FIX ASSESSORS PAY.
Supervisors Establish Amounts to Be
Paid For Work.

Supervisors Establish Amounts to Be
Paid For Work.
Assessors are to receive stipulated
sum for making the assessment OF
property this spring, instead Of pay
based entirely on a per day basis. The
supervisors have found that the law
requires them to fix the exact amount
to be paid, instead Of allowing bills for
$3.50 a day for every day the assessors
work. Saturday the supervisors fixed
the scale, which is based on $3.50 day
of eight hours, the scale being the
maximum. Tt varies in different town
ships and towns, being governed by the
population and territory to be covered
One reason for the change from the
old system, which the supervisors say
had no authority in law, was that they
claim that some assessors turned in
time, and drew pay. for a much longer
time than ought to have been required
for the work.
