Dear Sir -
Az there has been great deal OK
comment pro and con concerning the
approval OF the bonds presented by the
liouor dealers in Hemstits Township,
beg leave to use your columns to
show the position taken by the Town
ship Board in accepting these bonds.
As is known q petition had been cir
culated and signed by about 100 quail
fed electors of the Township. This
petition requested the Board not to nc
cept the Michigan Surety Company
as surety upon the bonds of any person
proposing to engage in the sale OF in
toxicating liquor in Hematite Town
ship. When this petition was present
cd TO the board resolution was passed
whereby said board refused to accept
said. Michigan Surety Company al
surety upon said bonds.
Later when the Board was called &c
a special meeting TO act upon th'
liauor dealers bonds filed with thu
Township Clerk, it was found that al
of the bonds presented were signed by
the Michigan Bonding and Surety
Company as surety. Our TOWNSHIP
Attorney advised us that the Michigan
Bonding and Surety Company was tn
only concern that could legally be
surety for a liquor dealer ana that con

are reached results in far mare equit-
able distribution OF the burdens OF tax
ation.
As a means Of this end. every as
sessing officer should personally exam
inc every description OF property in his
district in order that the action taken
may be based upon actual knowledge
OF the property and It's conditions.
THAT the proportion OF the assessed
valuation OF personal property to real
estate In this state is too small is gen
orally conceded; therefore, the board
desires to urge upon the assessing
officers OF the state the necessity for
more determined effort TO bring TO the
assessment rolls all OF this class Of pro-
psrty subject to taxation.
80 approximate this result the
board considers OF the utmost impor
lance the use OF the written sworn
/ statement Of all persons believed to
have taxable personal property. These
statements must be.dlled out az contem
plated by the statute. every question
therein being answered and the state
ment sworn to by the owner OF the
property. A strict compliance with
this section OF the statute will not only
tend to secure . proper assessment OF
this class Of property, but will obviate
the necessity for the exercise OF the
corrective powers under which the
board ia ct times compelled to act.
Particular .attention is called 10
that part OF Section i52 which provide,
that. when any property has besn re-
viewed and assessed and valued by said
board as herein authorized. such pro
perty snail not be assessed or valued Al
lower figure within period of three
years. where the property remains sub
stantially the same. without the writ
ten consent OF said board. This is Al
entirely new provision of the tax law
one which assessing officers will d.
we'll TO consider carefully in connection
with the COMING assessment.
