out far ahead. If the Dallesites cannot

Spanish, either.
The bon-fire Saturday night was the
largest of the season. It was due to the
fact that the young men had to earn

around it, was such a beautiful sight
that the crowd blistered their faces pos

Notice to Delinquent Taxpayers.
The delinqent taxes of Wasco county,
as shown on th6 rolls now in the hands
of the sheriff are $00,000, an amount al
most equal to the indebtedness of the
county. Every citizen will doubtless
admit that thia state of affairs should
not exist, and that all taxes should be
collected. On account of bard times
in the past the county court Laa shown
leniency to taspayere, but that leniency
has reached the limit, and the court
cannot wait longer on delinquents to
make settlements. For thia reason a
warrant has been attached to each de
linquent roll commanding the sheriff to
collect all taxes by seizure and sale of
property. With a bountiful crop now
in eight, there can no longer be any rea
sonable excuse for tbe non-payment of
taxes. The sheriff is bound by oath to
comply with the terms of. the warrants
attached to the tax rolls for the collec
tion thereof, and has no option in the
matter. Delinquent taxpayers can save
the cost of seizure an 1 sale of property
by settling their taxes at once.
