for the coming term I assure yog
I will do all I can to give you a
Assessor Square Deal
Youn sincerely
n Paul Prince County Assessor
To The Voters of Lincoln County
Greetings j
On account cf the voluminous
v:ork at this period of the year!
in the the assessors of office I! rs‘' D°ct°r Bouson s sixty-
will hot be able to see very many I birthday was celebrated
pf you before the coming election j Sunday by all of her children slir-
pn November 7th and I take this bing in on ler ve fllhd
method of getting a little better dinner baskets Everybody had
acquainted with you a C°°d time and a fins dinner
Those present were: C H Boul
I am at present County Asses- SOQ Q p sturdiran Trank Fowl-
sor of this county having been cr Harry Sturdivan PC'atu
elected in the election of 1914 I lirtt Frank Irwin and families
have met a great many tax pay TLfi rbovo was refeiveii too
ers since that time and have tried jIate for t wecks issUo
to treat you all as fair as I would
have liked for you to have teat
ed me under similar circumstanc-
es I have assessed property as
near its fair cash value as I pos-
sibly could and lmve treated ail
alike The rich as well as the
poor arc and should be assessed
according to what they' own I
do not beiieve in showing anyone
any particular favors and my
motto is A Square Deal To All
Each person when assessed
has been given a duplicate assess
meat list so that he can by com
paring it with the rolls in this of-
fice to see if the list on the rolls
i3 as it should b ?
I believe you all know how the
assessor is paid by the county
He gets a commission on the
valuation of the county and the
county does not hire any deputies
for him lie pays all deputy
y hire from the commission aliuw-
v ed by tnr- county
i I have tried to npmt local
men in each township to io tho
assessing and will so far as
possible if elected do so again
‘ " for I Delicve a loed man knows
what property in his neighbor-
hood is worth better than a man
that doe3 not reside there
I have with the help of one
deputy done all of the ofiice work
and I have done a great lot of
tho field work having assessed
two of the townships and’ all of
the towns except a few of the
small ones
i t
I have lne1 n th county for
thff pa5t ‘r'l’I 7 hjvn7
come here in 1890 and have re
aided here every since
I thank you for past favors and
if you elect me for ycur aiaeuacr
