REPORT SHOWS A NEAT INCREASE IN TAX RETURNS. (Continued from Page 1.) poll, school or business tax. i assailed and equalised wild lands at $2.00 per a-ra In the most elevated parts of the county while In the lower sections le. swamp lands e based our values at $1.60 per acre. m With reference to our banking in stitutions beg to say that we were somewhat puzzled at one time equalizing these returns and com municated with the boards of Chat ham. Fulton and several other coun ties and found that they were accept ing returns on the same basis as made by like institutions in our county, le. 60 per cent of the capital, surplus and undivided profits. In equalizing tbe property values generally we secured the services of one of the best informed farmers, in our judgment, from each district to co-operate and work with us in equalizing values In such district which we believe materially aided In satisfactorily explaining to the tax payer the equity of our various crit icisms. With reference to our tax discov erer beg to say that this position was accepted by Mr. D. F. Arthur, but after be had Investigated the re cords, bis resignation was tendered with the statement that he could not realize sufficient revenue from the small yield of his investigations warrant his continuing. Our board will co-operate with the Tax Receiver in taking 1916 returns and cutHn* tor him various sugges tions that have come to us which will facilitate our work very mate rially in the future. Each return should show the absolute mailing ad dress of such tax payer. The return should show number of acres tualiy under cultivation and descrip tion of building and improvements thereon. The above suggestions very Important and these, together with some minor details in receiving returns, we believe will facilitate the work of the board very materially. We arc «very much gratified to be able to state that with the number of returns criticised that It was not necessary to arbitrate one complaint. After thoroughly discussing the situ ation with each tax payer that ap peared before us, with but one or two exceptions, he left our office thoroughly satisfied. We are also glad to be able make the statement that the returns generally measure up very satisfac torily a* tp values, and especially so In the county districts. Due to the zealous-work of our very capable Tax CoUpetor we believe that there but little taxable property shown on.the digest Mr*, J. W, Adams and Miss Myrtls Adams left today for Valdosta, where they will be the guests of Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Myrlck. LEGAL ADVERTISEMENTS. To the People of the Eleventh Con gressional District: I hereby announce my candidacy for the Democratic nomination for the office of representative in tbe Sixty-Fourth Congress of the United States, from the Eleventh Congres sional District of Georgia, subject to tbo primary to be held on August 19th. In making this announcement I do not forget tbe responsibility which rests upon me in aspiring to the most important office within the gift of the people of the district l realize that if I am elected, the peo ple of this district will have confer red upon me the highest honor In their power, and placed upon me the burden of performing grave and im portant duties. I do not propose in this announce ment to set out a detailed statement of the platform upon which I base my candidacy, but I deem it proper to make a brief reference to some of the things I have advocated for years, and which will later be incorporated in my formal platform. I endorse the Democratic admin istration, and favor the principles as set forth In the Democratic platform adopted at Baltimore in 1912. I favor the extension of the rural free delivery, with an increase in the pay of its carriers. I favor the extension of the par cels post, thus providing for the far mer more adequate service, and quick communication with the daily markets. I favor government aid in building public roads in every county. This Is something which will greatly ben efit the farmers, and they are Justly entitled to it , I also favor and would most earn estly advocate, national aid in drain ing ard reclaiming the low lands of the State, thereby adding millions of dollars to the wealth, and much to the health of the citizens through out Georgia, and euj\«ctfttty of th® Eleventh district I am in favor of a rural credit system, to be worked out in some way by the Government, which will enable the farmer to realize more readily on his collateral, either through the National Banka, or through -some other system. Inter est on money in this country is grad ually getting higher. Even the companies engaged in making loans on farm lands have increased their Interest rates within the past year. An examination of the lists of the voters of thq Eleventh District dis closes the fact that over seventy-fire per cent of tbe white voters therein are engaged In farming . I therefore, feel that they are entitled to every consideration possible at the hands of the man who represents them, i have been a farmer all my life, and farming is my chief occupation. i,_ am, therefore, Jn position to know thejl needs of the farmer . All other laborers, not engaged di rectly in farming, will find in me as their congressman, If elected, one who will always stand ready to aid and assist them in anything which will tend to better their condition. My work as a railroad promoter and builder, though only in a small way, has convinced me as nothing else could have done, the very im portant position railroad conduc tors, engineers, firemen, flagmen, and all railroad employes hold'with the public. Not only do these men have to safeguard and protect prop erty worth millions of dollars, but they have imposed upon them a still greater duty, that of'protecting the lives of the traveling public. This being the case I most heartily pledge to them my most loyal sup port, when an opportunity offers,or Just demand Is made by them upon e. In announcing these principles I desire to emphasize the fact that the 7,'calth of tul» country largely hinges on the producers and originators, whether engaged in tilling the soil, or in manufacturing. All other vo cations depend largely upon these industries, and prosper when these industries prosper. My campaign will be conducted l a high and honorable plane, and I earnestly solicit the support and vote of every qualified white voter Id the District Yours respectfully, , J. A. J. HENDERSON.
