payers association was presented protest
ing against the action OF the board of ap-

OF appraisement before the property Is
rendered by the owners and later sitting as
a board OF equalization in Judgment on the
same.
An opinion OF the city attorney was read
sustaining the view on the taxpayers on
that point.
