The headlines Of newspaper invariably indi-
cate its political and economic predictions. A

onstrste the correctness OF this assertion. The
headlines in The Post are true and open indi-
cation of its loyal partisanship patriotism and
sympathy for the toilers. There IS no equivoca-
ton or evasion in any instance, no sailing under
false colors nor insidious subverson OF theories

"A Word to the Township Boards
of Assessors.

Mr.. Editor: Auditor Cook
having called the various town
ship boards of assessors to meet
at their respective places of meet
ing March 3, 1908, for the pur
pose of convassng each and every
return of personal property in
their townships, |, as a member
OF one of the township boards,
knowing the inequality of Il great
many returns made by our people,
great disadvantage the various
boards are under for lack Of in
formation to act correctly on the
returns as they come before them,
would suggest that every member
OF the various boards gather all
the information possible as to the
conditions and amount of all per
sonal property in their respective
townships.
under the present law the mem
bers of each beard of township
assessors are entitled to So. per
day for their services and allowed
three days in which to do their
WORK except Gills Greek towns
ship, and that township, is allow
ed five days in which to do its
work. Each board should make
thorough canvass of each re-
turn, and in canvassing the re-
turns should they find any which
they think are not properly made
and for lack OF information thew
cannot make the proper correc-
lions at once they should lay all
such aside until they have obtain
ci tho necessary information. 1t
Is very important TO equalize as
near as possible every return that
comes before them that each
board should have all the infor-
nation necessary 20 this end, and
they should obtain it if it takes
them the entire tin c allowed bv
law TO do the work in.
