Editor: There is to be a reassessment of real estate at this time and it is hoped that this will be more equilably done than heretofore. There are lands iu the county which sold for s.hont one dollar rtftr acre and which cannot ?be sold for more, which are tared at the rate of about two dollars per acre. Again there are many lands which will sell for ten and twelve dollars per aero which are>3scssed at only three or four dollars. An honest landholder who was willing to pay his fair proportion of taxes was beard to express surprise that his land which would sell for twelve dollars was only assessed at four dollars per acre when he knew that much land was assessed at or above its full selling price. Such an unrighteous condition of affairs need only to be mentioned to be condemned. It is the;sworn doty of the Equalization Board to see that every Diece of nroDertv stall be assessed equitably its between man and man, without few, faror, or affection. In, mauy-bounties a rale is adopted of assessing renl estate at from one-third to two-thirds the selling value and the effort is made to apply one rale to all tax payers. The same rule should certainly apply in Fairfield. Tax Payer. ?Hennas' photographs are the best. He will '-o at Thsspian Hall for ten days from February 19.

The farmers are quite jubilant here over the little rise in the price of cotton. This is very encouraging to their drooping spirits. But we all know that it is only a refreshiug shower. 'Twill only last until after cotton is planted, and then the long drought of low prices will lay it flat again. Many of the farmers here who are not satisfied with getting five ceuts for their cotton were very much dis appointed on last monaay taai mc Jotton Growers Association was not well attended. It seems that many ofour farmers throughout the country are satisfied to sit with folded hands and see the price of cotton go to nothing.
