Beach Haven Taxes.

At the meeting of the Ocean county
freeholders, ON Tuesday, Franklin B.
Lewis, of Mount Holly, appeared for the
borough of Beach Haven, to ask the re-
uniting of $3.50 county tax due the coun-
ty from Beach Haven on 100000 addi-
tional valuation added in lump sum to the
borough assessment by the county board
of assessors in September, 1895. Mr..
Lewis stated that after this sum had been
added to Beach Ravens assessm ent, the
commissioners of appeal of that borough
had RENTED the same, and that the state
board of assessors had visited Beach
Haven and had sustained the original as
sessment. He quoted the case of David
r. McCulluAn, assessor of the borough Of
Chesilhurst, Camden county, vs. the board
of assessors of Camden county, in which
Chief Justice Beasley at the February
term, 1885, of the Supreme court. decid-
ed an exactly similar case by reversing
the act of the county board.
Solicitor Martin reported that in his
opinion if the borough of Beach Haven
refused to pay the county the sum of $3.50
county tax based upon the 500. 900 added
to that borough's assessment by the coun-
ty board of assessors, the county to col
lect it would have to apply to the Supreme
court for writ of mandamus He be-
heyed the action of the board of assess
ors to have been illegal, because while
they had an undoubted right to add to
the valuation of any borough or township
whose duplicate they considered too low
they had not specified how much should
be raised on real and how much on per.
sonal property, as the.law required. but
had added it in lump sum. He thought
the court would surely sustain the bo-
rough.
On motion of Mr.. Kelly, seconded by
Mr.. Birdsall, the $3.50 was RENTED.
