1t is pointed out here that while the
state officials are prevented from GER
tifying the assessment to the county
officials, there is nothing in the way OF
the county officials placing the assess
ment on their hoods without such certi-
fication, or rather that it is the duty
of the county auditors upon finding
property in their respective counties
not assessed, TO place it on the books
for taxation, and that this must be
done whether the said county auditors
have oAfcial information from the state
officials or not It is believed there
that the injunction suit will be dis
missed whenever it comes to trial, but
in the meantime state officials are
watching to see whether county officials
will do their duty.
The political contests in regard to

kind. The Hardin county situation is
not likely to get before the board.
