Monday is Day Set by Law to
Hear Complaints ON ASSESS
ment of Personal Property
RAISE ON PERSONAL GOODS
Those Owning Real Property
Had Personal With Real.
MERCHANTS ARE HARD HIT
Tax Rate is Lower This Year Than
Last Year But All Personal Prop
erty is Assessed on a Higher
Bass Than Last Year.

The county commissioners will meet
Monday TO hear complaints about the
assessment of personal property, the
law saying that the time for such
complaints shall be on the first Nom
day in December.
The time to equalize real property
is the first Monday in June but per-
sonal property assessment and eouali-
zation is made the first Monday in
December.
While the rate of taxes this year
is less than last year the valuation
placed on real property is higher and
thus the taxes will be a great deal
higher than last year.
Personal property is generally house
hold goods and stocks of merchandise
held by merchants. With an increase
of thirty percent in valuation despite
the lower rate it makes an increase
of taxes of about twenty five percent
for the merchants to pay this year,
which, of course, must be added to
the selling price of the merchandise.
