Real Property is not returned this
year..
1t will save much time to taxpayers,
and also greatly facilitate the work Of
the Assessor, if every person, before
leaving home, viii, make out a complete
list Of every item OF personal property,
in the following order: Horses, cattle,
mules, sheep and goats, hogs, watches,
organ and pianos, buggies, wagons and
carriages, dogs, merchandise, machinery
and engines, moneys, notes and accounts
above Indebtedness. All other property
including household.
1t is always required that the Auditor
get the first given name Of the taxpayer
in full.
Under the head of place Of residence
on tax return give the township.
All male citizens, between the ages of
twenty-one and fifty years, on the LIST
day of January. 1895, except those who
are incapable of earning q support from
being MANNED or from other causes, are
deemed taxable polls.
And every taxpayer is required to give
| the number of their School district.
After the Goth day of February next
fifty per cent. penalty will be attached
for failures to make returns.
In every community there are persons
who cannot read, or that do not take a
newspaper. Those more fortunate may
do such persons a great favor by telling
them of the time to make returns, or by
returning for them.
The assessing and collecting taxes is
all done now in the same year, and we
have to aggregate the number and value
of all horses, mules, cattle and other
pieces of personality, rs we'll as the acres
of land, lots and buildings, and theil
value, that there is in the County, anC
and have the same on file in the Comp
troller Generals Office by the 30th day
of June Of each year; and from that time
to the 1st day of October the Auditor
and Treasurer's duplicate have to be
completed, and an abstract OF the worl
in the Comptroller's Office by that time
which will show at q glance, that the
Auditor has no time to take returns OF
anything else much between the LIST day
of March and the LIST day of October bu
work on the books and the blanks.
We hope, therefore, that all Taxpayers
will make their returns in time.
o. G. THOMPSON,
Auditor.
