A CARD.

in justice to myself, ] would say to my
fellow citizens of this County, that in their
complaints against the County Board of
Equalization" for the increase of the valua-
ton Of their property for taxation for the
year 1870, they should remember, thatit was
the old board of Equalization that raised the
Assessments. 1t was done before | had
been commissioned err taken my seat as
County Commissioner Against me, there
fore, these complaints should not be directed.
1t is just that the maxim of Holy Writ
Render unto Cesar the things that be
C@sar's" should BIO applied to me, aud that
should not be censured by this community
for that, with which / had nothing to do.
