The section Of the city charter that
creates this board was never intended
to authorize such an abuse of power
as exercised by Alderman Lockwood
The main object was to create board
of appeal to which the aggrieved
tax payer might appeal from
the assessment made by the
city assessor: The section confers the
power of correction upon this board in
unmistakable terms as follows: They
shall hear and determine all such APP
peals in q summary manner, correct
errors, appraise all property as I'M
known, and increase or diminish any
assessment as they may see aft"
This was the way the section read be-
fore the amendment Of April 5th, 1889,
when to the later portion Of the Sec
ton was this proviso: provided,
that no assessment shall be increased
unless the owner OF such property has
been notified before such board and
given an opportunity to make his OBJ
jections to such increase" etc.

This so-called board of equalization
and revision took the rolls OF the
assessor, IAN experienced, painstak-
ing, cOnscien tious officer and in the
most ar bitrary manner raised the as
sessments OF tax payers so as to in
crease the city assessment millions of
dollars This was done to increase
the revenue of the city without in
creasing the rate of taxation.

the city has no use for
