FIRST MoNDAYIN APRIL,

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:
If any person shall willfully make, or give
under oath affirmation. false list of his or her
or their taxable property, a false list of taxable
prepe' ty 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 or 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 and fifty per cent of the amount
OF such additional tax, when solicited shall be paid
to the person persons who shall furnish the
information which reveals the property so conceal
ed transferred. removed or misrepresented and the
remaining fifty per cent, after deductng the usual
per eentage 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 1865 6. relating to Shasta county,
The Assessor of said county is authorized and
it is hereby made his duty to collect all the poll or
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 were 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.
