A JUST CLAM.-We understand that num-
Der Of persons, in making their returns for state
taxes, have included theamonnt of shares Of stock
held by them in public companies which themselves
ore taxed upon their whole capital. The state Is
not entitled to tax the same property tw1ce, and as
the returns were made under o misapprehension Of
the law c.used by is prolixity and ambiguity, the
persons assessed should be allowed to withdraw
their returns and substitute correct ones in their
stead. This is just claim, and we presume
that the County Assessor will make no difficulty
about it.
