County Auditor at Marion Sets
Aside the Action of State
Executive Council
SUPERVISORS INSTRUCTED HIM
He Informs the State Officers That the
County Has Decided That All Farm.
ers' Telephone Lines Are Exempt
From Tax Action-council Orders
the Assessment Made.

Des Moines, March 25.-Uuless all
takes steps in he near future to DEM
onstrate to Auditor II. G. Jackson, of
Linn county and the board of super
visors IF that bailiwick that the state
of Iowa is larger that the county Of
Linn.
Judging from a letter that has been
received by Auditor of State Carroll
from the auditor of Linn county, the
fact is not appreciated in that part of
the state that when the executive
ell makes an assessment on property
it is intended to stand and cannot be
set aside by the county authorities.
This, however, is exactly what the
Linn county authorities have been do
ing.
The fact came to light only bychance.
The annual valuation and tax reports
are now being compiled by j. +. Wall,
evenue clerk in the office of Auditor
Carroll. Recently the report from
Linn county was received. 1t is re-
auired that there be reported among
other things the full amount OF rail-
road property, telegraph n teiephone
property, and express company prop
erty as assessed by the executive coun-
GILL" Under the item of telephone prop
erty. the taxable value was given as
s31,T31. An investigation showed that
the executive council had fixed the tax
- 49, Sy,i,,, pf ta1anhnna nrQnerfy IN
county at $42,041. The report was at
once sent back for correction. n IN re-
sponse there came a letter from the
auditor of the county saying the board
OF supervisors had decided thai al tar
mers' telephone lines should be exempt
ed from assessment, and that this pol
icy had been carried out by the auditor.
1t was also alleged by Auditor Jackson
In his letter that there We're errors in
the assessment as returned by the eX-
ecutive council.
The action of the board of supervisors
and the auditor of Linn county in delib-
erately setting aside an assessment
made by the executive council will I'M
doubtedly lead to a sharp calling down
from the council. The body a do
nothing else than insist on the assess
ment being restored to its former fig
ure. and requiring h assessment of
farmers telephone lines. As there are
about fifty farmers lines in Ill
ty, the item of difference between he
assessment and the non-assessment is
considerable. AS interpreted by he
executive council, there Is no warrant
for exempting farmers telephone nes
from assessment and taxation thai
there is for the exemption of other
forms Of property.
