WANSER'S AXEMEN.
The Tax Commissioners After Them
With Big Clubs.

The Tax Commissioners have crossed
weapons with Mayor Wanser's tax assess
ment axemen. The Assessors do not III
tend to shoulder any of the difficulties
emanating from the unscrupulous and
wholesale slaughter of assessments. In
which unjust Determinations have been
made for the purpose of making political
capital. The reductions made by Mayor
Wanser's axemen have all been published
and the revenue deprived the city by
these officials is something enormous.
At the last meeting of the Board of Ap-
peals the members had the unmitigated
nerve to raise the personal val uations of
Owen Mcguire and County Collector
Hugh Dugan. and then ask the Tax Com
missioners to notify the City
Collector OF the increase. In
cases where reductions were
ordered Wanser's men merely sent vouch-
ers to City Collector O'Neill, notifying
him that reductions had been made.
But, as soon as an increase Is ordered
these gentlemen endeavor to Shirk all re-
sponsibility for the action by asking the
Tax Commissioners to notify the City
Collector of the increase.
This the Commissioners refused to do
at meeting held Saturday morning. and
referred the matter to the Corporation
Counsel for his opinion. The Tax Com
missioners maintain that if they have
nothing to do with reductions they have
no bHslness to bother with increases.
The Commissioners next took up Mayor
Wanser'e veto of the claims for a new
surrey, harness. ETC., and without any
hesitancy passed them over the veto.
The Commissioners think they know
their needs better than His Honor. Com
missioner Clark was excused from voting.
The estimate of money required for the
ensuing year shows the following
