Meeting of County Treasurers

DOES NOT DRIVE OUT CAPITAL
Animated Discussion Held in Which
Statistics Are Produced Showing
Good Results Of Tax Ferret Law
Munow Of Polk, Explains Officers
Opposition to the system.
Special to Times Republican.

SpeciaI 10 IlmeS-Repupucan.
Dubuque Aug. 1S-The county treas
urers in their annual meeting in this
city have taken favorably to. the tax
ferret law and their sentiment was ex-
pressed in the discussion that follow
ed the reading of the paper by j. w.
Vest of Montezuma, Poweshiek coun-
ty.
The paper on the tax ferret law was
the most anxiously anticipated of the
gathering. In his defense of the law
MIR. Vest spoke very highly of the good
1t has done to the county and the tax
payers. The opposition took the stand
that the law drives capital from the
county, meaning Of course, that many
persons quit the vicinity in order to
avoid the ferreting out OF their deiln-
quent taxes. The affirmative then
came back at the negative and declared
that honest property owners would not
move from the neighborhood, because
they favor the equalization of the bur-
den of taxes. Mr.. Vest continued his
remarks and took up the contention OF
the opposition that the tax ferret law
does harm to community. He pro-
duced statistics to show that In the hve
years that ferrets have been employed
in his county, he has learned OF only
one man who has left the county. he
took copies of the amounts on the
books of Isoweshiek county
and made stronger his declaration. IN
1899 the amount of taxable property on
their books amounted to $l.4l4,sSs; IN
1904. to $2.443.17s. The difference be-
tween the two years was $l,22s.so,
which was due in part to the increase
Of wealth, but chiefly to the work OF the
ferrets.
Other men who spoke in support OF
the system were l. G. Wilson, OF Mon
roe, Munow, of Polk, and Cahail. OF
Guthrie.
Mr.. Munow proved himself the wit OF
the gathering When the opposition
was called for, he replied. 1.-The law Is
