ASSESSOR HAS
A GRIEVANCE
REAL ESTATE METHODS ARE BAD
Property in Many Subdivisions IL 81
Inadequately Described In Deeds
as to Be Almost Lost.

County Assessor Sindall is seeking
the assistance of the county commits
sioners in "a matter of great import
ance to the county at large and to
him as an official. Mr.. Sindall finds
that real estate" subdivisions which
are not of record are constantly COM
ing into existence and that lots"
tracts" or "areas" are being sold I'M
der the briefest kinds of descriptions
He has no way of knowing of the To-
cation of the property, nor of finding
out the improvements thereon. In do
ing his work as an officer he cannot
get at a whole lot of the property
which, in the interests of the people
at large, he should have information
on.
Will Take Legal Action.
Mr.. Sindall on Monday showed to
the county commissioners half a dozen
blue prints of tracts, mostly in the
Selah, known as somebody or others
subdivision and in which lots had
been sold merely as such and by
number, without an adequate descrip-
ton. In fact the nearest he could get
to it was the section, etc. In one in.
sold by a company which did not even
have map of the subdivision. The
buyer, by the way had paid som,
$4,000 for the land and had apparent.
ly taken its location on faith. He
had purchased "lot /" in that specia
sub division without the existence ol
any sort of print to show the boun.
daries of his property or the land OF
which 1T was a part. Mr.. Sindal
thinks there should be some way OF
protecting the county in these mat.
tiers.
Good Suggestion Is Made.
1t was suggested by the commits
sioners that the improvements, in.
creased value and everything else b,
assessed against the section. quarter

and "let the other fellow come bacl
with the kick"
The matter will be taken up with
