cents on the valuation
could easily be made. He
stated that the reduction
might be brought to cents
and the amount still be sufficient
to meet all requirements, if all
whose duty it was to do so
would list their taxes, but as
many were in the county who
failed to list their taxes a
reduction was not advisable.
He also cited some instances of
persons he knew who failed to
list their taxes and as there was
no way to compel them to do so
the was the loser just so
far. This is the argument we the Laud

A complaint is coming from
subscribers in the Southern

gone out from Greenville to any
of those offices. The trouble

been made to have this Government
