others have been sentenced.
Barber, who is scarcely out OF his

and his main desire is thai his mother
does not learn OF his plight.
Barber seems to have y n wrong

advice he WOULD not have been held

arrest was a % OF letters. all from
his mother. In each ~ she begged
him to be a good boy and keep out Of
bad company. She said she prayed

County System Less Costly.
1t has been urged hat the county
pensive than the township system.
AS the county assessor system has
been adopted by nearly one-half OF
the states in the Union the commits
sion investigated the cost in those
states. which have recently changed
conclusion is tina it is less expensive
than the township system and much
moro eective. Every state having the
county assessor system to which in
quiries were addressed reported it
both economic and effective. The
general experience is that the amount
Of new property found and listed more
than pays for all the expense Of as
sessment.
cussion Of this subject: This COM
mission is firmly Of the opinion that
without the county assessor Its work
Will be greatly handicapped. To Sc,
within the state through fifteen hun
dred elective township officers is a
physical i~mpossibility. The very null
tipltcity Of correspondence. the utter
impracticability of conventions or
conferences will be admitted by any
one familiar with administrative func-
|tions. II any considerable amount Of
taxable property of the state which Is
now escaping taxation il to be listed
and the appraisement Of all taxable
property mad to even approximate
uniformity. the GENERALIZATION of .au.
|thOrity must be continued downward
to the secondary taxing district by
the adoption of the county assessor
system. That this is true is indicated
by an address delivered at h annual
meeting Of the Kansas County As
SCISSORS. by S. T. Howe, chairman Of
the tax commission, who called atten-
ton to the fact that the total valua-
ton, under the old township assessor
system was in 1907 $425,281.215; that
in 1908. under the first valuation UNI
der the new county assessor system,
a total Of t2.451, $50, 1877 vas reached,
Ian amount over 81 times the valua-
ton Of 1907. In 1909 the assessment
was further increased to $2.511,260.-
285, which amount was more than b.9
times the valuation Of 1907. The levy
was not relatively decreased. owing
to the fact of the increased needs OF
the various taxing districts. The rate
in 1907 was 4.67 per cent: In 1905 and
1903 1t was / per cent. 1t is unde-
niable that the new method Of assess-
ment has brought about a readjust-
