At the meeting of the county

At the meeting of the county
assessors of the state, held in
Denver last week, the assessors
were advised by the state board
of equalization that they must
list property of every descrip-
tion for taxation, and must as
sess it at it's full cash value.
They were further advised that
every property owner must be
required by the assessor to
make oath as to the correctness
of the schedules made by him.
A great many people are inclined
to dodge the payment of their
taxes and the assessors are re-
quired by statute to prevent this
if possible.
