Section 254, Rule 3, General Statutes, prabibits coun'y board* from reducing "the as Derore elated, auditors nrc not limited ^ in time as to the performance of their duties, except by the settlement with treasurer, that is, the auditor has until the settlement with the treasurer in 1802 to g-1 upon his tnx duplicates a? its true value in money all the personal property in his county f-r the fiscal year 1800-01. The Omptr tiler Genera', under the law, will insist upon this being done, and as far as passible every do'Iar of taxable property in the State made to benr its just and equitable portion of the burden of taxation, and if auditors now in office will not or cannot discharge their duties fully and fearlessly ^ others will be, from the ?cry exigencies of .jar the publio interests, substituted in tbeir "If p'aces, who can and will do their duty. No idle thought or beast of superior position induces this demand, but the interests of the State, the people of South Carolina demnnd . It, and it must be done. There aro reasons for believing that a very large percentage of cash deposited in banks, etc, escapes taxation. To obviate this particular deficiency In the return of personal property the attention of auditors is cal'ed to Section 200, General Statutes, which authorizes them "during business hours to enter the office of Buch bank or banking association nnd obta<n a list of all persons, parties, companies, corporations or agents, who may at any lime have any depos t, either personal or general, in such bank." No individual, corpora tion or company liable to taxatioo in Ins or the'r county, |should escape the vigilance of the auditor. Any person or persons who have commenced business sinee the fiTst of January should bo required to return and ???jluirortU, whether by the individual, looted Tftei^ 'wTer^'rcfur'AI I have not been n a to.
