' . Yesterday we drew attention to the
“law passed by the last general assem-

on applications for a reduction from
the figures of the assessors .
Surely the town can count on the
good sense of the members of the re-
lief hoard not to listen to such on Oh-
vioualy foolish argument. as a declara-
tion that. the asseusment on a given
piece of property. now In at. its true

queatlonably has been. for the auscu-
‘ 80in to‘ figure propertt at its actual
h‘present valuation. so It is the duty of
the relief board to ace that the actual
