to find that the board had met Mon.

ing at which the Governor, Controll-
or. Commissioner Clark, the assessor.
Acting District Attorney Patterson,
the clerk and auditor we're present.
Tho Governor called for the original
list returned by certain Taxpayers in
the county. and claimed they had not
given IN all their personal property.
AS a majority or the board was not
present, nothing could lie done. At
the request of the Gov
ernor and Controller, Commissioner
Clark called meeting of the board
for next Saturday when these officials
will be present and discuss matters.
While the Governor and Controller
have no power to raise assessments.
they have the power to see that no
property in the State excapes taxa
ton. This gives them the right to
object to assessments where all the
property owned by the taxpayer has
not been returned to the assessor.
The object OF the board in meeting
with the boards of equalization is to
collect data upon which to make
report to the next legislature, to be
used by that body in creating State
board OF equalization, with power to
remedy the evils existing in the pres,
'ent methods Of assessing property IN
this State.
