The reporter lias often been!
"old timers" tslk of the low taxes as
sessed and collcctcd before the civil
war in this county, ay.l lias general,
ly thought there ? must bo some
ratstnfrc about^hd great difference
alleged to extat between then sro
now. During the past week we
ran across tiie two rooeipts repro
duced below as nearly aa type will
permit :
RECEIVED of Wm Ri.ack
< ? Dollars and
forty-eight 1-2 Cents, on aocotiut oi
bis General and District Tax, for
year 1882.
A. Wiuiam?, T. C.
The other was issued to the same
person on the same property five
years later and reads:
RECEIVED v of Wm. Ri.ack
-mm ? - ? -Dollars and
50 1-2 Cents, on account of his
General' tvnd District Tax, for the
year 1837.
C. O, Dak ik r., T. C.
We have the original receipts in
our possession. The property was
a traot of something over four huo
dred acres of land, at present ownsd
by W, . J(. Jackson, O. R. Spencer,
and p. M, Hall. It will be seen
tb&t If the }aijd w*s worth no wore
than a dollar an sere, tne taxes
collected foT all purposes^amounted
to a fraction more than one mill
In late yeacti while values have,
increased, the rate bat increase^
enormously. Are we getting pro*
