HON. JOHN NEAL, CHAIRMAN OF
THE STATE TAX COMMISSION,
MAKES SUCH REPORT AFTER A
TOUR OF THIS SECTION OF THE
STATE,
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL.

Tallahassee, Oct. 11.-Hon. John
Neal, chairman of the state tax COM
mission, has returned from a visit
to the counties west 8fthe Suwannee
river, making an investigation into the
tax records of these counties to gain
information for the board as TO the tax
valuations of one county as compared
to those of other counties. Mr.. Neal,
when asked by a correspondent what
had been his observations in this con-
nection, stated that there is a great
! inequality in the tax valuations of the
various counties. For example, he
stated, in some counties, Che mentioned
Calhoun county in particularly bank
stock is given in for taxes for its full
value while in other counties he finds
| that valuations are made as low as '25
per cent of the capital stock Of the
| bank the surplus and undivided profits
| not being taxed at all. He showed the
| correspondent some reports filed in his
office by some of the counties. Mr..
! Neal said: NOW here is a county
| which gives in cattle at So a head, here
| is a report next to this county giving
| in cattle at s6 q. head, and to glance
| through these reports you will see $3.50
| to $500 mules valued at from $40 to
| 800 a head In our Investigations we
| find that some counties have valued
! land for taxation as low as 10 cents
an acre. We are now working, visit
| ing all the counties or the state, load
! ing up with full information as to the
| conditions with the view of putting the
| tax valuations on a more equitable
| basis. For instance, take Calhoun
| county where the banks are required
to pay taxes on their full valuation as
| compared with the county where they
! only have to pay % per cent Of their
values; it is unfair to one county as
compared to the other, and 1t is our
purpose to even up these inequalities
and put the burden of taxation on a
more equitable basis Mr.. Neal has
now visited all counties west Of the
Suwannee river except Franklin coun-
ty, and he left yesterday for an
| investigation of that county; and the
other two commissioners, Messrs. Pat
terson and Edwards, have been away
for a couple of weeks visiting the
counties in the eastern and southern
parts of the state.
