ATTEMPT TO ASSESS
PERSONAL PROPERTY
OF Non>Residents--Can SltuS
of Property Changed

An important and meritorlous Dill
nassed by the late legislature, was an
amendatory act relating to the assess
,ont and taxation Of personal prop
erty. introduced by Senator ~ d.
Looney, Of this county. The purpose
ond eject of the bill is to render
liable TO city tax, stocks OF goods
merchandise, etc., whetheror not the
owners or corporations handling the
same reside or are established within
the corporate limits Of the city or even
the state. Under the old law Such
personal property was not liable 70 a
citv tax when the owner or owners diu
not reside within the city.
In Salem there are number ol
merchants and business men residing
outside the city's corporate limits, who'
while enioyng.fire and police protection
and other benefits from the municipal
ooverpment, have not been required to
nav a CITY tax on their personal prop
ertv. The passage Of this law will in
crease the revenue Of the capital city
about s25OO per annum. This increased
tax will not be available until next year
AZ Il cannot be collected on 1900 roll
which hes already boen extended.
The amendment was drafted by Cir
cult Judge r. p. Boise, Of this city, and
was carried through the two houses Of
the legislature by Senator N. II. Looney
and Representative Lot i. Pearce, ol
the Marion county delegation.
The law as amended is Section 274z
of the code, relating to personal prop
erty and reads as follows:
"All goods, wares, and merchandise
kept for sale in this state, all stock EN-
ployed in any Of the mechanic acts, and
all capital and machinery employed in
any branch OF manufacturers or other
business within this state, owned by
corporation out of this state, or any
person whether residing in or out OF the
state, shall be taxable in the county
city or municipal corporation where the
same may be, either to the owners Thereof
or TO the person who shall have charg'
of or be in possession of the same"
