peal of 23: ratepayers ;of: thevii}age
of Blyth ` in the County. of :Huron a.
•gainst'their assessment. •�
'The ''menbers . of Blyth council
wished 'to' boost the '•: assessment of-
the,village for .1928 and thus lower,'
the•,.tax rate: They asked; the assessor
for' 1927. to meet the council and
talk oyer the• situati•n: He ;refused
to ?bg! •a• party to the consultation as
would,
he, considered .;it' woo, be 'interferin g
With,the judgment of property values.
°' The council ' appointed ' a .', new as-
,lessor for 1928,' and in January 1928,
a meeting of the council was called
b '.the .Clerk: 'Of :•the'` nunici ality :.at
Y. p
which the :new assessor I.ttended. All,
the different assessments were gone
over and in a number of -cases pencils
•marks •• on the changes proposed were
madeon 'the assessment r of 19.27'
Which theyoll had before'thern. The new,
assessor, ;under .oath, states that • he
,dict not :take the `. settled:
.upon, as; •absolute, but Used..his. own'
jiidgment, stating that ; he 1}.ved ' in
the `.village for a' great many. years.
and knew all •the properties:: and. their
valttes and that '.hes did' not, discuss.
the” valnes of any propertied• or make'
the enquires suggested :by the statute
or personally inspected the.pro,perties.
unless when 'he 'went around with the
final 'notice of ,assessment, and then
in 'very few cases. ' '
Qver • 60; .,Of 'the ratepayers whose
assessment: had been.. increased ` ap-
neared : at the Court of Revision, and
as .03 of these were•.dissatisfied With.
the decision Of the ; Council, 'they ap-
pealed to''the `.county judge. The' ass-:
essor of Wingh'ani was 'brought in as
