Barrow's School House, Midway ownship, Friday, January 94th, 1896. Taxpayers return what they own n the first day of January, 1896. All personal property, must be re urned this year. Assessors and tax-payers will enter he firs;t given name of the tax-payer a full. also make a separate return or each party for the township the iroperty is in, and where the tax mayer owns realty, to insert the post fice as their place of residence, and hose who only own personal prop rty, to give the party's name who wns the land they live on as their esidence, which aids the tax-payer ,s well as the county treasurer in aaking the collections and prevent ag errors. Every male citizen between the ges of twenty-one and sixty years a the first day of January, 1896, ex ept those incapable of earning a upport from being maimed, or from ther causes, shall be deemed tax ble polls. This does not apply to ~onfederate soldier over fifty years of ,ge. All the returns that are made after he twentieth day of February will ave a penalty of 50 per cent, added hereto, unless out of the county uring the time of listing. Not :nowing the time of listing is no ex use. The assessing and collecting of axes is all done now in the same ear, and we have to aggregate the lumber and value of all the horses, attle, mrulr, &c., and their value, at there is in the county, and ave samne on file in the Comptroller ~eneral's office by the thirtieth day f June each year. And from that he to the first day of October each rear the auditor's and treasurer's .uplicate has to be completed and n abstract of the wvork in the Comip roller's office by that time, which vill show at a glance that the audi or has no time to take in returns or 1 anything else much, between the irst day of March and the first day of )ctober each year, but work on the yooks and bianks. Therefore 1 hope hat all tax-payers will do us the avor of making their returns in time. J. ELBERT DAVIS: Auditor Clarendon County. 3UBSRIBE TO THE MANNING TrInME $1.5 PER YEAR.
