The consideration was $17,000. The delinquent tax list of Multnomah county is published in The 'Journal to day. As the law now stands the county commissioners are required to publish the list of property upon Which taxes (have not been paid and are delinquent, supposedly for the purpose of givihg property owners who have failed or neglected to pay their taxes. The list published today will give that notice to those who are delinquent as to their taxes and do not know it. j The list is being published by The Journal at the rate of 30 cents a column inch, that figure being- 10 cents an inch lower than the next lowest bid sub mitted by the Daily News, which Is. also publishing it. It is 45 cents an inch lower than the bid submitted by the Telegram and 8 cents an inch lower than the hid of the Oregonlan. The low bid of The Journal, which Is below the actual cost of publication, was submitted, and the contract of publication secured, in order that the delinquent taxpayers might be saved as much of the needless cost of publica tion as possible. All compensation re ceived for the publication of the list by The Journal will be donated by it to war work activities. German. Reseryist Is Placed in Jail! V ; .- , l t Marti Baser, of Oregoa City .
