Show THE COUNTY TAXES. There is a great deal of complaint in regard to the high valuation that has been placed upon property by the county coun-ty assessor, and tho politicians of the l'cople's party are endeavoring to make people believe that the Liberals are responsible re-sponsible for it. The county government govern-ment is in the control of the People's party. No one except tho People's party has anything to do with the assessing as-sessing of property and the levyiug of county taxes. Tho rate of taxation is fixed by tho board of selectmen, who are all. with one exception, members of the People's party. The county assessment as-sessment is made by the county assessor, Jesse W. Fox, whom the People's party elected to ollice. Tho city, which is under Liberal government, has nothing whatever to do with the county taxes. |
