view has completed its work of equal
izing the assessments for this year.
The complaint of Harry NJ. McCaskrin
against the Modern Woodmen of
America urging that the reserve fund
of the organization be listed for tax
alton was dismissed. On his protest
against William Jackson, the board
found an error in the penalty which
the assessor, John F. Moeller, i'm
posed. When Mr.. Jackson did not
sign his schedule, the officer added 100
per cent to his personal property
when the same should have been but
so per cent. The assessment of $4,000
was advanced to $4,000 but under the
rulings of the board, this sum was re-
duced to $4,000 An assessment of
$500 was added against Mr.. Jackson,
as conservator of the estate of Carrie
Barth, about which Mr.. McCaskrin
had entered complaint. On the peti-
ton of Mr.. McCaskrin relative to F,
K. Rhoads, the board increased the as.
sessment by adding $75 for horse.
