assessor, De pldCSQ Oh CQ6 TAX llSL
after the assessor has made his re-
turn to the county auditor, Section
1927, supra, provides:
THE county auditor shall carefully
examine the assessment books when
returned to him by the assessor and
if he discovers that the assessment
of any property has been omitted he
shall enter the same upo tnhe proper
list and forthwith notify the assessor
making such omission, who shall inn
|mediately proceed to ascertain the
value of such property and make the
necessary correction"
AS there is no time limit contained
in the foregoing section as to when
the auditor can list property omitted,
it follows that he can list the same at
any time when he obtains knowledge
that such is the fact. There is no
question but that with the present
working force in the auditors office,
he would have little time to devote to
the discovery Of unlisted property.
would therefore suggest that your
honorable body authorize the auditor
to appoint special; deputy whose
business 1t will be to spend his entire
time In making investigations through
out the county for unlisted property.
/ am satisfied that If the right kind Of
a man Is employed the extra expense
entailed will bring most handsome re-
turns. s:s 49, ,.$=* XII

DISPENSING A MOB
Efficacy of Fire Hose or Stout
 Rawhide Whip

GA good stout rawhide whip in the hands of a policeman would be one of the most effective riot breakers l can readily think of," said police in- spector. "There is nothing the average crowd of roughs fear more than a raw hide in the hands of an expert unless, indeed, it is a stream of water from a fire hose. Before the stinging lashes of rawhide there is no crowd which would not cringe and fall away. Then cop does not want to nail one of the little ones in the head with a night stick. A crack of the whip would be less cruel and quite as effective. It is usually the sharp crack of the lash that does the trick, as much so as the sting In Russia, the clout is used with more deadly effect than the rawhide or black snake whip could ever be used. Of course, there is danger of putting out the eyes of someone with the crack CT of the whip, but then, too, there is danger of breaking some heads when the night stick is applied.
 Did you ever see a crack driver from the rural district handle long whipS He has it down so fine that he can flick coin out of your fingers twelve feet away. A policeman could become equally proficient with prac- tice. It would be just the wrinkle in many eases where there is mob to ahndle. A whip and fire hose would make great battery. The fire in many Il rioter has been extinguishod by the cold stream from one of those two-inch nozzles. '-New York Times
