EQUALIZATION.
The Commissioners Raise Tax A..
sessments On 4 Hundred
Canon People.

The county commissioners met last
week as a board of equalization.
Canon City was represented by Geo.
r. Shaeffer snd r. s. Lewis.
The object of this meeting was to
equalize the assessments, that Is, to
make every fellow pay according to
his neighbor. The whole thing was
done on a larger scale than ever be-
fore. Careful comparison Of all prop
erty and valuations in town were
made. The result seems to justify
the opinion of many that the princi-
pal object was t. raise the valuations
as much as possible. At any rate
this was done. The procedure seems
to have been thus: Lots on two sec
tions of one street would be COM
pared. If in one part they were
found unjustly high the lots in the
other section were raised in value to
correspond-to equalize you know.
About q hundred raises we're made
and very few cuts. Almost every lot
on Main street, between Fifth and
Eleventh streets and many on Macon
between Fourth and Tenth have been
raised. The hundred people affected
have had their assessment raised
from $25 to 81 1925. The average Of
22 names was struck and showed a
$265 raise for each. In many in
stances small houses and lots were
raised 33s per cent.
The great majority of raises fall
on people of moderate circumstances.
No remarkable changes were made
in valuation of corporations, company
and hotel property.
In the cases of notifications parties
were politely told that the board
would meet on July 18th and 18th to
hear complaints. There will, Of
course, be lots Of kicks, but as they
will undoubtedly all be made individu-
ally and not in any organized system
they will receive but slight attention.

"A man, and more particularly wom-

Slips Of the Tongue.

It Is the invariable rule that MEM
oers Of the house of commons must
address their remarks to the house
through the chair, and, though In the
flow OF argument an orator is often al
lowed without, remonstrance, to use the
second personal plural in admonishing
his opponents, the first words are al
ways addressed to the occupant of the
chair. This, like many other rules Of
debate, has percolated from the house
of commons down to all our minor as
semblies, and the consequence is that
few members find any difficulty in COM
plying with the custom. Not infre-
Quently, however, ruling habits prevail,
and new member involuntarily dis
CLOSES the nature of the assembly to
which he has been accustomed. In a
debate on the Irish land bill in 1894,
Mr.. Kenny, an Irish Q. c., convulsed
the house by addressing Mr.. Speaker

in the same parliament, saluted him as
:" Mr.. Mayor" and an effervescent Irish
