NEWS OF
MISSISSIPPI,

The county assessors OF Missls-
4 s;ppi are now completing their
work on the personality rolls for
/ tia taxes of 1901, and will submit
lbc new assessment books to the
boards Of supervisors at the July
meetings.
No great amount of interest is
attached to the assessment this

snd the personally rolls form only
about thirty percent of the whole.

of last year when an increase of

Twas made.
Il 1t is feared. in fact, that many
af the counties which made such
eycellcnt showings on assessments
lsst year will either fail to show
Spny increase whatever this year or
show an actual decrease in value.
Elt has developed since the last as
hessment that there was a consid-
erable amount of ovcr-zealous-
mess on the part of assessors, and
values were inflated in quite q
number of counties. The increase
which caused such favorable COM
