That the tax commission, having
az its object the correction Of the
evils of the present State tax system
has good reason for being shown
by the annual report OF the audi Or
of public accounts. which proves that

from the State treasury then they paid
in last Year. The aggregate amount
these counties most OF them Repub-
Ncan, drew from the treasury in ex-
cess Of their contributions was slO4,-

Glaring inequalities OF taxation ar.
shown by the report in the valuation
OF horses In different sections of the
state. the assessment being as low as
S99 In seRe-dHarters and as high az
S101 in Richmond. From a glance
at the assessment totals it would ap-
pear that about half the belongings
OF the citizens of the State Is listed
and assessed at about one-tenth its
real value.
