STATE TAX COMMISSION
MEETS HERE TOMORROW

The BOARD of state tax commission
ers will hold a meeting at the Han
cock city hall tomorrow for the pur-
nose of reviewing the assessment
rolls of the several wards. The cause
of the meeting is the alleged failure,
reported some time ago. of the super
visors OF the city 10 discuss mort
gages, II being claimed that there are
about $4,000 worth that should be
ON the rolls but are not. The matter
of these mortgages has caused con-
siderable discussion since the first
statement was published from Lam
sing that there were many unassesscd
mortgages i'm Hancock and the sub
iect will he gone into most thorough
w A list of mortgages obtained by
the state board from registers of deeds
and other sources is usually forward
ed TO the boards of review each year
for the guidance of the latter I'm pre-
paring their rolls. Little use was
made of these lists, and the mortgag-
ga i'm many instances were reported
as having Deen cdncelleu vi ulsChdTb-
ed and therefore no longer liable to
assessment. The board wrote letters
10 the supervisors calling attention e
the alleged failure to assess and the
present visit is the outcome of tn
correspondence and investigation in
stituted by the board of state taS
commissioners. According to the re
mort of the tax commissioners 70
1908 nearly $5O.OOO.OOO of mortgage
were assessed by the state, and Will
many are of the opinion that mort
cages should not be taxed, the Law
is explicit and the commission can bu
follow its provisions. 1t is not ex
pected however that the commission
win unearth any serious discrepan
cies in Hancock, when the condition
are investigated and understood an
only very small portion of tina
100000 win be found coming to tn
state.

In Time To Prevent Damage.

An attempt is reported to have been
made several nights ago to set on fire
a fence and lumber pile dividing the
properties of two residents OF vivian
street. in East Hancock, but the blaze
was discovered in time to prevent 1t
doing any serious damage
The discovery was made by two
residents of the vicinity who happened
to be returning home late "Wednesday
night and they at once set to work

ing on the fence and just at the edge
Of the pile of boards situated fifteen
or eighteen feet from the nearest
houses. An examination disclosed that
the fire had been started Intentionally
some chips and paper having been
piled on the fence to start It, and haV-
ing not been consumed. were plainly
evident when the investigation was
made. The wood being wet from the
rain of the day previous IL burneu
slowly so that no great amount oi
damage was done before the fire was
discovered. A Waterman was placed

vIcksburg May Get Encamp-
ment.

Jackson, Miss, July 23.-
Vicksburg may get the next en-
campment of United States and
state troops. The Vicksburg
Board of Trade took the matter
up some time ago and it is be-
lieved if the matter is given the
proper impetus the Mound City
will be selected for the next en-
campment in which the Missis-
sippi troops will camp with the
regulars.
This would mean 10, 600 troops
in camp at Vicksburg, and May
or Hayes, it is said, is working
along this line good and strong.
Secretary of War Dickinson in
timated some time ago that such
a move was possible. 1t is known
that the war department does
not like Chickamauga any too
well, but the encampment was
held there this year because of
the lack of a better place.
The water at Chickamauga is
anything but good. 1t is all pol
luted, according to the war de-
partment, and if Vicksburg can
show a supply of pure water for
10, men that city may get this
big plum.
The latter is, in their opinion,
far superior to anything in Geor-
gia for an encampment, and
since Secretary Dickinson is
known to look upon this matter
with favor, it is believed that
Vicksburg, with a good supply of
pure water, win be able to land
the encampment.
