Hearing on the suit brought by P. O. Silvagni against Carbon county for $504 paid as taxes on an increased property valuation was postponed in district court Monday until February 14. While the action involves a Comparatively small amount, the case is regarded as a very Important one Inasmuch as it will be a legal test of the real estate valuation conducted in Carbon county two years ago. Mr. Silvagni claims that in 1981, the revaluation board increased the assessment of improvements on his real estate from $22,000 to $32,000. He alleges that this was done after the 1981 valuation on Improvements had already been fixed at $32,000. Allegations of the complaint further state that the county's employ ment of the revaluation board was unlawful. ' "According to Mr. Silvagni, the improvements on his property had been at $22,000 for 10 years prior to the revaluation, and that inasmuch as no improvements had been made in 1931, there was no reason for increasing the assessment He states that he paid the Increased taxes under protest, an allegation which is denied in the answer filed by the county. Before taking legal action, Mr. Silvagni requested the county commissioners, when they sat as a board of equalization, to fix the assessment at its old figure, but the claim was denied. .According to County Assessor Silas Rowley, the revaluation program .was conducted to equalise assess meats, and Mr. Silvagnis property was increased to its proper valua- tton. The board which revalued all real estate in the county consisted of A. J. Lee, Carl Nyman and Glen Ballinger. Carbon was the first county in the state to complete the property revaluation, and other counties are awaiting withconsiderable interest the results of, Mr. Sllvagnis suit - ' Price during totaled 28- -' to a report' k by Henry Flit weather Six in December, and plowing month.

The annuls progressing very satisfactorily and will be completed by the first of March, Mr. Rowley said. A fine attitude of cooperation Is being shown by the citizens when they are assessed, and deputies in the various mining camps are nearly finished with collection of personaal property taxes, and several have checked in. However, the collections are less than the previous year. The assessment of business houses is also nearly finished. Assessment of form lands is approximately 75 per cent completed and livestock work Is almost cleared up with the exception' of grazing land certificates. According to Mr. Row-le- y, sheepmen who summer their flocks in Carbon county are required to pay taxes In proportion to the length of time the herds are kept here. The owners are assessed In the county where their sheep are located when the valuations are fixed, and that county remits the necessary foe to the Carbon assessor. If the sheepmen have no certificate' of ment from any other county, they are assessed here for the full year. Between 35,000 and 40,000 sheep summer In Carbon county, Mr. Rowley is now checking on the valuation of mines, railroads and the other public utilities. He will file- a report with the state tax commission on or before March 6, and the official assessment will be decided by the commission. However, there will be very little change in the valuation recommended by Mr. RoMey and that fixed by the state tax body. . Railroads will be taxed on that portion of the line which operktes In Carbon county. The valuation of Carbon county in 1982 was slightly over $25,300,000.

In addition to these organizations, representatives attended from the Community church and foe Prim Temperance society. Those at the meeting pledged, by resolution, their incessant efforts to uphold and perpetuate the law. Speakers were Rev. J. H MacRill, pastor of foe Community church; Bishop George Jorgensen, L. D.

He pointed out that the eighteenth amendment was passed fay foe common consent at foe people, but that foe publics attitude apparently had changed, fit answer to this, Rev. MacRill stated that the principle of the law was correct and as enduring as the principles of the Ten Commandments, which still stand, although the attitude of many people toward them has changed. Mrs. West presented a statistical discussion, showing that since prohibition the number of establishments for curing drunkenness had been reduced from 98 to 12. She also brought out that the amount of insur-an-m written had increased by 63 billion dollars, that the attendance in high school and colleges had increased by 150 per cent and 800 per cent, respectively, and that governmental income had increased. She did not claim that the gains were to prohibition alone, but acknowledged the fact that other agencies had contributed. Bishop Jorgensen spoke on the evils of the old saloon, emphatically declaring that general conditions had been bettered greatly since the prohibition amendment went Into effect. . - ' .
