To Be Given Up TI Year By Inter- town Association. - At the adjourned meeting of the In- tertown Dahlia association held last week it was voted to dispense with the annual dahlia exhibition. The show was to have been held Saturday, Sep- teniber 16, in the assembly room of the | city hall. The decision to abandon the exhibi- tion this year, was only reached after a long discussion in which the situa- tion was gone over at length. While some of those present reported their dahlia. gafdens to be tn as good condi- | tion as last year, the majority declared | that their plants were a failure. The rains of the past two days have helped to revive the plants, but as it takes three weeks for a dahlia bud to re- velop into a fully formed flower, the time was said to be too short in which | to expect blooms worthy hibition table, to mature. reason it was finally ‘voted to declare the show off.—Ansonia Sentinel. of the ex Tax Commissioner’s Task. The object of the tax commissioner is to bring about uniform valuations for assessment in all of the towns, and in effect to centralize in his office the general direction of the whole mat- ter. That is the Massachusetts plan. which he has favored publicly. This policy cannot be accomplished with- out local revaluations, and in most towns it imports a change in the basis of valuation.—Hartford Courant. Ir some towns, too, it would necessi- tate a change ‘in the board of assessors and also a stop to the practice of per- mitting them, or any one of them, to run the board of equalization. And to permit the work of revaluation to be done by anyone now serving, or who has served in recent years on either of these boards, would mean a retention of present-day inequalities. Assess- ment for the full market value, as re- quired by law, is not what the fair- minded taxpayer objects to, it is in- equality, and the same law which dic- ion at the full market value also co ands that the tax shall be levied upon a basis equal and fair to all, When the tax commissioner can secure this for us, we would vote him life tenure of office. It involves not only the employment of fair methods but fair men.—. nsonia Sentinel. Condensation.
