Editor Collar Chronicle:
noticed an article in yonr Issue of
Nov. 9TH. charging me with assessing
property to parties that they did not
own, and against their protestatioD.
In reply l will say that may have
assessed property to parties that they
did not own, but did not against their
protestations. l did not assess any
property to any person when they
notified me that the same did not be-
long to them. There were several
u3puble assessments in my neighbor-
bod because two parties claimed the
same property. have list, with the
amount of their property, of all the
names of the parties that assessed.
notice by the tax collectors roll book
that some of the parties that assessed
have been raised more than double the
amount that have them assessed with
on my list. l state again that assess
ed no property to any one without his
consent or the authority of the board
OF reviewers. / am always ready t.
make any satisfactory explanation Of
my acts. Yours truly,

A Young lady who has lately come
to Colfax writes us note saying: "If
you have my name inserted in the
columns Of your valuable paper for
publication, please withdraw it, as
am decidedly opposed to newspaper
notoriety from any paper whatever"
Now, the arrival of the young lady
had entirely escaped our observation
until this reminder came to hand, and
nothing would have afforded US more
pleasure than to chronicle the arrival
of such handsome addition to our
community; but, since it is the lassie' e
desire that no names be called, "mum''
is the word.
