BERGESON ANO FACER:
WHY AND WHEREFORE
THE HOUSE OF BERGESON

In speaking of taxes, and the official acts of Com
missioner Bergeson, we do not desire to be unjust
mr. TO make innuedOS from which definite conclusions
NAV be hard to draw. Mr.. BergeSon is a public Of
fcia whose official acts are open to inspection and
in taking passing glance at his official acts, we
prefer to get just as close to him as possible
The record sshow that in five cases Mr.. Bergeson
reduced his own taxes as follows:
100 acres assessed at $4,000 cut to S6sO.OO
24O acres assessed at 100000 cut to $4,000
12O acres assessed at $4,000 cut to $4sOOO
12O acres assessed at $4,000 cut to $4,000
12O acres assessed at 100000 cut to $4,000
1t further shows 229 acres assessed at $4,000
slightly over $500 per acre.
In the case of Albert Bergeson, his brother the
records show the following:
70 acres assessed at $4,000 cut to 100000
rs acres assessed at $35O0.OO cut to $2725OO
16 acres assessed at $4,000 cut to $4,000
Joseph Bergeson another brother the records
shows IS acres assessed at $875.00 cut to $4,000.
Now it may be that this wholesale reduction on
the part of Mr.. Bergeson, who was Judge and Jury
over his assessments and those of his brothers
is warranted and justified, but the question natur-
ally arises in the minds of the tax payers why such
reductions in the blouse Of Bergeson?" The man
who assessed the Bergeson property was apparently
of Mr.. Bergeson's own choosing and would be ex-
pected to do him justice along side with his fellow
citizens. If he did not do Mr. Bergeson justice, it
would appear as though the assessor should have
been discharged. If Mr.. Bergeson has any good
to advance for his apparent activity in his
official capacity to his own interest, no doubt the
people of Cache County would be glad to hear from
him.
