to assessments came UP and the
county attorney will be kept busy dur
ing the next eight days looking up the
law and rendering opinions.
The question of taxing building and
loan associations came up during the
afternoon session and was referred to
the attorney for consideration. There
is a special law relating to the manner
in which they shall be taxed, but it
seems to be capable of different con-
structions. Attorney Waite, who rep
resents the county attorney at the
board sessions, will insist on every
building and loan association doing
business in the state furnishing the
beard with a. list of the stockholders,
together with the amount due each,
in order that it may be deducted from
the assets OF the association. Further
than that, he proposes 10 have the
clerk notify each stockholder to report
the value of his or her stock, in order
that it may be assessed.
The law taxing mortgages receives
the greatest share of attention by the
board, so many being negligent about
recording releases, and many mort
cages paid have thus been put on the
assessment rolls.
