STATS or INDIANA. DUBOIS CouHrY, IS
II The Dubois Clrcuit Court. ssptembe
The advocate., 1891-01-21

In one place, "each parcel Of real proper
ty shall be valued at los true value in
money. Personal property shall be
valued at Its true value in money at the
place where the same may be held, " and
in another place, assessors shall meet
II y and then agree upon an equal
basis Of valuation ofsuch property as they
may be called upon to assess." Hence
this wide variation ranging from 25 per
cent. to 669S per cent. Of real value.
The state constitution also says: "So
that all property employed In banking
shall always bear burden Of taxation
equal TO that imposed upon the property
Of individuals"
The average rate Of taxation, as given
In auditors report for '56, page 931, Is
1888 on each one hundred dollars in
valuation, and II Is believed that in the
cities the average is near e5 on 800
valuation. So IL Is easy to estimate the
clear saving to the individual or bank
that Is able to shrink a fair assessment
and also to see what a temptation Ia set
for them to try aud dodge their last as
sessment.
This table shows how much advantage
Is taken Of the constitution in some
counties and what injustice Is done to
those who do not shlrk. II will also
show that some banks are paying their
full share, as In Lyon county, and that
others, as In Saline county, esoape almost
entirely. In one case assessed at 60 per
cent, of stock and surplus, and in the
other at u per cent. Of stock and sur
plus.
II is no wonder the taxpayers Of this
The advocate., 1891-01-21

Last fall the following question was
sent TO the county clerks Of all the old
counties Of the state: "What Is your rate
OF assessment, or per cent. listing valuep
And In counties having national banks,
"What is the assessed value Of --
National Bank?"
Answers we're received from seventy
one C71) counties though some OF them
were not clear) forty-one Of which are
compiled In the table; and the rate given
for twenty others. The rate OF assess
ment as given was sent by the county
clerk, generally qualified by "about," ex-
cept for Saline and Shawnee, which were
taken from proceedings Of board Of asses
Ors, also the assessed values Of banks
were sent by county clerks. The paid
up capital stock and surplus were taken
from the fifth biennial agricultural re-
port for 'S5 and 'S0, being one year ear
ller than the date OF given assessment;
but 1t is believed does no injustice to the
banks, as their stock Tor 'S7 was in nearly
every instance the same and their sur
plus and undivided profits much greater.
But one bank ls given for a county, as
the other national banks were assessed
az about the same rate.
The object Of the question being, first,
70 SEQ how near equal the rate Of assess
ment by counties, and second, to see how
moneyed capital (nstional banks being q
fair Ramplo) was assessed as compared to
ordinary personal property.
The state constitution says: 1.-THE
Legislature shall provide for q uniform
and equal rate Of assessment and taxa.
