Assessors Values Advanced Fifty
Per Cent.
The Policy of the Council
Explained.
Taxables or the City 10 be Raised 10
50, 900. GOO.

In order to show that the list which
we published yesterday, was not an
exceptional section of the city, where
excessive and unjust assessments have
been made, we give to-day another
list of owners of real estate in anoth-
or division Of the city-the Eastern
Enlargement-with the assessment of
1859 and that just fixed by the Coun-
oil for taxation in 1870. An inspec-
tion of the Assessors books will show
that the Council have uniformly ad-
yanced the price fixed by the Asses
sors, thus clearly showing that the
work OF the Council was not an
equalization as the law directs, but an
entirely new re-appraisement.
The reason for placing these as
sessments SO unreasonably higher
than the actual values of the lots, is
inexplicable to the owners of the
property, who can conceive Of no valid
pretext for such unprecedented con-
duct on the part Of the tax assessors;
but we can throw some light on the
subject. tits known that the Finance
Committee, with Mr.. Van Ripper at its
head, has had a large amount of city
bonds to be negotiated, and that they
have had much difficulty in disposing
Of them at a fair price. In order to
promote the sale, they prepared and
caused to be printed, for use IN the
Eastern cities, pamphlet giving the
statistics of the city's popula-
ton, wealth and financial condi-
ton. In that pamphlet, upon which
the Water Works and other bonds
were sold, it is set forth under the
signatures Of the city officials and the
Finance Committee that the value of
taxables for 1870. will be TWENTY
FOUR MILLIONS OF DOLLA RS;
when last year it was only siGteeA nal
lions. In order, therefore. to redeem
this solemn pledge and representation,
all the real estate Of the city must be
advanced fifty per cent. To such
straits has the reckless financial man
agement Of the city driven the FL
nance Committee and the Council.
Such representations abroad are of
very questionable business honesty.
But to uphold and make it good, the
people are compelled to bear this I'M
just and outrageous assessment.
It will be borne in mind that the
prices fixed are only the assessed val
ne of lots. 10ithout the improvements.
