The cost of the tax commission is

ever, repeats two other acts each of
which carried an appropriation
these being the measures providing
for the state license and bullion tax
agent and the expenses of the state
board of assessors, which together
cost the state annually $4,000. The
net cost of the tax commission which
performs the duties formerly devolv-

therefore $4,000 per year.

The tax commission has met with
the usual opposition incident to any

are compelled to surrender illegal

activities of a class of taxpayers who
anticipate an adjustment of the as

personal detriment. Such an adjust

into q song:

been prophetic In regard to dark-eyed

nothing seemed to please them better
than to come between man and man.

windows and men sing beneath their
balconies at midnight. Already 1t had
