USE A "BLuFF" TO IMPRESS
Some Cases Of Deception That Have
Como Under the Observation Of
Group OF Bankers.

A group of bankers met for their
daily lunch at a club restaurant
where 1t was their habit to discuss
various problems. This time the con.
versation drifted toward the various
modes Of deception practiced by peo'
pie. One member related how, among
his acquaintances there were five who
owned pianos but not one could play.
These friends, he stated, were In but
fair circumstances, and to his think
ing 1t was folly to invest merely for
the sake Of appearances. Another
member of the party stated that he
knew q family where they had five
shelves for the fake books to enlarge
the library so that 1t would have an
impressive appearance. Glass doors
covered the shelves. and whenever
visitor expressed desire to consult
any particular book the key to the
doors could not be found. Each bank
er seemed to have some story to tell;
even Silent Clarke" as one of the
members was known, because of the
few stories he told startled them all
by reciting the methods employed by
a man he knew whose desire was to
impress everyone that he was rich.
"Why!" he said. that man was SO
crazy to show of that he blacked him
self each morning and washed the win
dows to make people think he could
afford q negro servant."-National

Lawyer Scored on Judge.

Lawyer Scored on Judge.
Lord Mansfield received hard set
ting down from Thomas Erskine. The
latter was arguing case before the
house of lords-a Scottish appeal re-
lating to trust estate. In the course
of his argument he had frequent occa-
sion to use the word curator" always
pronouncing 1t in the manner approved
in the Scottish courts; that is, with
the accent on the first syllable
This grated upon the ears Of Lord
Mansfield. who. though Scotsman by
birth. had taken pains to become
Anglicized. At last he broke out:
"Mr. Erskine. we are in the habit In
this country of saying curator, fol-
lowing the analogy of the Latin. in
which, as you are doubtless aware. the
penultimate syllable is long"
II thank your lordship very much"
returned Erskine. I'VE are weak
enough in Scotland to think that In
pronouncing the word curator we are
following the analogy of the English
language; but need scarcely say that

orator as your lordship." ip."-William 8.

FURTHER INFORMATION
REGARDING TAXATION
OFFICE OF ASSESSOR AN IMPORTANT
ONf...ExEMPT PROPERTY Emu.
MERATED.

udfN ttHG oSoSoSiuSAl ioWo 0DSy ~1l
this year and it is the hope of the
commission that this article will
make it clear why it is to the best
interest of those who have paid the
taxes in the past to have the laws
enforced from now on.
The Bill of Rights Of the con-
stitution (Art. vi. Sec. Io) de-
clares all taxes shall be equal and.
uniform, while Art. XI. Sec. Of
the constitution reads in part:
All taxes to be raised in this
state, shall be uniform on all real
and personal property according to|
its value in money, to be asccr45
tanned by such rules of appraisea|
ment and assessment as may be'
prescribed by the legislature. BY
general law, SO that every person
and corporation shall pay tax in|
proportion to his. her or its prop
erty."
In compliance with the constitu-i
ton laws have been in effect for
years. which hold that all properly
Except certain exemptions) shall
be assessed at the usual cash selling
price at the place where the prep
erty shall be at the time of the AN
sessment. In other words, II
the duty Of the assessor to list q
taxable property and appraise if 81
lsxhst its actually worth riGhs q
Y4K here. If the owner IS re-
quired by law to list property, the
same standard of actual value ap-
plies.
The assessor is the most import
ant officer in our tax system, and
justice or injustice, as the case may
be, is done to the individual tax
payer according to, whether or not
assessors obey the law.
Taxes are supposed to be borne
in proportion to ones ability to
pay and under Our law property is
considered the best evidence of such
ability, and SO assessments are
made to find out how much of the
total tax each property-owner shall
pay.
Suppose one man had visible
property, such as farm land and
machinery worth $4,000 and as
sessed as the law requires, while
another had invisible property.
worth just as much. Under the
practice of the past and in spite of
the law that taxes shall be equal
and uniform" the first man paid
more taxes than he should. Why?
Because the assessor found the land
and tools but usually has failed to
find the invisible property of the
second party and the owner does
not list it. as rule.
Again, if the assessor does his
appraising according to some
schedule of fixed values for each
class of property, without regard
to actual worth. here is the result:
One man owns twenty head of
grade cattle and his neighbor has
twenty head of full-blood cattle.
While each mans assessment is
is supposed to be the actual value
of the property, their assessments
for cattle have generally shown the
same total value. The reason for
this injustice being that the law has
not been complied with.
The only exemptions allowed in
this state are: Real and personal
property of the United States, state,
county and municipal corporations,
property used exclusively for agri
cultural and horticultural societies,
for school, religious. cemetery and
charitable purposes, and not to ex-
ceed SIS worth of household fur
niture and provisions for each in
dividual.

New Barn Opens For Business.

Rickle's livery and sale barn.
under the management of Cal
Smith, opened for business on
Wednesday of last week. The
barn is s6x6o feet and has stalls
for AZ horses with big NOW above
the main part which will conven-
iently hold about 40 tons of hay.
1t is equipped with fork SO that
the unloading will be quick and
not very difficult operation. In
addition to this there is shed room
for vehicles.
In the rear of the barn there is a
large yard enclosed with high WOW
en- wire fencing. The we'll is in
this yard and is SO feet deep and
has I6 feet of water and is pumped
by wind mill.
The lots, barn and we'll represent
an investment of $4,000 and this
will probably be doubled by the
addition of horses, rigs and har-
ness. The barn is fine addition
to that portion of the town and
will be a convenience much appreci-
ated by farmers and others using it.
