STATE BOARD OF EQUALIZATION The
State Board of EQUALIZATION, some DAYS
since wrote the Boards of Supervisors of a
e. number of counties throughout the
State that they had examined the assess
menrs upon the assessment rolls and pro-
posed to increase the entire assessment
of the county, for the purpose of making
the assessments conform TO the true value
in money, of all the property. This, they
say, will be necessary, so as to equaliZe the
value OF the taxable property of the sew
eral counties in the State for the purpose of
uniform taxation. They set date upon
which they would consider all objections
T,-f,i oh no 10 of
their Office in the State Capitol \ delega-
ton from Solano, and also one from Ne
yada county, were present yesterday. They
claim that their property Is assessed i'll aC-
Cordauce with law, and should not be in
creased. In speaking of this matter the
Woodland Democrat says " The time ap-
pointed by the State Board of Equalization
TO hear objections from the Board of Super
viSorS and other citizens of Yolo county to
the proposed raise of the assessment roll
has been postponed from Wednesday, the
9th. to Friday, the 10Th. The matter here
proposed by the State Board is subject of
vital importance to every property-holder
of the county, and we trust many citizens
besides those gentlemen composing the
Board Of Supervisors will 90 to Sacramento
on Friday next and render what support
they can to our local Board, who hold to
the belief that the assessment values are
high enough already.
