The Grass Valley Poll Tax.
It was atated in these columns
ssterday thatex-officio poll tax.colPeters of Grass
Valley tewnship had paid into the
county but $673, whereas the amount
been put at $1,$74.39. Thus he is entitled to a
somewhat larger amount, of credit .
rad to, still it cannot be claimed that
tha showing is sash a one as ought
The actual amount returned by G. S. S, Getchell, collector for Nevada township, is $1,806.30, ora little over two-ninths more
than Peters has turned over. ‘This
should not be, because Grass Valley
has heretofore always yielded
a larger revenue from poll tax re‘evipts than Nevada, A close collection in the former ¢: ywnship ought to .
realizo at least $2,009, judging from .
the exparience of past years. There .
is one thing that Mr. , Peterg is to be
commenced for; though, and thatis
for tha steategy he exercised in putting a numberof dead-beat Chinamen at work on the roads, and thus
aqueezad their tax from them.
