TAX ASSESSMENTS SUGGESTION. -A The inequality in the valuation of projierty fur taxation is glaring in State, in county and neighborhood. These unequal valuations work an injustice both ways. The man who pay a taxes on a fair valuation is con tributing to the maintenance of the State more thau his just proportion, while he who pays oil too low a val uation is not my in 2 what in all fairness and equality he should. Under the present law, theoretically, these unequalities can be remedied by the citizens whose property is as sessed at its true value appearing be fore tiie county commissioners and asking that the undervalued bo in creased, or the commissioners them selves can do this. But as a fact neither will do so. The duty is too unpleasant and can only engender feelings of bitterness aud resentment. It must be apparent to all that as long as the present law for the valu ation of property for taxation remains in force we must have these inequal ities in valuation. Probably no sub ject gives the members of the legis lature more concern than the method of valuing property for taxation. Complaints are heard in every State iu the Union. As au improvement over the pres ent system, it is suggested that each citizen value his own property, real and personal, and to induce him to appraise it at its true value, let there be a condition that if any one will pay 33 J or 40 per cent more than the valuation he can do so aud take the property. a t rrovision could no maue to save the property owner from being made the victim of some one who, for one motive or another, might be willing to pay more than the actual value of the property, by having a jury to say whether the appraisement was just and proper. There may be better methods than the one we have suggested but we are not acquainted with them. Unquestionably something should be done to equalize the burden of each taxpayer. Tarboro Southerner.
