Tho Committee on Kqualization of ‘Taxes met yesterday morning In the Board rooms, corner La Salle and Washington streets, Ther was present Chairman Senne, and Commilsstoners Burling, Wood, lintt, Pur- ington, and PrestdentStewart, of tho County Board, Assessors. Amick, of tho West ‘Town, and Chase, of the North Town, were also presont, . The proverbial certainty of death and taxes Is npparently justly appreciated by Mik AC. MESING, who gave the Committee hs views of what the assessments should be, and how they should be mate. ‘The immedints cause of his com- piaint yesterday was that, tn: reguinting or equalizing the assessinonts, the Committea nad unjustly favored the South. Town, Ile belleved that the property-owners of the North Sido had been assessed too high, and thought that the South Town assessment should be Increased In favor of tho North ‘Yown. Ilo referred to the assessment on the property of the West Site Gas Company, and salt Mr. Billings was reported+to be worth $3,000,000, yct le was nsseased on tho basis of $150,000, Ife claimed that it would not be Just to incrense the North and West Side assessments and decreaso that of tho South Side, So farns he was concerned, an Inerease on the South Sido would not be of nny personal benelit to him, ns his pronatty Interests were In thut sectlon of the city. His property on the South Side was worth 175, iu t had only been valued by the Assessor at $20,000. ft was i fnet that he Inrge property-owners were . nssessed , clear below a falr valuation, while the “Jittle fellaws” were bled Indiseriminitely. Said he, “If you want to do full Justice to tho taxpayers, make the great corporations of the city, which are riways underassessed, pay f tax based on n decent, fair valuation on thelr Immense Interests, and complalnts from the pourer elnsses will cense,”? The Exchangs Block, at tho corner of Washington and Clark streets, was, lie sald, the best corner in tho city, and in his opinion. would bring under the hammer $500,000, Ho would like to know what the assessment was on that property, ASSESSOR AMICK then addressed the Committee, claiming that the West ‘Town nssessment ag Toparte was ominently a just and fair one. Ilis figures were within $100,000 of what the Committee Inst year reported: the valuation should be, and this after the Committes had spent five weeks in invest! gating, the Assessor’s books, He was at 9 loss to understand, he having re- turned a larger agsessment. than lind been recommended 8 Committes, why the Committee should now want to increase the assessment, lio believed tho figures ag sub- ailtted by him were as near rigitt as tt was possibile to inake them, and he therefore oped no change would be made, ASHESSOIt CILASY, of the North ‘Town, then took the floor, and proceeded to defend the Yalrness of.hls as- sessment, Ife clalined that during the past five yenrs the North ‘Town had been assessed. higher in proportion than elther of the other towns, ‘This year’s assessinent was based upon a valuation of one-third of the cash sviluc of the property. In making tho assess- ment last year he found that, taking as a basis the way tho other towns wero assessed, his figures were excessive, and he hind therefore mado this yeur’s ossessmonts 30 percene legs than the figures of Jest vents Last year the South sido ‘was ‘nssessed $0,- 000,000 fess than the assessment of 1878, and this valuation met the approval of the whole Board, ‘This year the nsyessment of the North ‘Town had been lowered $2,000,000 below that of 187% | Mr. Chase claimed that whit was just in one case was also fair In tho other, nnd he hoped the assessment. as re- turned would stand, belleving, as ho did, that it had been honestly made, and: thaé the yalues were a8 nearly equitable as could be arrived 1 the arrival of ‘South-Side-As- aAwalll sessor Drake, the Committes then adjouriied. for lunch; , : .
