Show A commendable JOB our board ot of county commissioners are to be commended tor for their efforts this week to equalize property assessments throughout the coun ty spending several days in session here for or that purpose the statute provides that they shall sit as a board ot of equalization in june to hear objections or protests to assessments and to equalize the property assessments io bof the county little equalizing has been attempted however except as prompted by an occasional cas ional inquiry or complaint from a taxpayer tor for several years arid and as a result there has been opportunity for many inequalities to have crept in it they the zi credit Is largely due to the assessor an effort to equalize now has de aided advantages over waiting until june among which are that the commissioners have more time to devote to it and that any change they make now will appear on the assessment rolls as original entries rather than changed figures which always smear up the record more or less |
