county. From the talk which prevails
among the masses, it would not be in ae-
cordance with the truth to assert that
the dog tax is popular measure. Pro-
verbally, the world over, so far at least
as the Saxon or the Anglo-Saxon race
has extended its sway, blow given to a
mans cog is sure to be resented by the
master. The object of the dog law is
unquestionably praisew0rthy, and the
ultimate effect win be highly beneficial
if the statute is put into such shape as
viii remove the prejudices Of the poorer
class of voters and enlist them in its IA
vor. This might have been done by APP
plying all the proceeds of the dog tax to
the support of public schools in the dis.
trict where it is levied. The poorest
voter, who had children as well as dogs,
would see just where the money paid to
save the life of his 'possum dog went,
and would pay it with little or no grum-
bling if any of his children went to
school. The law taxing dogs ought to
be amended lin some such manner, and
retained upon the statute book. If blat-
ant demagogues attempt to run into the
Legislature upon opposition to the dog
tax, they can be defeated all over East
Tennessee by good men who will pledge
themselves to some such alteration as
that which we have suggested.

Taxation in Hawkins County.

Taxation in Hawkins County.
The subject of taxation is one which
interests every citizen, and the facts and
figures connected thereunto are eagerly
sought after by others than the cOmpil-
ers of statistical tables, and the gather
ers of census returns. How to distribute
the necessary burdens of government, so
that they shall bear as lightly as possible
upon the people, and be equitably dis
tributed among all classes, is one Of the
most difficult problems committed to
statesmen for solution. That perfect
plan has been devised for this purpose,
either by the National Government of
this country or any one of the States, no
man of intelligence. viii pretend to claim.
The tax laws of Tennessee have been
fiuctuating ever since the war, and are
far from being in satisfactory condition
at the present time. The rule by which
property is valued for the purposes of
taxation leaves too much to the discre-
tion of a few men who cannot be expec-
ted to take the steps which are necessary
60 insure the doing Of justice to all par
ties. 1t is asserted, and not without
reason. apparently, that the real estate
Of Hawkins county is, and has been, "a
ted for purposes of taxation about what
is the ruling rate for similar property of
equal value in other sections of East
Tennessee. If this be true, burden is
thrown upon the people of this county

An examination Of the tax list for 1875
gives the following exhibit: Number of
town lots in Hawkins county, 1876; valu-
alton of these, $113, 800. OF these, 2 are
~ Surgoinsville, II at Whitehorn, "a at
st. Clair, and 14S at ROgersyille The
valuation of those at Rogersville is $780,
800. The real estate of the county is
valued at 50, 167, 977, and the personal
property at $173, $50. The valuation of
personal property seems insignificant in
comparison with the realty, but this is
readily accounted for by the operation
of the law e7sempting 81, 600 Of personal
property from taxation, which is made
to cover the bulk of such property in the
eutire State. We find in the tax list an
enumeration of property other than real
and personal amounting in the aggregate
to SO, $50. What constitutes this indefi-
mite and underlined property, we cannot
discover from the record, but lawyer
suggests that he presumes it means " IN

sonal property in Hawkins amounts to

The Sheriffs of Hawkins County.

From the organization of Hawkins
county up to 1860, only twelve men had
served as Sheriff At least we only see
the names of twelve on the records
Thomas Berry held the office in 1892
Joel Gillenwaters in 1877 Alexander
Nelson in 1900; Joseph Park in 1905; Alb
SALON. Looncy in 1907; Gabriel McCrow
in 1917; James P. McCarty in 1925; JAS.
Bradley in 1880; Jacob Miller in 1874;
Henry Tarter in 1850; Harvey Hamilton
in 1852; Elias Bcall in 1854
Bradley, McCarty and McCrow seem
TO have been elected frequently, in fact,
they seem to have held the office between
them from 1917 to 1850
During the war we do not know whe
ther the county had a Sheriff or not; GER
tainly she had very little use for one. At
the close Of the war, when the so-called
peace was made, Mr. Beall was Sheriff
again Then C. NJ Balls run the office
