FAILED TO GIVE NOTICE.
The people Of the lower valley
complain of not receiving notice O
the amount of their taxes, althougt
the time for paying the same is fasl
approaching. County TREASURED
Humber disclaims being at fault
notwithstanding he comes in for thu
blame. The law requiring the treas
urer and tax collector to notify
each individual tax payer Of
the amount of his taxes
Is useless one, and should be re.
pealed. When the Assessor lists the
property every taxpayer knows thu
exact amount for which he has bern
assessed, and subsequently is in.
formed as to the amount of the levy
made by the Board OF Supervisors
Even in the best regulated counties
of California the assessors are often
pushed for time in which to complete
their rolls, ard it l. not strange tha,
those officers in this Territory should
fail at times to meet the exact re.
q.irements+0f the law in this partlcu.
lar. The defects in the revenue la "
making these troubles possible should
Re cured before we utter complaints
against worthy officers.
THE NEW CONSTITUTION.
Since the election, little is heard Of

Bush.
