As mentioned in a recent issue of the Guardian

the assessors for the province have been appointed as per list published in the last issue of the Royal Gazette. We note however that the :Board of As- sessors” has not yet been appointed. The act, sec-

“it shall be lawful for the Lieutenant Gov-

ernor in Council to create a Board of Assessors for the purpose of consulting and deciding upon the best methods to obtain correct and equit- able assessments throughout the province and for any other business connected with the dis- charge of their duties; and also from time to. time to appoint assessors and deputy assessors, collectors and deputy collectors for the districts created; also to prescribe regulations for gov- '

of their respective duties.”

Whether,the assessors can function without the

Board is not provided for in' the act and we may as- sume eithei' that the said Board was originally in- tended to be purely ornamental or a sort of super- numerary receptacle for “deserving Liberals” not otherwise provided for. The act reads as if this Board were necessaryto legalize the actions of the .assessors but it would appear that the latter have been ‘finstructed” and, having gone forth with the “live coal from off the altar,” are not subject tt. Boards or acts or other legal restrictions.

Although, not specified in the act we were in-

formed some time ago by the Patriot that in order that the people should have absolute confidence in the integrity, impartialitty and wisdom of the assess# ors the government .had decided to appoint 'three assessors .for each electoral district, two of whom ‘should be Liberals and one a Conservative. We pre-' sume this arrangement has been carried outwith the government’s usual strict adherence to promises.

We note that in the Charlottetown and Royalty

district there .is an apparent digression, only two appointees being named, Mr. John H. Pierce, assess- or, and Mr. Benjamin Rogers, deputy assessor, the former, we presume being the one Consel'vative and Mr. Rogers the two Liberals.

In the other districts-three names are given, and

it will be assumed that the political distinctions have been adhered to as nearly as possible in this age of unsettled political creeds. -.

Now that the “assessors and deputy assessors"

are in the open when may we look for the “collectors and the deputy collectors” provided for in the act? -The assessors and the deputy assessors. have no doubt been around with the scythe and mowed down the tax crop; is it not time that the “collectois and dep- uty collectors" who are to garner it were on the job?

The peculiar reticence and concealment and

back door whispering in connection with the newt taxation have set the peoples’ nerves on edge. For months every other man seen on -the road was sup-
