Tax Equalization

Senator w. w. Sale, Of Norfolk, is at
work on a bill which he is to present
during the session ofthe general assembly
and which has for its object the cre1tion
of board ol tax equalization.
Senator sale says that perusal OF the
report of the auditor Of public accounts
will disclose the demand for such a
measure. He illustrates the need for The
law by referring to the valuation placed
on sheep in some of the counties. With
out indicating what county, and per-
haps not giving the exact figures, he
saws that in some instances sheep are
valued at 81 a head, and in acoanly IN
The same general section, equally as
noted for its lamb and mutton, the value
is 81. 30 head.
Again, the Senator takes up the sub
iect of land valuations. Instances are
on record 10 which lands have been
taxed at So an acre and which have been
sold in less than a year following at $40
to $50. He inclines To the opinion that
these things should be remedied and a
fur valuation given on all sorts oil
property.
