PUBLISH ASSESSMENT ROLL SsAYS NORTH BAY MERCHANT. Every assessment in every town means a regular round of complaints. Even in Timmins, where the people are wellâ€"known for good nature, there is complaint about assessments in general and some assessments in parâ€" ticular. _ If every man thought that he was assessed on the same basis as others similarly situated, there would be less objection. To make the assessâ€" ment equitable seems to be the great problem. Recently, this problem has been exercising the people of North Bay, and many suggested solutions have been advocated. One suggested that has attracted considerable attenâ€" tion was made by a prominent North Bay business man who is also a heavy propertyâ€"holder. _ Commenting _ ediâ€" torially on the proposal, The North Bay Nugget says:â€" j His idea is that if all assessments were made public, there would be a certain amount of eivie pride stirred up among the taxpayers who are now assessed much too low and that they would, of their own accord, suggest an increase while if a ratepayer found, for instance, that his own assessment was $2,000 and a neighbour with a property evry bit as good was assessâ€" ed only $1,200, he would make it his business to see that the neighbour‘s assessment was brought to a par with his own. ‘‘The assessment is the business of everybody,"‘ declared one member of the council the other day. And it is. Every ratepayer should property every bit as good was assessâ€" ments. Of course it can be done now by a search at the town hall but that is something that no citizen likes to ‘do. â€" He does not want to get the name of ‘‘nosing out his neighbour‘s business."" Publish the assessment each year and see what publicity will do. It will cost some money but the man who ‘suggested the plan believes that the increases that will be gained in assessment will pay the additional cost many times over and there will be no more of the whispering that Soâ€" and So is not being assessed at nearly the actual value of hig property while his neigshbour is paying the limit in taxation. The annual church parade of the Timmins L.O.L. will be held on Sunâ€" day, the Twelfth of July. Morning services will be held at the United Church, Schumacher, at 11 a.m. The evening services will be at the Baptist Church, Timmins, at 7 p.m. All members are requested to meet at the LO.L.

CLAIM MURDER SUSPEGT I§ ALLEGED KIDNAPPEA Fire Rangers Taylor and Loucks are claiming the $5,000. reward offerâ€" ed at Schnectady, N. Y., for the arâ€" rest of Harry Fairbanks, charged with the kidnapping of the sixâ€"yearâ€"old son of E. F. W. Alexanderson, promâ€" inent radio engineer and expert. The man giving various names, inâ€" cluding that of William Fairbanks, was taken into custody near Stavert, on the Transeontinental, on May 25th, the fire rangers, Messrs. Taylor and Loucks, making the arrest. The fire rangers turned over their prisonâ€" er, who was apparently in an insane condxtmn, to the Provineial Police, by whom he was charged with the murder of one Wasyl Maximo, Rusâ€" sian watchman at a pumping station near Hearst the previous day. He was carrying an axe which was later identified as belonging to the camp of the dead man with which it is beâ€" lieved the crime was committed. On his person were bits of birch bark on which were written what was evidentâ€" ly instructions for the disposal of a bodv. At the preliminary hearing the prisoner was committed for trial, and the Magistrate gave instructions as to his medical examination so that his mental condition could be noted. The prisoner was taken to North Bay jail from Hearst, to await his trial on the charge of murder. He has been at North Bay since that time. In referring to the case The North Bay Nugget last week said :â€"â€" Inspector Moore, of the Provinceâ€" ial Police, was in North Bay when the claim of the two fire rangers was filed at Albany, N.Y., and was questioned hy The Nugget as to the probability of the prisoner being the Harry Fairbhanks who is wanted in New York State. The inspector stated that the New York case was all news to him as he had heard nothâ€" ing of it until advised . by The Nugâ€" get. "It is hard to get a statement from the prisoner,‘‘ said the inspecâ€" tor, ‘"‘for he is plainly in a befuddled state of mind. He has told me, howâ€" ever, that he was born in Illinois. We have a statement from him which is practically a confession of the crime near Hearst."‘ Reports from Albany stated that fingerprints of the man wanted there were sent to North Bay on Friday but up to this mornuing Inspector Moore had not received them. When they arrive he will check them with the prints of the prisoner and if there is a similarity, he will endeavâ€" or to question the prisoner on the case,. The â€"Alexanderson hboy was kidâ€" napped on April 30th, 1923 and was found several days later in a camp on the Indian River, near Theresa, N.Y., after a search that had arousâ€" ed all of Northern New York State. The General Electric Company, who employed the boy‘s father anno‘unced the big reward for which the two rangers are now making elaim. The Fairbhanks arrest is now exâ€" citing Watertown, Albany, Schenecâ€" tady, and other parts of New York State and there is great interest there in identification of the local prisoner. The Nueget The Nugget also refers to the priâ€" soner as *‘ William Falrbanks. alias Miller, alias George Shores.‘‘ The fire rangers are convinced that he is Harry Fairbanks and that this will mean $5,000.00 to them. However, if rewards are not paid better across the line than in this Province, it won‘t mean much except disappointâ€" ment to all eoncetrned. 0. SEGUIN OPENING SHOP AT No.‘3 CEDAR STREET, N. Mr. 0.

No one else oOME DEALERS RAVE NOT THE PERMIT NEGEGSARN Others Are Falling Down Otherwise in Regard to Luxury Tax Act. Mr. J. T. Nidd, of the Ontario Treasurer‘s Department, was a visiâ€" tor to Timmins last week in connecâ€" tion with the Luxury Tax Act enforee-i ment. It appears that many in Timâ€" mins and district have not been proâ€" perly observing the regulations in reâ€" gard to this Act. Some have been operating soda fountains and coolers without the necessary permits, and there has also been neglect in some cases in reference to the stamps to be used under this Act. The Act apâ€" plies to the sale of beverages, includâ€" ing beer, ale, porter, wines, ginger beer, ginger ale, root beer, cocaâ€"cola, sarsaparilla, mineral waters, aerated waters, etc., etec.. Many of those failâ€" ing to observe the law in regard to thhs Ontario Luxury Tax Act were negligent through lack of knowledge rather than through desire to evade the tax. Mr. Nidd visited, all the dealers in town that he could reach and explained the provisions of the law. Any who were missed, or who are doubtful in the matter should write at once to the Treasurer‘s Deâ€" partment at Toronto, Ont., and secure the necessary permits and stamps, ete. Penalties for infractions of the Act range from $10 to $100 and costs for a first offence and from $25.00 to $200 and costs for subsequent offences. Mr. Nidd explained to all that while there is no desire to penalize anyone unnecessarily in the matter, it is the intention to fully enforce the law in allâ€"eases. Accordingly all should pay special attention to the matter and see that the law is being fully observed in this Luxury Tax Act. Mr. Nidd is very well known and popular throughout the North Land, having been for many years passenâ€" ger conductor on the T. N. 0. Railâ€" way. His long and honourable serâ€" vice to the People‘s Railway is proof that he will serve the Treasury Deâ€" partment honestly and zealously and effectively.
