 The board of assessors announce' that lists of property must be flied with the board by Saturday night al s o'clock to avoid the penalty of an additional 10 per cent on tax lists The assessors are in session nearly every day for the purpose of ac- ccpting the lists and to date only a small percentage of the property owners in town has compiled with | the law.
 Although numerically the number of property owners who have al- ready filed their lists is great, the proportion of those who have not is great also with respect to the total number of property owners. Fail ure to have the lists in the hands of the assessors by Saturday evening at 8 o'clock will cost the delinquents good deal with the additional ten per cent which will be imposed as a penalty. No lists will be accepted after next Saturday night at 8 o'clock. Interesting Speech Given A large crowd of interested voters turned out last evening to hear Willis Ballinger, director of the speakers bureau for the La Toilette Wheeler campaign, present the ar guments of the third party. The audience was by far the largest which has attended the three meet ings held to explain the political views of the three parties.
 The arguments of the third party were delivered in a clear and con- else manner and the records of both the Republican and Democratic nominees were attacked on the grounds of their past performances. The achievements of the standard bearers of the third party were ex- tolled and their records were re- cited
 Although the audience was com posed of voters of all political faiths those present declared that the speech was well worth listening to and 1t was evidenced to them why the third party campaign has gained such headway even in Plainyille, where up to now it has been more or less an unknown quantity.
