man who OWNS the royalty. or the man
who owns the land?
The 5000 income when received by
the owner Of we'll Is the same as any
other money held and Is reported as
cash to the assessor. The assessor
doesn't ask n man where he gets mon
ey. he simply assesses what he has.
The well Is a different proposition al.
together. 1t is assessed on Its value ut
the rate OF 5000 for every 500 income.
The well Is assessed to the owner OF
the royalty, not the owner of the sur

to own both. Gas wells are really as.
