WEDDINGS.
Sophistry of tlie Enterprise.
The sheriff collected f 10m a total of
$12,501.30 delinquent taxes $4,210.47,
and the county clerk, to use his own
words, "between seven and eight thous
and," say $7,500, leaving $11,307.19 de
linquent taxes for the years '05, '96, '98
and '99 still uncollected. From a total
of 131,000 delinquent taxes they
collected, therefore, approximately,
$11,700, which is several thousand dol
lars less than "some $15,000 of back tax
liens" which the Enterprise claims the
clerk and sheriff collected. That they
were not "available assets," to quote
the Enterprise, fordebt paying purposes,
until turned into cash, is shown by the
very fact that $31,000 in back tax liens
have brought in, thusfar, less than
$12,000.
In speaking of deputy hire for clerk
and sheriff the Enterprise says that for
mer clerks and sheriffs did work without
extra deputy hire. The amount paid
for deputy hire in these offices was
greater under previous administrations
while for assessor's help it was less.
We admit that the assessor has more ex
tra work than former assessors and same
is true of other officers, but ot to such
a large extent. For comparison the first
15 months under Maddock cost the
