an ASSESSOR INrnRrRErs 1aE LAW.

EDITOR CENsoR.--I desire to define
my position taken in the work of assess.
ing the town of Sterling, under the
mortgage tax law. In the first place,
the law is very explicit ON the point
that land mortgages, land contracts, in
fact all liens on land for securing debts
are no more classed as personal property
and can under no condition be listed for
taxation under the head of personal
property. la the second place, the law
is equally plain in chasing these securi.
ties as q tenure in the land, that Is the
mortgagor and MORTGAGE are joint own
ers in the land for the purpose of taxa
/ ton, each holding an interest equal to
/ the value fixed by the assessor under q
separate assessment Holding this posi-.
/ ton to be correct, the mere absence OF
/ the name of the actual mortgage on
! the roll will not impair the validity OF
tins assessment, providing the work
otherwise is properly done in equity
and fairness. The person holding the
| interest at the time the tax ia due and
collectable viii be the payer of the tax,
directly or otherwise. 1t Is also inferr'
+ ed that the treasurer will not be able tc
collect these taxes and in consequence
{ payment will go by default unless thu
name of the actual mortgage is handed
down to him on the tax roll This con.
clusion is erroneous and not oosooe out
by law inasmueh as it is not incumbent
upon tax collectors to trace up uoIy-resi
dent mortgages for the collecting OF
taxes, no more than ii they were actual
owners of the land in fee simple. In ali
PROBABILITY the mortgagor will pay the
easew mr.
receipt for the amount paid on tint
mortgages share Of the tax on The
land This receipt will entitle the hold
or 10 an offset against the mortgage
debt
Mortgages held by banks and insur-
ance companies are exempt from taxa.
ton, presumably on the ground that
banks pay taxes on their capital stock,
and Insurance companies pay license for
doing business in the state. Ii does not,
however. follow that the same securi-
ties permanently remain with them
they may be transferred by assignment
to individuals and become taxable
Conditions may be equally reversed by
individuals transferring mortgages t.
banks, etc. Under these changeable
conditions, at the option of the mort
gagor, that Ia If he desires separate as
sessment Of both interest
All mortgages should be listed for
taxation unless the officer had positive
knowledge OF the mortgage affecting
the land being exempt. No one would
suffer injury in case an enlistment
should fail on q mortgage exempt from
taxation. On the other hand, no mort
gage interests subject for taxation could
possibly escape paying it's Just share of
tax, G. G. OLSON.

The report of Insurance Commission
sc Host, so far as ii refers to life, surety,
c ausalty, assessment, accident, and fra
tsrnal insurance, has been !ssned for the
year ending July 81. 1908. and shows 1876
companies, associations, and organi1a-
tons licensed TO do business in the state,
O which 80 are life insurance companies,
81 fraternal beneficiary societies 20 stock
cAsualty companies, 10 are suretyship
corporations, and II assessment accident
associations. CJThere also are two assess
nent life associations and one each OF
the stipulated premium life and mutual
causalty companies. The total of prem
INN receipts of thsee companies in Wis
consin for 1909 was $40, sos. $50, 81, and
the claims paid aggregate 81, ssS. 800 81
This showing would indicate that these
associations are not losing very heavily
in Wisconsin. 1t was only two years
ago that the corporation press and their
hangers-on made a big hellabaloo that
the legislature would drive these COM
panies out of the state because IT ma
terially increased their II xes.

WONDERFUL WORK.

Yeung Milwaukee soclety Woman.

Astoria people are surprised at the
work being done by THE Little Con
querer... Public expression on the sub
ject brings the matter frequently be-
fore the people. At first there were
many doubters and why not? So many
claims OF a similar nature have been
made with little or no hacking, except
ing the word of some stranger residing
in far-away place; this evidence was
accepted for lack OF better. Not neces-
sary to accept it any longer. All suf-
ferers from any kidney III can find pl-
enty of local endorsement for REM
edy that win cure them. Surely the
wonderful work Of Doan's kidney pills
right here at home Is proof sufficient
to satisfy any skeptic. Read the ex-
