CAUSE OF INCREASED RUSH
OF TAX PAYERS EXPLAINED

officials in the county assessors office,
that many people visit your office of
late and particularly after paying their
tatNes. Can you tell me why?'
This brought out the information thaS
most of the callers are after informa-
tion as to why tho taxes are heavier
than formerly. Many or these inquir-
erS seem to have overlooked the fact
that there arc taxes to be paid on their
automobiles and that $50 or such Il
matter added to their certificate is for
personal property tax. In this conncc-
ton 1t Is said that many persons have
not tho least idea that they have to
pay property tax on their automobiles,
believing that the license paid annually
is the enu of that.
Very fow complaints are made TO tho
assessor of property valuation, the fig
ures placed on their property is most
always considered fair. The complaints
arc on the mill Tutc-why is it higher
Than last year or several years ago?
That's tho question with which neither
an assessor or the treasurer have any
thing to do.

Why have several thousand more
people than usual paid their taxes in
Pueblo county before the first day of
March this year?
why have so many of the tax payers
OF late visited the office of the county
assessor?
These two questions have been asked
SO often during the past month that
official answers were yesterday sought.
County Treasurer StanIrd. when
asked II he know why the number
OF tax certificates issued from his Of
tiCc prior to March l was so very much
larger than usual. IIc assigned two
reasons. one that the people want to
save the penalty OF one per cent 4
