TAX
CAUSING HOWLS
Do Not Want to Come Across With
Privilege Tax or Have Machines
Assessed.

Jackson, Miss, April 2.-Much to
the astonishment of property owners,
especially business men, county as
SCISSORS are including typewriters in
their lists of personal property sched-
ules for the year 1912, notwithstand-
ing the fact that the new law making
this class of property subject to as
sessment was not enacted until after
the first of February.
Under the taxing statutes of the
commonwealth all assessments, both
personality and realty, apply to prop
erty owned on the 1st of February,
but the Attorney-General has held
thattypewriters must be assessed this
year, and there appears to be no way
to avoid it unless some person de-
sides to make legal test and get the
matter up for review before the ad-
journment of the present Supreme
court term.
The legislature also aided to its
unpopularity by enacting a statute
fixing privilege tax of s. per annum
on typewriters, additional to the ad
valorem assessment. 1t is not yet
known whether an effort will be made
to collect this Caesarian tribute for
the current year, but the mere enact
ment of the tax has caused howls Of
protest to be sent up from all parts Of
the state, especially from those per.
sons who own typewriters of the slow
and woodburning variety that are
hardly worth more than $5 each.
