Show TREASURER IS BEING UNJUSTLY CRITICISED There seems to bo a disposition on tho part of tho shifty Democratic administration ad-ministration In tho Cncho County court houso to saddle off on Treasurer Treasur-er Gcorgo S. Dairies, tho rcspoii3l billty for tho muddlo which the lis scssor nnd tho commissioners havo gotten Into on account of tho faulty work of field assessors which has brought nbout all kinds of trouble tr6m land owners and property own era who havo been ovpr assessed, under un-der nsscsscd, and some not nssessed nt all. Tho Logan postmaster Is criticising criticis-ing tho treasurer for tho way tho no. ttces havo been mailed out and thoso close to tho situation claim that tho postmaster Is doing for political reasons, rea-sons, but Trensurcr Dalnes seems to ho Canal to tho occasion and when It really dawns upon tho postmaster nnd his legion of followers that tho Democratic assessor and his assistants assist-ants aro at fault a solar plexus will bo delivered that will not loso Its sting for somo time to come. It appears that tho county assessor assess-or In making up his tax rolls overlooked over-looked tlw fact that It was his legal duty to have his field men obtnln tho street address of all persons assessed assess-ed with property. And as n consequence conse-quence the mall carriers In Logan City undjr tho direction of tho postmaster post-master aro unablo to locate' the addresses ad-dresses of tho citizens of the community com-munity with tho plain address Logau City, on tho envelope. While Mr. Dalnes sent out tho notices, no-tices, they hnvo been Bent out to thoso persons listed by tho assessor and becauso tho assessor has not dono his duty, It Is no fault of tho treasurer's office, although a strained effort Is being made by tho postmaster postmast-er and the other court houso officials to fix tho responsibility on him. |
