THE STORY
IS FALSE

On most reliable authority and for
the sole purpose of injuring the can
didacy of NJ. NJ. Shores for reelection
as county treasurer. some Republic
cans are quietly circulating story
that is as false as il is dirty.
The story has been repeated to a
number of people whom it was hoped
to influence. to the effect that Treas
urcr Shores made Il treasurer's ASSESS
ment of the property. lots II to IL,
block 132, Grand Junction, owned by
st. Mary's Academy and adjoining
st. Mary's hospital, and he had UNDER
taken to force collection of taxes al
though the property had been free
from assessment i'm the past.
The true facts are these. The
property was assessed for taxation by
County Assessor n. n. Smith, or one
of his deputies and was reported in
the usual manner on the books.
County Treasurer shores, when il
came time to sell property for delin-
quent taxes wrote the words. "Don't
SELL opposite this property that had
been assessed by the assessor. The
Sisters were then notifieu and they
went before the county commissioners
and had the assessment abated and
the taxes were not collected. NJ. NJ.
shores had nothing to do with the
assessment and made no effort to col
lect the taxes.
