Making the aggregate amount of taxes col
lected within this city during the last year.
for the support of the State and Municipal
Government, the sum of So ,0403 % in which
amount is not included the United States In
ternal Revenue Tax collected here within the
same year, which reaches, as am informed by
COL Scott the sun of 500 900
While we must be fully determined to not
incur any unnecessary expenditure, and to
frown down and foil any attempt made by any
person to overreach the city on account of any
claim against the same, it is also our duty to
provide sufficient revenue for all necessary and
legitimate purposes, by tair, proportonate,
and EQUAL taxaIlou OF all citizens aud business.
+ By the existing laws all real property in this
State must be valued biennially, for the pur-
pose of assessment and taxation. The last
valuation was made in 1865 consequently
rev valuation must be made this year. Much
care and judgement, and strict compliance
with The law, are necessary in performing the
duties appeTtainng to this branch of the pub
lie service, aud hope that the present assessor
in entering upon the discharge of his duties,
will see to it, that all property is proportionate-
lv assessed according to its real market value !;
for it is fact rot to be denied that formerly IN
great many instances, some of the most valu-
able property was assessed at only about one
tenth or eight of its real value, whereas,
properly ranging in market value from $3O0 TO
81 600 was generally assessed at one half of Its
value, thereby imposing an unjust burden upon
those of our citizen who are least able to bear It,
From the foregoing statement, you will per-
csive that the amount of license money paid by
showmen. minstrels, &C., did not exceed the
paltry sum of $l74 during the year. have,
