which taxes for the ensuing fiscal year shall be assessed and
levied; provided, that this provision shall not apply to prop-
erty liable to taxation in Baltimore County which may have
escaped taxation or which may have been omitted in the regu-
lar course of valuation, but such property shall be valued and
assessed and the owner or owners thereof charged with all
back and current taxes justly due thereon whenever the same
may be discovered and placed upon the assessment books; and
the annual levy for each and every year shall be deemed and
taken to have embraced all such property as may have escaped
taxation as aforesaid; provided nothing herein contained shall
be construed to give such County Commissioners the right to
assess property for more than four years' back taxes; and the
provisions of this section, when they shall become operative,
shall repeal all Acts or parts of Acts, laws or parts of laws,
inconsistent herewith to the extent of such inconsistency.
