Real Estate Men Do Not Agree With Assessor Fish. WHY THE PRESENT MODE OF ASSESSMENT I8 JUST AND FsIR—PROPEBTY ONLY WORTH WHAT IT WILL BRING AT A FORCED SALE—NO BEASON TO INCREASE TAXATION. The instructions issued by Assessor Fish to the assessors, who will soon begin the triennial assessment of property, taken in connection with the suggestions in his annnal report, have given rise to the opinion that the taxes are to be increased. A Sram reporter talked with a number of citizens who are familiar with prop- h- | transfer or lien of judgment, &c. erty values, and their views in relation to the proper basis for taxation assessment are given below. ‘VIEWS OF MR. JOHN JOY EDSON. The secretary of the Equitable building asso- ciation, Mr. John Joy Edson, said: “As I un- derstand it the assessor proposes to interpret the law to mean that Property shall be assessed at its fall current market Mpangtog, Price at which it is held. That to say, one-third more than the present te, which is, as a rule, in my opinion, the true value in money. ‘The true value of real estate is that which it will bring in any financial condition of the coun’ Money-losning institutions, you well kuow, loan on sbout two-thirds of the current market value atthe time of the loan. The amount loaned really indicates the true money value placed upon it by the lenders. For example, a piece of property to- day may be valued in the present market rating at €4,000. A loan could be secured on it of | about $2,600 or $2,700. This m: in is con- | sidered ceamer 4 because in case the property | should be forced’ to a sale it might not bring more than the amount of the loan. e mar- gin is calculated to cover the effect of fluctua- tions in values, and represents the estimated value of the property in depressed times. If the assessment {s greater this valuation in depressed times, which occurs every four years, the owner of the property would be ex- cessively taxed. There'is 1 is no doubt a INEQUALITIES IN ASSESSMENTS exist both in city property and suburban. 1 have knownof property in two different sec- tions of the city where the market value was the District assessment wide! Inequalities should be ould be remedied, but it has nothing to do with the question of the assessable value of inequali- proved and penne eT by all. ie recomtmendatioos of the as ject in his annual that for several years Congress has ne ia bake Sas le nee, ‘un un- The increase of taxation, Mr. dis- Vint, Ba Weiss, _—_ reporter that the Heved it had been Ferber spon the bes but what actual owner, x One method of sacer the a it upon a two-thirds valuation of agsevomen: that value.

Orrice oF THE ot ae OF TRE Distaict or Cotumsta, March 12, 1889. To the Editor of the Evzxrxe Sran: I do not object to criticism of ‘any act of mine, whether personal or official, but Iam entitled to have all matters of fact affecting my official conduct correctly known. Accordingly I beg | ¢: to call your attention to the editorial in Mon- day’s Stan imputing blame to me in connection with the — alienage of one of the Dis- trict’s grantors in the recent purchases of school sites, &c. In that editorial it is said that I tes- tified in the recent investigation ‘that in most cases (I] made an in ual investigation as to whether the middleman’s title was good and un- incumbered.” A reference to my testimony as reported will show that in speaking of my part in the matter I in no instance segregated class of “middlemen” from the general trary, Thin distinctly reported a having aid , Lam distinctly reported as ha that “as to the sppoars pearance of middlemen or foe oe of that kind, such “reece were not to bet Religie scones foemtenn he were sim) ed to report uj e Vali or plete the sufficiency on ineufteloncy of of ween te person conyeying tc the Oo process, from beginning to end, of ac- Bins. title to a school-site was fally explained by the testimony of all the witnesses having knowledge in 2 and was ocularly demonstrated to the committee by the abstracts of title and the deeds, with their respective an- dorsements, which were freely passed from hand to hand throughout the investigation. That process was as follows: The intendin; vendor was required to furnish an abstract the title to the property offered by him, and in every case butone (excepted for @ special rea- son). such abstract was required to come from one of gts two title insurance companies. The having been delivered to the Commis- pment was referred by them to our office and was there examined. the cases coming un- der my notice, if the title company reported the title good I accepted such report by endors-. ing my approval = it, but if the abstract sbowed any matter out of the ordinary I made & personal ‘examination of that before si — approval. In all cases I satisfied my- that no change in the — whether by id been made between the date of the al ¢t and that of the proposed transfer to the District, and if any grantee ap; ed between those dates, as in the case of the 9th precinct station house, I of course made an individual investigation as to time and reported accordingly. Now it happens that, according to the prac- tice thus described, it did not become neces- sary for me to investigate Mr. Taylor, the mid- dieman in the case pf the school site on 5th street southeast, for that case the abstract was prepared by the Real Estate Title Insur- | ance company and was brought down through the transfer to Mr. Taylor, in whom the com- pany reported the title good. I relied ‘on thi report, and in the nature of things could not | have done otherwise. A re-examination of the titles, as distinguished from the abstracts, | would in every case have involved a labor of | several days; labor simply impossible in view of the daily demands upon our office and our limited force. If our office could have done this work the exacting of the abstracts would | have been both unnecessary and unreasonable. And as to the matter of alienage, I cannot agree with the ‘well-known expert in real- estate law” that the alien land act operates a forfeiture ipso facto ona conveyance to an alien, In Fy ecaoee and that of others better quali- fied than myself, this act merely restores an alien's former disability to hold land, and | requires some action of government to work a forfeiture, All residents are presumed to be citizens, and the fact of alienage does not appear from a man’s name or from the land records, If the act operates a forfeiture ipso facto it will be necessary in evary case to ascer- tain the character as to citizenship of all through whom s title bas come since the | passage of the act. How can this be done? Is e alien’s word to be taken that he is a citizen, native or naturalized? If not, what is to be the proof in the case of an unnaturalized alien? and in the case of @ naturalized alien who is to identify him as the one named in a given certificate of naturalization, if such. be pro- duced. especially here where our residents have come from all parts of the country? Such considerations ag these, taken in con- nection with the lan of the act, as con- strued in accordan most familiar prin- ciples, convince me and those who think with me that if the title to land once passes out of an alien before proceedings for forfeiture shall have been begun, the liability for forfeiture under the act ceases, and the title becomes good in the grantee. Any other construction would render ev every innocent holder, even “a thousand years from sel tf ak expert puts it, liable to have his felted. Alaw that would work suc! a eat would be worse than an so it would be a monstrosity. yy Henny E. hg Ase’t Att'y D.C. eerie SUNDAY BARS.

There is considerable ita- tion, not in the direction of recommending candidates ‘c place, but in that of question- ing to what extent the President will of his own motive think of the people of the District and act toward them in the matter of selecting for office the men with whom they are to have the relations that are most jealously guarded in the states, Independent of the judges and the Commissioners, there are but a few local offices in the gift of the President. An argument ad hominem might be forcib) ———- to him and those who are demanding to be foisted upon this helpless people. It is this: How would the New Yorkers or Indianians or Ohio- or the people of any other state, receive, if the laws permitted the outrage, a sheriff, a recorder of deeds or register of wills from | people of the District, one who is a stranger, a man having Soar interests nor acquaintance among the f Teel theory and example eliminates wp oo th a za the es: It is said the marshalship from the purely local offices, because it has social duties connecting the in- cumbent closely with the Executive. This is not true. There is nothing in the Revised Statutes to this effect, and the only ground for | the statement is the hope of advancing some excuse to overslough the District. The mar- | shal under the presidency of Gen. William | Henry Harrison was a District man—Hunter, | of Alexandria, who occupied the position under Jackson and Van Baren. Wallach under Gen. Taylor, Hoover under Gen. Pierce and Selden | under Buchanan, all were District men. But when Mr. Lincoln, owing to the abnormal con- dition of affairs then existing, appointed Ward Lamon to the place he had no idea of estab- | lishing a precedent, which his successors fol- lowed, Mr. Hayes appointing Fred. Douglass, whom Mr. Garfield very promptly transferred to another office in order to provide for Henry, | of Ohio, whom McMichael succeeded under | Arthur. ‘On Mr. McMichael’s retirement Mr, | Cleveland returned to the old rule of the old | Presidents aud appointed a local man.

The Philadelphia Enquirer to-day says that steps are about being taken bya number of Phila- delphia families to protect their alleged rights in the property known as the Potomacriver flate and incidentally to the whole river front and wharfage of thecapitalcity. Among the familjés | interested are the Morris’, Tilghman's, Mc. lister’s, Young’s, Brooke’ ‘sand lbach's, and their interest is based either upon direct descent from Notley Young or intermarriage in the Young family, which in the last century owned much of the property along the Washington river front. It is asserted that the Young family has claims to a ( Seoag deal of land in the District said to have nm improp- erly couveyed, the claims covering, among other things, th und on which the Center market stands. The claims which it is now talked of pressing cover eats roperty and the reclaimed flats. In June, 1886, upon pre by the government an order wasmade by Judge James, directing all per- sons having claims upon this land to appear on or before January 3, 1887, or eae to be forever barred from 'maintainin ht or title.
