Erroneous Taxation.

Any one at all familiar with the
routine work of the county commission
ers and Of the city council knows that
a vast amount of time of the members
is taken up in Strengthening out err
roneous tax sales and complications to
titles growing out of erroneous assess
ments The casual reader of the pub
lished reports of the proceedings OF
these bodies gets only an inkling of the
work done, as usually the reports omit
the many detailed cases and say nu-
merous tax matters were attended
te." or otherwise abbreviate convent
emily. But IN very many cases long
and eXacting labor is required on the
part of commissioners or councilman
in order that they may become familiar
with the titles to pieces of property
and matters bearing thereon. The work
is necessary, under the present con-
ditions, but something is wrong or has
been wrong, else those conditions
would not exist. Somewhere radical
defects have existed, either in the plats
from which assessments are made or
in the method of assessing and col
lecting taxes.
The way things are now, each mem
Der of a tax committee should be an
abstractor and should be situated so
as to give his whole time to the bust
ness. If Expert Bateman, now engaged
in looking over the books of the county
shall discover the cause of the nuner-
Gus errors of the class referred to and
shall point out a way to check them,
his employment will have proved a
paving thing for the county.
