as fixed by- tha commissioners for the'
year 1884, and continued for the pros

cents instead of fifteen as last year. As
we have said elsewhere, this valuation
cannot be binding on the tax-payer be
cause he haa to swear to the true value
himself. .Take the two items peanuts
and pork in this list and it will be found
that they are valued at more than they
actually ooet iu market. If a farmer
brings peanuts to market he cannot get
a dollar per bushel, and he. can buy
pork for less than fifteen dollars. There
are but few men who would like to
swear that their property is worth more
than they can actually get for it for the
sake of paying more taxes;

The Valuatlou of Personal Property
for Taxation.
Cathabink Lake, N. C, )
May 20tb, 1885. f
Editor Journal: As the time for list
in it- Dronertv for taxations is drawine
nigh, perhaps a few thoughts aa to the
valuation of personal property might be
some advantage in equalizing the bur
dens of taxation. I see in the proceed
ings of the board of county commission
ers of Jones county, as published in
your paper, of the 14th inst, that the
basis of valuation or personal property
for 1884 was adopted tor 1885, except aa
to wool, which was reduced to ten
eents per pound, etc. I don't remember
what the basis of 1884 was, but I do re-q
member that I was Struck,, from the
reading of it at the time that it was re-
markably low, not only on wool bot on
all other species of personal property.
Indeed, I can't see where they get the
authority to fix a valuation upon tha
property of their constituents for taxa
tion, and I hope you will republish it in'
youc next issuo. I did not object to
their valuations at that time, because
there were no taxes levied last year ex
cept county taxes, and if by that valua
tion they could raise revenue sufficient
to defray the expenses of their county
government all was well. But with' all
respect to said Board, 1 do object to that
basis ' for the present year. 1st, because
section .11 of the mschinery act says
that the tax-payer shall file with the
list-taker, on a blank to be furnished.
etc., a verified statement of all the prop
erty of every kind and description
owned by him, and shall also swear to
the true value of his property, and ohoses
in action, except land, which oath shall
be in the following form, to wit: I,. ,
do solemnly swear (or affirm) that the
list furnished by me contains a true and
accurate list of all property which by
law I am required to list for taxation,
and that the value affixed thereon by
me is a true valuation of the same ac
cording to my best knowledge, informa
tion and belief, so help me God.
,. 2d.. Because under that oath I shall
be' compelled to affix, the valuation ot
my wool at least at 15 cents, or at what
ever the market price is on the 1st day
of June next. And upon all other per
sonal property in-like manner or pro
portion. And - .- v. tt 1
8d. Beoause for the' present year, the
State levies 20 cents on every one hun
dred dollars' worth of property, And
if wool is valued at 10 cents in. Jones
and 16 cents in Onslow, then Onslow
pays 50 per Cent, more tax to the State
on the same amount of wool than Jones,
and the same on all other property vaN
ued in like manner. Any one who will
take the trouble to examine the several
machinery acta passed by the Legisla
ture for the last twelve years, will see
how - hard the members of that body
have labored to equalize the burdens of
taxation. They have at last come to
the conclusion tnatcne oestrnode is to
require the tax-payer to affix1 tha valu
ation of his personal property himself.
on oath, which mode I think is a good
one--. And the only obstacle now in the
wav is to make him swear to the truth.
or indict him for perjury.-
if you think the above nmts win assist
in any way to (he equalising of taxation
please give an insertion in. yoas paper.
Taxr Payer, i
Are any members of your f amily thus
afflicted: Have they scrofulous swell

scrofulous sores or ulcers? If so, and
it should be neglected, the peculiar
taint; or poison, may deposit itself ia
the substance of the lungs, producing
consumption. Look well to tne condi
tion of your family, and if thus afflict
ed, give the proper remedy without de
lay. Buy that which makes absolute
cures inthe shortest space of time. Tha
