.tsscsnnriits and Taxation.
Tho sonsDii is npifOrttliiii wlicn tlio
uniiuiil nwpHHmcnt of personal proper
ty, for 1ST-, taken pluco. Jn n few
weeks, nt tho furthest, each of tho
thirty Assessors of Clejuiielil county
will luivo u dnpllealo placed in their
hands by the County Commis&ioners,
for tho purpose, of cmmicriitin und
valuing the personal nroperty in their
respective, boroughs and townships.
Il was decreed more limn eighteen
hundred years ngo ihnt all the world
kliould bo taxed. The justness of this
edict has been fully established by its
udoption by every civilized tuition.
Tho designs of tlio tux luwa in this
country are supposed to bo just j and
such I hoy tiro, if properly understood
und administered. It is as iiimh the
duty of tho citizen to cunti ibuto his
duo hhnre of tax towards tho support
of the Stato and municipal ufiiiirs ol
his country, as to support himself and
family J and the only difficulty in the
way, U, to seo that this b.U'lhen is
equally imposed upon tho citizens;
that each pays his duo proportion ;
and that none escape. Wo propose to
point out some of the vagaries pre
vailing among Assessors in this county,
with referenco to tho, assessment ol
property. Tho personal properly in
this county id assessed entirely too
low. Tho County Commissioners, in
order to meet tlio Stato tax demanded
of tho county by llio Stato authori
ties, aro compelled to take out of the
County Treasury, annually, about
$100 to pay tho Stato tax; tl)ii
coring Uo Act of Assembly which
vxempts real estate from paying n
State tax, just because tho personal
property is nA asssod at its prvpor
value. An examination of the former
assessments demonstrates that horses,
mules, cows, oxen, buggies, carriages,
watches and occupations, are put nl
from 4J to 70 per cent, below a prop
er value. Tho star.darJ valuo of
horses in this county for tax purposes,
eliould be fi:;ed at" 8100. Thus, -J 00
horses in Urady township fcliould be
returned by the Assessor, valued at
forty thousand dollars, (810,000);
wliilo 100 in Kartliaus should be re
turned at ten thousand dollars, (310,
000); und those in Deeutur and Hus
ton should bo returned at n M-nilar
... - - "v i.,...v. .1110
Assessor of ono township should not
bo allowed to ixlurii horses at $10
while another returns them ut 870
and still another at $120. This seems
scarcely proballo, yet such was the
caso at llio last assessment, and all
tho Assessors took tho samo o.ilh.
Tho result of this gross inequality
was that tho County Conimis.Monei
wcro compelled to overhaul tho assess
nioiits, and equalize tho valuo of the
properly thus nominally rated; and
iu doing 60, many u worthless horse
was put loo high, from the very fact
that lliey had no personal knon ledge
of tho animal, such as tho Assessor
enjoys. To illustrate sliil further the
mode of assessing horses, we give the
following :

Ji.iniO
JO Hoi-am, nt t.'-O eoeli...

100 Hums, t 100 each IO.iiuO
According to this rulo tho hordes
van bo divided into three, four, five or
six classes, and niado to aveiagu $100
each. Xot less than half the number
in fault borough and township should
be assessed at $100 and the balance
can bo put down ut from $.! (the
valuo of a cow, and if not worth that
they aro not worth assessing,) to
t-o9. Thero are a largo number of
horses in this county worth over 8200,
and tho Asfcussors bhould find them,
instead of so many poor ones.
TLercfore, let tho Assessor aJopl
as a stiindiird 8100 for a horse, $20
for a cow, $73 for oxen, and S75 for
buggies and carriages, and they will
enable tho County Commissioners to
raise tho nmount of tax demanded by
tho Slato authorities, and in tho man
ner designated by law.
In May, 1870, wo reviewed the as
lossmcnt of lStiO, and after pointing
out llio insignificant valuation placed
upon property, said :
"Tlio inequality of assessments i
also demonstrated in other partioulurs.
While no township or borough bus as
sessed horses or other properly, high
enough, it will to c-Ucrvcd that in
some (llio higliol) they are wsessed
at 872, while iu others (tho lowest)
they aro valued ut but C!-'. This is
certainly not ';iiit'' ; because, if .1
person happens to ic-miIo in llio for
nicr townships, and owns ft horse, he
musl pay sautij ltrr eufs county lux,
and school, Stato, roa I and poor lax
in proportion. II, however, ho resides
in the latter townships, ho only pays
n county tax of forty-two ends, or
seventy per cent. luss. Now, if a
liursu is worth 8100 in r,urnide, or
C J I in Huston, what is to hinder it
Irwin being Woilh tho sanio iu Jordan,
,l 'uvinjton or Urudl'orJ f This is a
question that interests Assessors ami
tax payer especially tho former, as
lliey u t under oath ; and il is one for
t hem to sole.

missioners and Supervisors put on

sury nioneyv ; 1
"It must ho tivlJunl to every busi
ness man, ami particularly those who
aspiro to tho duties ot Assessor, that
In every borough and township in tho
county there aro horses worth from
$20 lo $200, ii majority of whom aro
worth at lesst $100. Why, therefore,
cannot 200 horses in lleecaria, or SO
in Goshen, bo iniido to averngo 8100
instead of 8o5 and Co0 7 Tho tamo
rulo w ill apply to tows : While some
aro worth but $13, others aro worth
from $20 to SjO, while llio average
iu the county. So with oxen I They,
should bo at least $20 in every district
however, seem to bo assessed higher
than cither horses, cows or any other
personal property. Tho return of
buggies and carriages is greatly ne
glected, while that of watches is al
most ignored, not ono in fifly buing
returned."
Tho citizen who is able lo own it
bug'y or carriago worth from $00 to
$230, or flourishes a feolj or silver
watch valued ut from 820 to WOO, in
tends to pay the taxes Imposed by
law if tho Assessor only places them
upon the duplicate.
Tlio assessment of professions and
occupations is also greatly neglected.
Every citizen over 21 years of age,
should bo assessed with un occupation.
If ho ho a carpenter, blacksmith, shoe
maker, tailor, merchant, laborer, or
anything else, say so, and rale him at
from $20 to $300, according to his
business.
The assessment of money nt inter
est is almost wholly neglected. Al
though only taxablo fur Stato pur
poses, nt tho rale of three mills, every
money lender suoc oods in concealing
his iiioncv from tho Assessor. So
individual makes more money out of
his property than tho money lender,
yet his property escapes taxation al
together; while tho farmer, mechanic
and laborer, has county, road, school,
Stato and poor tax piled on him forty
mills high; and uflcr paying all the
taxes, if ho wants to borrow a little
cash from the untaxed money lender,
ho must pay ten or fifteen mills more.
Tho equity of tho whole question
lies with llio Assessors. If they pro
duco uniformity in tho valuo of prop
erly the Coliiluishioiiers will regulutc
the mills, lint if ono Assessor returns
liia hors.s at un averago of $50 and
another $100, and still another at 8125,
llio County Commissioners will be
compelled to lear up their work by
tho roots. If tho Assessors do their
work according to law, tho Commis
sioners will not touch it. llolli Asset

former fails, cither through ignorance
or design, to dischargo that duty the

order to prevent lux payers from bo

ScjtximLi.isM. All udulls now liv

proclamation declaring martial law,

evidenco that the roiginutors and de

intend to belie history, and havo per
petrated a double fraud upon the coun

wickedest act done by tho Lincoln

ho can easily pay that idler having
stolen $:i00,000 out of the Stato Treas

never committed In this Slato, yet il

During Mr. Marcer's administration
of tho ollii-e of City Treasurer ho has
negotiated over $3,000,000 of tho city
loan, and, althouL'li (ho Mayor is by
ordinance nlono authorized lo borrow
tho mont-v, yet it has been tho prac
tico for him to delegate thnt duty lo
tho City Treasurer. .Mr. Marccr, as
agent of the Mayor, selected Charles
1. ierkes, Jr., & to., brokers, to sell
the loans.
Tho evidenco taken before tho com
milleo clearly establishes the fact lliul
lurgo Bums of money belonging to Iho
city wcro ullowed to remain in C. I
Yerkes, 3r.,k Co.'s hand without any
security whatever of any vuluo. This
fact wus carefully concealed from the
Committee to verily the Cash Ao
eoutfts of tho City Treasurer. C. T
Yerkes, Jr., & Co , always settled their
uccouuts with the City I rcusurer, on
tho lln-t day of tho month, just before
tho visit of said Committco, and ro
ceived return checks from tho Treasur
er, tho oxislenco of which was not
made known to tho Committee. The
bunk balances were idways correctly
mado up ut the lima of tho Com mil
tee's inspection of the uccouuts. But
these checks to C. T. Yoikes, Jr
Co., wcro already In bis hands us
at;uii:st that balance, ukhnugh not
drawn. Tho amount of these given
lo C. T. YcrKos, Jr., i Co., on iho IJOih
day of September, represented by tho
,ln" l. in -...j, j-.. j Oc
tober a, 1871, is s:;uo,ouo
Tho City Treasurer uli-o, from timo
to time, authorized C 1. ierkes, Jr.
A Co.. to sell tho loans of tho city
and placed lo his credit, nl the begin
ing of tho mouth, tho amount to be
disposed of during such month. Bo
twoen tlio 1st and lith of October
Iho amount so placed to his credit was
$1 13,000, all of this, as tho Committee
is inlormed, has been disposed nf by
C. T. Yerkes, Jr., V Co., by sales abso
lutely or by hypothecation from his
own debts, has never been accounted
for or puid over to the city, or any
part of tho same. Tho City Treaiu
rer also paid lo O. T. Yerkes, Jr ,
Co., the eum ofC:!3,0H 61 for loans
directed lo bo purchased by the Com
missioncrs of tho Sinking I'und. This
sum was received by Yerkes, Jr., &
Co., but tho purchase was never mailo
by them, although tho City Treasurer
has his account for such purchase, in
tho ordinary form in uso among
brokers. Theso three transactions
mako upa total deficiency of J17,0J8..
51. The Commiltco cannot condemn in
laniruago too strong the misconduct
of tho City Treasurer, his chief clerk,
David Jones, and the fraudulent acts ot
C. T. Yerkes, Jr., A Co.
Tho testimony taken beforo tho
Committee also shows that O. T. Yo-r-kos,
Jr., k Co., with funds of tho city,
which should havo boon applied by
llio City Treasurer to tho payment of
warrants outstanding, or retained lor
interest on funded debt, was ullowed
to purchase tho loans of tho city, and
sometimes hold llio same over the in
terest period, ho receiving tho interest,
on tho same for his use. Wholhor or
not ibis wus divided wilh the City
Treasurer and his chief clerk could
not ho ascertained, as tho hitter do
dined lo answer tho question upon
thnt subject. The amount ol loans
held by C. T. Yoikes, Jr., & Co., on
tho 1st day of July, 1871, in his name
was 81 Pi.OOO, on which ho received
llio interest, ho boinjr, nl tho time, a
debtor to tho city for throo or four
times llial amount, und on which in
debtedness tho city never received n
dollar of interest.
Tho conclusion thnt tho City Treas
urer or his chief clerk wus paid for
this accommodation is irresistible.
Tho only explanation by tho City
Treasurer for authorizing O. T. Yer
kes, Jr., k Co., lo purchase tho loans
of tho city in such largo amounts, wus,
that ho thought it necessary to do so
in order to buoy up tho outstanding
loans so as the belter to dispose of tho
loans on hand to bo sold, asthey were
wanted for tho purposes of the city.
Tho Committee, it need hardly be said,
even if tho action of llio City Treas
urer had never resulted in loss to the
city, would bo compelled to say that
il wus entirely unauthorized by any
hnv or ordinance, ns tho City Treasu
rer is iu no sense responsible as such
for tho condition of llio loans of the
city on tho open tmtrknt, nnd has no
authority whatever totlcal in theloans
of the city, with its funds, except when
directed by tho Commissioners of tho
Sinking Fund to purehaso for their
account.
Tho Committeo has also givon its
attention lo one other subject ofgrent
impnrluncc! The nclion of tho City
Controller in refusing to countersign
certain certificates of loan for the
transfer mado on tho City Tiensur
or' s ollloo of $ 1 13,0110 sold by C. T.
Yerkes, Jr., & Co., ns already slated,
und also in giving notice by adver
tisement thai ho would not approve
of the transfer ol other loans, actually ,
issued, bus excited u great deal of
common!, not only among I hoso ac
tually interested, but in llio business
community generully. And tho Com.
milleo, while approving ol tlio action
of tho Citv Controller in tho mutter
until a propor investigation could bo
luuilo, aro unanimously ol llio opinion
that tho city is in honor and fustico
bound by tho act of tho City Trous
urer, and ull trunsfers made by him,
und till certificates issued by him of
loans which ho was authorized to sell,
must bo recognized by tho city with
out question.
iho public, ueiilni! in tier securities,
must be assured thut tho acts ofhor
agent or officers in llio lino of their
duty will nover bo gainsaid. The city
cannct and must uol claim uny ex
emption from tho risks which besut
all corporations and individuals ulike,
who aro compelled lo employ ngonis
to perform service for them.

A Loval UoniiEit William B Stokes,
a liudical ex Congressman from Tenn
csseo, two years ago the defeated Uadi
cal candidate for Governor of that
Stato, and now supervisor of iutornnl
revenuo of tho same, was arrested on
his arrival at Washington last week
for swiudling tho troasnry through
certain bounty claims. The amount
stolen by him is estimated to bo from
sxfy to one hundred thousand dollars.
Stokes has been a ranting, howling
loyalist, invoking wilh his foul tongue
political pains and penalties on all
Southern Democrats, und always ready
in tho intensity of his patriotism to
walk three miles out of his way to
kick a dead rebel. If even handed
justice ii meted out to this arrant
hypocrilo and thief, tho renitonliory
will soon claim him as its own. liut
as liis Congressional colleaguo in in
famy, Uoderie It. Iliithr. not Itinir
sinco escaped conviction for a similar
crime, so will Stokes bo nblo to brush
nwny tho cobwebs of tho law and em
bark in another career of fraud and
plunder.
