JUdges Ambrose anti Duffle of the equity
courts are considering a new plan by which
mortgaged properly may be appraised , which
will In all probability be utlollled when the
next tonal of the district court opens Neither
of the judges Is satlsacd with time way In
which property IH being appraised , allli both
of them , especially Judge ! Ambrose , have
given eXI.ressloll to their tllsalllroval ) from
the bench , III almost every case Where )
mortl3CII i ! property Is III dispute there Is n
great deal of dissatisfaction among the
parties to the suit ahout time nss s mont , and
often limo Judges have fell called upon to
remedy , time mailer ( as far ns they were able .
The great ! objection Is that limo property Is
assessed too low , and whllo the judges will
not go so far as to say ' that there Is any
dishonesty In time appraisals they do aay ,
I1mllhatlcally that the appraisers . who are
allllointell are nut cOllllletent to judge ot time
value of realty
Under the present systelll the appraisers
of property are appolnte l hy time sheriff Time
now plan ( ( will ! lnko both the itch IIImg and the
