ASSESSING TAXES.

EpiToR IrTRLLICEsCEB: -As the time ia near

Is a usually allowed province OF the taxpayer
TO suggest reforms for the consideration OF the
people. as we'll a. the legislature, ! desire 8 small
space in the Intelligence TO present some views
on the time. ~ wei! as on the manner OF ASSESS
Ing the property OF the state aud county.
The general opinion, it seems. all over the
state is that We have an able and A working
Legislature, and one that can appreciate and
discern the needs as we'll as the difficulties,
under which our people labor, and Will faith
fully strive 10 Tighten the burdens along our
pathway, aud not spend thousands OF dollars in
discussing dog laws, school laws. swindles,

As money is the sinew or peace as well as oil

enlis; our profoundsst reflections Oh the matter
Of raising a sufficient amount for state and
county purposes, and AZ the game tine do no
injustice to the taxpayer.
Tine time from which the assessments are
made, .August LEI. and the time for collecting
that tax. fifteen months afe,ward. opens . gap
for = loss Of twenty per ceut. Of the revenue.
"a II Is known TO every person In our county
that March LIST is the time tas the location Of
renters and transient settlers. In August they
are assessed. and make q crop. and as a general
rule remove from the county during the winter
or spring. s"veu months before their taxes srs
duo. and thereby avoid paying any taxes NJ all.
Why the assessment time was changed from
February 10 August, Is hard TO tell. but certainly
the chan sc caused n loss of fnseu TO twenty per
cent OF revenue. as many renters often have
large herds OF cattle and various kinds OF stock
and other effects
Now. to avoid these yearly losses AMI TO OBJ
viste the deficiency. lei me suggest that the
assessment be made from April LIST IN each year.
and the tax book can be completed and handed
TO the collector by September LIST. As the Gus
tom now 10. TO put r deputy assessor IN each
township. the whole machinery will be wound
up in the year. and nearly every person who is
