The county commissioners today i had under consideration some new rules pertaining to the granting of liquor licenses. These rules provide that application shall be made on the first Monday of the term, that the license must be acted upon at the term, just, prior to the time the previous license expires and must be paid tor one day as ter being granted or it becomes void. The ooun»y attorney is obliged to appear and make car* fj| examination of persons apply ing for license and if thev have violated the law such facts must be broug ht before the commissioners by the attorney. Mr. Join U. Wingate, state tax commissioner, explains the mort gage exemption laws as follows: "Each person who owes a mortgage debt on the first of March and de sires any exemption must tile his own affidavit. Nobody can swear to it but himtelf. A mortgage given jointly by hushand and wife require the affidavit of both to obtain a deduction. An administrator can file no mortgage exemption for the estate. Neither oan one heir make an affidavit for all the heirs. Firms or partnerships and corpora Hons are not entitled to any deduc'ion upon their mortgage indebtedness. One joint owner oan not make affidavit for the benefit of the other joint owners, it being a per •tonal privilege. A guardian can make affidavit for his ward These affidavits must be made out after March Ist and tiled with the county auditor before the first day of May, showing the mortgage indebtedness on the first day of March.”
