commentary is this upon the morals of ou'

the ewes of those growing into maturity Of
both sexes. What terrible reputation is
our county to gain by its going abroad in the
land And more than all, what untold sor-
row is to be entailed upon those thus torn
asunder, of families separated, children be-
coming strangers to their own parents, and
parents more than strangers, where once was

Enter upon the performance of his official duties
for the current year. He would call particular at
tention to the following section of the Revenue
Law:
elf any person shall willfully make, or give,
under oath affirmation, false list of his, or her,
their taxable property, or false list of taxable
property under his, her, their control, such per-
son shall be deemed gnilty of perjury, and upon
conviction thereof, shall be punished therefor, as
is by law provided for the punishment of perjury
and any property willfully concealed, removed,
transferred, or misrepresented by the owner any
agent thereof, to evade taxation, shall upon dis
covery be assessed at ten times the amount of tax
for that year, which would otherwise have been
assessed upon 1t and fifty per cent of the amount
such additional tax, when solicited shall be paid
to the person persons who shall furnish the
information which reveals the property conceal
ed transferred, removed misrepresented, and the
remaining fifty per cent, after deductlng the usual
per centage for collection shall be paid into the
Treasury, for the benefit of the Common School
Fund of the State"
Attention is also directed to the following section
of the Act of 1866, relating to Shasta county:
"The Assessor of said county is authorized and
it is hereby made his duty to collect all the poll
per capita tax except the road poll tax, and the
taxes upon all movable personal property and upon
the entry of any assessment Of movable personal
property, to any person, firm, corporation, associa
ton, or company. who does not own real estate
sufficient in the opinion of the Assessor to insure
the payment of such tax within the county, to de-
mand the payment of the taxes upon the same
and if such person, firm corporation, association,
or company shall refuse or neglect to pay such
taxes, the Assessor shall, by virtue of the power
herein vested in him. proceed to collect such taxes
in the same manner prescribed by law for the Col
lector."
If Tax Payers to have a list of their pro-
perty prepared, ready to be sworn to, as the law
directs, by the time of my reaching them, they
would thereby perhaps save themselves much an
noyance, as well as facilitate my work.
