Judge Fleming's Letter on Texas Taxation 1878 Comanche
Letter from Comanche editorials to Judge Fleming discusses the 1874 constitution tax system, defects in assessment, and proposed reforms. It argues that massive land and personal property escaped taxation, details unrendered acreage from 1872 to 1876, and explains how new provisions aim for equal and uniform taxation, with calls for Board of Equalization to revise assessments countywide and to include unorganized counties.
