Dear Chronicle i-<? ? As this is my first 1 hope it Wont bo my last to givo your readers a few dots froru thiR placc. I hft'e been thinking of eoming to the front for some time hut something would always {urn up to hinder; not that I am wanting office, oh I no, but only to puggff'ifct Rome hints to thoco already in otHee. Now tho first suggestion Mint comes uppermost is- this : the time for mak ing returns of taxable property is on hand and tho law requires every per /son owning or having tho control or I management of property to make & ??Jost and honest returb of all taxable property under oatti. Now after that comes along three or fonr men more honest and honorable than the rest of us foo's and say9 when they como to my return that fool ditjl not have knowledge enough torofurn his property at what it ia worth, there foi o we _wi I l_say\i t.ifi. JsnrLli? so so a lid msko him pay jo*t what we please. Now would It not he ws$ to have thoso threo or four men make our return if they know the valiyi tlon of our property better than wc do? What is the use of us bother ing to make a return if they know the vftlue of our property better than we do? I will state what I heard the board say and do ono time ? just as honest and as honorable a hoard as has ever been (I could give names but it is unnecccsfcary now) That board came to ono of my neighbors property who had not re turned a mule at full value, so they raised it. Anothor man gave his in at more than its value hut they did not shave any off. Now in the name of God is that equalization? Now I do not know what men constitute this board, but I do know that a man living 10 or 15 miles from anotiier man's property and has nev er seen it can't tell what that prop erty is worth. If all lands were eqUrtl, and other property the same, for instanco, If every horse was the same age, else and equal in every re spect I would say any man could give a just and equitable return for *11 property, fa tjie county, but any one knowd that lands that will make COO lbs per acre it worth more than lands that wont make more than 200 lbs per acre. So all othor property varle^io^raluation. There is a big diffemlfo in a oow ' that will give from 2 to 0 gallons of milk than one that wont give more than that many fWs- 1 S.
