The Tax Rate in Jackson.

County clerk Huberty has complet-
ed carrying out The taxes on the
assessment roll of township one, or
rather of the city of Jackson, show
ing the amount of taxes assessed
against each individual property
holder In regard to the special
bridge tax of 1872 cents on the 500,
he informs us that he has not includ-
ed that levy in the city assessment
roll. AS the Ledger has heretofore
contended the property holders with
in the Incorporated limits of Jackson
will not be liable for either the
county road tax of IS cents, nor the
bridge tax of 1917 cents, making 521a
cents in all. The state and county
rate, therefore, that will be collected
by the county tax collector from tax
payers in this city will be s1.471s on
each 500. The city rate is 10 cents,
so that the total within the incorpor-
ated limits, including city taxes, will
be 81. Tx or liz cents more than
the rest of the county will be called
upon to contribute. This is getting
off fairly we'll. Of course, it is the
special bridge tax that comes to the
rescue of the city property owners.
1t is an exceptional year. Having tc
rebuild so many bridges, makes il
hard on the general taxpayers, leav.
ing those within the incorporated
city untouched by the bridge disasters
of last winter.
