What I regard as anunparalled
outrage is that buildings should
be assessed at two or three times
their original cost. In the most
tyrannica1 countries in the world
such outrages by city officials
would not be tolerated, but here
in Fitzgerald they are perpetrat-

for three years. When you
make a complaint about it you
are ordered out of the house or

P.S.-Mr. Tibbott' statement
that property must be valued
high enough without regard TO
its real value to raise the tax
necessary to cover the appropri-
atoms" l find, on second consid-
Grafton, to be untena BILE after all.
It would not stand a legal test.
No assessments aboye actual
value would be sustained in court
anywhere. Appropriations must
be made to conform to just as
sessm ents, not the assessments
to the appropriations. He is
placing the cart before the horse.
All taxes are based upon actual
values, that is, what the proper
ty would bring at forced sale.
Last year showed how much
money had to be raised, and as
this year only 100000 more was
required which was paid by the
two additional saloons, it is evil
dent that our taxes should have
been considerably lower on &C
count of the receipts from the
new improvements.
If anyone can't see this with

ton he is impervious to convic-
ton. Convince a man against
