Clarke courier. [volume] (Berryville, Va.) 1869-1997, 1910-02-09

A. b. Wyndham 5000
The COURIER has several times
taken occasion to say that some of
our merchants and others have not
been making full returns of their
purchases-whether by accident or
otherwise remains to be seen-and
we feel sure the above figures
amply bear out our statements.
The only correct way in which
the returns can be made is to keep
a list of the purchases made from
year to year. When the the tax
assessor comes around, the list can
be added up in few moments and
the correct figures given. We
have an idea that many merchants
fail to keep such list, and only
give in their purchase by guess
work." and that, now the list is
published, they will turn in state
ments which will, in many instances
more thsn double the former
figures.
A partial statement of the Boyce
merchants is as follows:
p. T. Grim $500
X. G. Green & Co. $500
j. w. Keeler 1900
Simpson Brothers $500
X. II. Ritter 5000
Burch 4 Willingham $500
The above figures would indicate
that one firm at Boyce does a
greater business then the largest
establishments in Berryville-but
we feel sure anyone will know
that this cannot be true as matter
of fact.
The Town Council has been
slow to take any drastic action in
the matter, but has given the above
figures to the COURIER in the hope
that nothing further will be needed
to bring the merchants to a correct
appreciation af the case.
In conversation with the CoU-
RIER man yesterday, a member OF
the Council, when asked what
would be done if the CoURIER's
publication failed to produce re,
suits, said, THE law is very plair
on the subject. Our only recourse
will be q report to the next Crane
jury after the tax assessments o.
this Spring. The penalties pro
vided for false tax returns is very
severe, but of course the Council
would have nothing to say abou
the penalty, the State law coverins
every phase of it. You will als'
remember that the returns mad,
by the merchants are made unde
oath-the merchant swearing tina
the figures given are correct"
The COURIER realizes that tn
. indictment of any merchant in ou
town on q charge of swearin,
falsely to tax returns would be
serious matter, and might result i
