The board of revision and appeals di rected the bourd of assessors to make out and return n full, Just and equal assessment of nil taxable property In the elly of Kcranton, and to llnlsh the work by the first of next year. The as sessors have four months to do the work and without assistants they cal culate that they would be able to do It in about two years.

LENGTH OF TI.MR KKQI'IRKD. Without help they would have to go about through every ward In the city and they say It Is an absolute Impossi bility to do It in less than two years. Hut the assessment must be made In four months, and they believe that they are ustillcd in appointing assist ants under these circumstances. II is to be a new assessment made on no figure of this or last year or the year before. The assessors propose to go ahead and plaee a Just and fair value on all properly. It will be in every sense the same as a triennial as sessment. Assistants have been em ployed every year since lSXtf, and the board thinks that this year ought to be no exception. The board sought legal advice from City Solicitor Torrey on the subject with the result that they were told that they could not hire assistants this year without there was legislation to that effect enacted by councils, but they are going ahead regardless of the advice and will trust to the future to solve the dilllculty. They have made sure, how ever, that they cannot be held person- they are justified in appointing assist ants. I.trfT OF ASSISTANTS.
