Something Wrong

There seems to be something wrong
with taxation and the sheep question.
For the past six weeks sheep
have been grazing in the county on
the hills in every direction. The
ground that they have gone over is
useless for any further use this year
as the grass has ben eaten to the rotts
Ii, is safe TO say that ten thousand
sheep have beneErted on the grass in
this county and not a cent OF taxa
ton can be collected from the own
ers. There is something wrong in this
condition. If parties owning sheep
can pasture the ground il county
ing taxes the law needs fixing. The
same condition occurs every year, and
when the assessor demands taxes he
is shown receipt from some otheI
counrv and the sheepnlan smiles and
goes his way. Ormsby county is not
very large but if sEeopmen from out
side counties fnd the pasturage good
enough TO brouse thousands of sheer
en-, they should be made to pay fOl
the privilege.
There is 2 law prohibiting sheep
rom grazing within three miles Of a
town It might be good idea 20 en-
