To Overtake A Mistake.

1t is hard to overtake a printed
mistake, but as the Palatka News
made one last week it is going to try
and catch up with it and correct it.
Last week we stated that at the
convention of State Tax Assessors last
year it was decided "by resolution to
assess all mortgages, but after the
convention the assessors determined
not to do so-all but Mr.. Bullard," ="
This was our mistake, and going un-
corrected it would do Mr.. Bullard,
who is one of the most conscientious
assessors in the State a great injus-
tice. AS a matter of fact the conven-
ton in question decided by resolution
NOT to assess mortgages, but after
the meeting adjourned the State Tax
Commission ordered assessors to as
sess all mortgages. Mr.. Billiard
followed instructions, as the law di-
rected him to; other assessors. did not.
This year Mr.. Billiard says he is not
going to assess mortgages; that it is
unfair to assess them in Putnam
county and let them out in other
counties.
The News greatly regrets its mis-,
take of last week, especially as il
might injure Mr.. Bullard. He has
ample trouble without our making
him any that is unnecessary.
