Meeting Held in Columbia
T uesday.
Columbia. July 31.—There were
several bunches of millions of dollars
represented at the meeting of the
State Board of Equalization here
today. The board gathered to hear
the complaints of the cotton mills,
cotton oil mills and other corpora
tions that thought the valuation on
their properties had been fixed too
high. The values were frankly and
fully discussed.
The members of the board wanted
light and facts and the representa
tives of the corporations seemed dis
posed to give all possible informa
tion.
The board agreed that it would first
of all hear what the visitors had to
say about the 100 per cent, values as
fixed by the board. The basis of as
sessments is to be fixed Later. For
today the question was what should
be regarded as the 100 per cent, or
full values.
Mr. Wilson brought to the meeting
of the board from the comptrollers’ of
fice long and serious looking sheets.
They bore the summaries of the re
turns on real estate as reported by
the auditors of the various counties.
Three counties strange as it may
appear have not yet sent in their final
figures on real estate. The figures,
here given, do not relate to cotton
mills, railroads, oil mills, personal
nroperty. and other classes of prop
erty that are otherwise taxed.
The figures as made up from the
county auditors abstracts are chock
full of interest. They show a decided
increase in values, not only in real
estate but in all classes of property
and it is altogether a mistake to im
agine that real estate is the only class
of property showing an increase.
The figures presented to the board
are upon the tax returns reported to
the comptroller general and the whole
point is to equalize values and see
that no one countv pays more than
the other; for instance, the returns

The fact that SCHNAPPS
is so widely imitated only proves
that it is the best chew—the standard
flat plug. Other plugs are made to imitate
the size and shape and color of SCHNAPPS
—other tags are made to look like SCHNAPPS
tags—yet there are more pounds of SCHNAPPS
chewed annually than all other similar tobaccos.

SCHNAPPS is mads of only choice selections of well matured, thoroughly cured
leaf, and in factories as clean as the cleanest kitchen, situated in the very heart of the greatest
chewing tobacco growing country, by men of I fe-iong experience in tobacco manu
facturing, and who have directed the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company since 1875.
SCHNAPPS has the pleasing, appetizing aroma which created and popularized
the fondness for chewing. Expert testa prove thot ii requires and takes a smaller
amount of sweetening than any other kind—and has a wholesome, stimulating
and satisfying effect on chewers.
Internal revenue statistics show that SCHNAPPS and other of the
Reynolds brands won enough chewers in one fiscal y_ar to make a net gain
of six and a quarter million pounds, or one-third of the entire increased
consumption in the United States on chewing and smoking tobacco.
