The assessing and collecting taxes is
done In the same year, and we have to

acres Of land, lots and buildings and
their value that there are In this
country, and have the same on file in
the Comptroller Generals office by the

that time to the first day OF October
the Auditor's and Treasurer's duplicate
have to be completed and an abstract
OF the work In the Comptroller Gen.
erals office by that time, which will
show at q glance that the Auditor has
no time to take returns, or anything
else much, between the ist of October,
but work on the books and the blanks.
We hope, therefore, that all taxpayers
will make their returns in time.
