contains charges againBt Mr. Boynton
of everything almost except capital

termed a "fullsome" bill of indict

The real estate In llnncombe coun
ty assessed for taxation exceeds li
nearly a million dollars 979,tU. to
be exact in valuation to that of any
other county In the state, according to
Hmnmm . nm oiled b the State tBX
commission, for the year 108. This
report has just been issued. And
this Is more remarkable from the
fact that liuncombe is not the largest
county, nor has it the largest city
within its boundaries. This state of
facts leads to two conclusions, either
that the people of liuncombe are
more honest in making their assess
m..nt r,.i- luxation, or else the bind is
worth more per square inch than In
any oilier county. The fact mat liun

any other county of the state in vni

countv. the largest In the state, for
example, has 72X.X39 acres of land,
valued at f .' fi3.9xfi, exceeds any oth

leads to the belief that the latter con
