STILL TACKLING TAXES.
ANOTHER DAY SPENT ON THE
FOURTEENTH DISTRICT.
The Board of Equalization Havo Piles OF
Petitions to Act On Yet-A Big Batch
Disposed or Yesterday-A Very Sue
cessful Day.

Tho board Of equalization perspircd and
toilcd over the assessment book of the Four
teenth civil district yesterday.
II Is big bothersome book and is likely
10 engage their attention through today.
The difficulty with this district is, that Il
Is not only the largest in the county, but II
seems that It's numerous property owners
were all seized with the kicking mania at
one and the same time.
There is great deal OF valuable property
In this district and Assessor Smith did
his best to put II at Its true value.
The board are making some considerable
changes, however, both ways, and there will
be some agreeable and disagreeable surprises
TO no few OF It's residents.
There are piles upon piles Of petitions to
be acted on yet, but at tue rate tho board Is
working at they are quite confident that they
will finish up the books by the middle or
latter part OF next week.
II will not be possible TO make an exact
estimate OF how much the revision. or rather
equalization, OF the books will differ from
the figures OF Assessor Smith, but the reduc-
tons will bring his assessment down several
hundred thousand, and probably 81. 0OO, 600.
