THE NEM ASSESSMENT.

r. ar is sug gested the city tax rate now sf.53 on
csch S1O0 OF assessed valuation. will be reduced
sl.35 in the next fiscal year and that under that
rate aud the assessment three-fourths OF the
Wilmington property owners win pay less taxes than
they paying at present it viii be a triumph foI
the present Republican administration Of which Mayor
Howell is the head u is understood of course that
the S35 rate is merely suggestion at the present
ume because the assessment has not progressed
to chat stage which warrants the announcement OF
definite figures Everyone connected with that work
confident however that the equalization will
bring much lower rate than the one now prevail
ing reduction in the taxes on thousands OF small
properties, and more for the city Those are
things greatly to be desired and administration
that can bring them about will stand high in the
opinion Of the people of Wilmington.
The equalization work doubt win raise many
severe critics Of the Howell administration. Prop
erty owners who have been enjoying in the past out
rageously low while their noghbors have
been assessed to the ht will like the new ASSESS
ment which compels them to pay their fair share OF
taxes for the support Of the city II will
bo easy however TO dispose of such critics because
thesf critcisa Ni rest .pon dishonest and an un-
tenanie foundation. Tho property owner who knows
that his assessment is high and that ne is paying
taxes than he ought TO pay has valid argument
when he demands a reduction. That Is not true how
ever IN the Of the property owner who IS seek
ing TO dodge the payment of taxes through low as
sessment He knows at the outset that he Is wrong
and that those who have engaged in the equalization
work are right That hs greatest weakness in event
OF controversy. The man who goes into heht
knowing that he is wrong and that his opponent IS
right is shorn OF most Of his argumentatve power So
It will be with those who paying taxes on ridicu-
ously low assessments under existing conditions and
VINO will be called upon to do the right thing under
the new and eQualized assessment. When they raise
their voices in criticism OF the equalization work done
the people will know what value 70 attach to what
they say and the city officials will have rrefuable
answer at command for all such critics They will
be able to show in circumstantal detail the extent OF
the past tax-dodging that has been engaged in by
each OF the complanants and also the amount Of the
taxes that should have been paid by such complainant
that actually paid BY his neighbors because OF
the ourageously low assessment he enjoyed at theii
expense
1t will be exceedingly difficult for tax-dodger tc
make much headway the critic Of AN honest as

IN EMOCRATIC rumor-nonsers H. this county
- have suffered another reverse. Much to their
disappointment the Republican majority OF che Levy
1ourt has effected an organization for the ensuing
and that too, without Democratic Intervention
assistance.
Wholly apart from the personality OF the rival
oldates for the presidency OF the court Il may be
said that what the Republican lha body did
was the sensible thing Tor them TO do t would have
been exceedingly unwise for them TO have permitted
he Democratic minority 70 NEEDLE n the settlement Of
Republican dispute. There is doubt that that min
ority stood ready and willing to meddie the full
extent Of it's II is to the credit Of the Repub-
iican members that they composed their differences
without such assistance.
The Republican majority is responsible the work
OF the Levy Court. It cannot escape chat responsl-
by. While there is doubt that the rival candi-
dates for the Presidency had many good friends we
do not think of them thought the Office worth
creation of breach in the Republican majority tina,
would give the Democratic minority any political
other advantage.
