Clark Bank Stock Assessment Under Scrutiny by County Board
The county board of equalization opened an investigation into the Clark bank assessment raised to 1,518,000 by Assessor Sullivan. Deputy Assessor Russell testified the bank failed to return its solvent credits. Cashier Johnston said a return was voluntary. The board will resume today and may strike out the increase if the bank refused to make a return and Sullivan’s assessment is deemed arbitrary. The board also sent a notice to Montanaire Purchasing Company to show cause why its 1903 net proceeds of mines assessment should not be increased for tax avoidance.
