Show Evans's Taxes. Yesterday some one asked Mr. Win. Evans, the Dcmocracic uomlnco for the council in tho Second ward, how the 'Assessor had treated him this year, and by tho way of reply ho pulled pull-ed out two tax receipts. One' was for 1902 and notified him that the taxes tax-es due on 81 acres, of land owned by him amoutcd to $10.12, tlic other was the notice sent this year for tho same piece of land and tho amount of tax demanded by It was $23.09. Mr.Evans pnrchasod tho property a llttlo more than a year ago for $350. Journal, October 24, 1903. In 1902; tho 81 acies referred to was assessed to Anna 11. Phillips at $340 and the taxes amounted to $10.12. In 1903 the same property Is assessed.toW. Evaus at $300, plus 10 per cent raise by the State Hoard, making a total value of $330, tho taxes, Including the Increase In-crease of 3.1-20 mills In Logan school levy come to $10.01, this year instead of $23, or moro than double, as shown In the Journal. Mh. Wsi. Evans has nkvfu paid taxks in cachk countv, on personal property or real estate, so far as the assessment rolls shows, but If he pays his taxes this year, lie wljl pay but 79 cknts extra oft that 8J acres. This Is fr5m tho books of thecounty Treasurer Treas-urer and shows the deliberate fabrication fabri-cation of "the only paper printed In Cache county." Why should tho only say that Mr. Evans' taxes on 8 acres of land would be $23.99 when In truth It Is but $10.91 an Increase of 79 cents over 1902V Only for political capital voters, and to mislead mis-lead you. It is true that Mr. Evans will pay $23.09 taxes this year, if ho pays 'up, but It Is on that land plus his pkh- fcONAL PltOl'i'.KTV. Tills "tllO Olll" 110 doubt kohoot t,o mention.
