XZ A. LONDON. Editor.
Th:; Legislature at its approach
ing session should by all means
provide a bettor anl more just
revenue and machinery act. Every
, : .11! - t and fair minded man
must aari.ii mat .dl our revenue
aud machinery act cau be, and
oulit to be, improved and re
formed. And this has been the
case for many years.
We are pleased to note that
Tr -.er Worth, in his r.et an-,
linal report, will call special at
teutiou to tills-- important matter
and insist upon "a reformation in
the maimer of listing the property j
of the State for taxation." He1
recommends that the next Legis
lature appoint a board of tax com
missioners, w'.iuse duh it shall be
to get up a tew revenue and nia
chi'iery act. This is a most tune-;
ly recommendation and we earn
estly urge that it be effectively
carried out. This board of tax ;
commissioners should not be ap- '
pointed to report to somo succeed
ing Lnris!atnre, but should report
1 1 :iie Legislature this winter, so ;
that the present Legislature may I
at once enact the proposed new J
revenue and machinery act.
This important matter has al
re.l ly been too lonj,' delayed ami
s' liihl not be delayed two years
.. i. is by no means any- '
thing new. The Legislature of,
1S;-.j enacted a law (chapter SMi j
.ir.thonimr aud instructim; the
i;. . ernor "to appoiut three coin-1
pet.""'1 ion as tax commissioners, '
who.e duty it shall be to tlmr
. uglily investigate the subject of-
taxatiou, and report a bill for list
lie.', assessing,
equalization and
ci'lle' tioli of taxes.". The (!ov
