AUDITOR GENERAL CALLS ATTENTION

sessment roll.
The number OF descriptions charged
back each year would be materially
reduced IL the supervisors would use
more care in describing property. On
account OF the descriptions being
charged back, considerable loss In
taxes Is sustained by the several town
ships and cities. Also the fact that
taxes are paid to the township and
city treasurers and no entry made on
the tax roll and the description on
which the tax is paid returned delin-
quent to this department causes con-
siderable loss to the county. This is
largely a matter OF carelessness on the
part OF the Official receiving the tax.
/ enclose herewith a statement
showing the total number of descrip-
tions OF land charged to the counties
in the state for the several reasons
given In the years 1914 and 1915; also
the following statements relative to
the counties in the Upper Peninsula:
total number OF descriptions charged
to the counties for all reasons; number
of descriptions charged counties for
the reason land is not assessable:
also the number OF descriptions
charged counties for the reason paid
township, city. village or county treas
urers.
wish you would call attention to
this matter in your columns as 1t will
have tendency to have the super
visors pay more attention to the de-
scriptions on their assessment rolls
and thus reduce the expense to the as
sessing districts in the matter OF
charged back taxes.
Yours truly,
o. b. Fuller,
Auditor General

My dear Mr.. Conlin:--
Inoticein your issue Of the
18th inst. in publishing the proceed
ings of the Board OF Supervisors you
have listed the descriptions charged
10 the county by the Auditor General.
am glad that you published the list
as II will call attention to the errors
by the assessors in describing the
property they assess.
1t is not to the advantage OF this de-
partment to charge descriptions to the
county as II would be better II we
could sustain all that are returned to
us, but In order TO enforce the lien for
taxes the description must be abso-
lutely correct; otherwise. they would
not be purchased and unless the des-
criptions are correct the purchaser
would not be able to identify the land.
The supervisors are not careful
enough in preparing their rolls. as you
will note that number OF descriptions
OF government and tax homestead land
and other lands not subject to assess
ment are on the assessment roll.
know It is somewhat difficult for the
supervisor to ascertain the number Of
descriptions owned by the state or
government in his assessing district.
and as We are DESTROYS OF assisting a
supervisor in correctly describing the
property he assesses, II at any time a
supervisor is in doubt as to whether
the land il subject to assessment or
not, II he would refer the matter to
this department we would be glad to
advise him before he makes his as

THE CHAUTAUQUA-
DO YOU WANT ITO

so far as the Young Men
Business Club ia concerned. a ii
nal disposition OF the matter of
having a chautauqua at Hickman
this year will be disposed ot
this week. A committee has been
appointed 10 take up the matter
with our citizens.
While the last chauiauqua va,
IN session, pledge cards were clr
culated aud signed, resulting lu
about $40 tickets being pledged
An examination OF these cards
by parties competent TO judgo
them would indicate that not ot
or 10 per cent OF the signem will
fail 10 take their tickets uIIs
year Tins would mean We have
good start on the sale of the
400 tickets. which must be guar
anteed There are a few minor
changes ia the contract this year
IA favor of the citizens. Among
Others, Mr. Paisley. agent for the
kedpath people, offers 10 limit
the individual liability Of each of
the 20 men who sign the contract
TO four tickets each. In Other
words. II not season ticket had
been sold up 10 the time for the
chautaaqua 10 begin. these forty
men would have 10 dig up for
only 100 tickets four 10 carI
man But they would still have

cts had been sold and again. II
100 tickets be sold. they would
have 10 take two tickets each DO
finish Out the 400. Under this ar
rangement. the committee is of
the opinion that little trouble
will be experienced IN getting
the necessary signatures. Last
year $500 was the limit 10 indi
yidual liability. aud about 20 men
out of a total of 80 who signed
had 20 make up the deficit.
Another draw back 10 the
ohauiauqua last year was the bg
9TH of July celebration which
caused delay in pushing the
former.
