that had been urged against IT, II the
bill eau be 50 amended II any perfect,
he hoped Il would be re,Omm,ttedi but II not he hoped
the provisions Of this bill will oe saved BY ordering it to
third reading.
NJ, Rounds further opposed the bill and read from the
general statutes the oAhs prescribed ot the listers which
require that piopert shall be appraised at t Saae but
under this bill no such oath is required
Mr. Andrews 4 Berlin saw m zen good in the bill but
though, Il required ndments to make II m lre
= perfect and more acceptable TO the House. He moved
