tracers were told that unless they put the other property on the tax Rolls next Spring at its True Cash value and and de to the Rolls the Large amount of property that has never been assessed at All that the commission would make new assessment Rolls for every City and township in the counties mentioned it now appears that the state tax commission is not going to wait to see what action local assess ing officers take but will look into taxable values on its own account the plans of the state tax commis Sion Are thus outlined in an article published in the last saturdays is sue of the daily mining journal mar Quette As e h Shields the state tax com missioner predicted would be done when he visited Marquette in the course of his trip to the upper Penin Sula to review the work of expert
