total this year or about $llSsVSV, as compared with last years.
 The lists will now go to the board of relief which will meet next Thursday, Feb. l, and other times during the month to hear property owners who feel they were treated unfairly. After the boards work is done the grand lists will be put in shape for the next year. Rocco Mariana, N. A olson, and H. H. Schofield com- prise the members of the board. Carl Thompson and Robert Cleary are the assessors.
 A decrease in goods on hand at the factories is one of the reasons for the lower figure this year.
 Net Total
 The net total of the lists for this wear with exemptions deducted. amounts to $19,488,355. Of this amount the inside district which covers most of the town has net total of $17,S64,S20 and the out side district has a total of $1,62S,- 535. For last year the list, as compil- eG by the assessors amounted to S19.6O7,438. One of the reasons for the decrease is believed to be the law which requies . 20 per cent devaluation in cars over the pre- vious years, that is cars which are not new. The assessed value Of these cars for 1892 was subject to a 20 per cent cut and there was not enough new cars registered to make up the difference in the money drop.
