Ohio Tax Inquisitor Law and its dubious reach in 19th century
The excerpt discusses Ohio's tax inquisition statute beginning in 1861 and amended through 1893, outlining how the auditor could add omitted personal property to the tax duplicate. It presents a hypothetical case of John Doe and Richard Roe to show punitive calculations under section 2781 Revised Statutes, and critiques the system as inefficient and corrupt. It notes fees for inquisitors and officials, and mentions Democratic endorsements of constitutional amendments in 1903.
