Tax Sale-Validity
Suit Threat Here
Because of a mix-no in tax
foreclosure ; property on South
Commercial "street, " the "county
may face a suit to test the legal
ity of tbe tax sales, , it was re
vealed yesterday at a meeting-of
the county . court. Tbe owner of
the property, a Eugene "woman. Is
reported to have threatened suit
to test the law under which the
property was sold. -.-
The woman believed the taxes
had been paid on her property
but when she found they had been
sold to the county she entered into
a contract with the county to buy
the property back. It was then
found that the lots had already
been Bold and-that the county
could not give her the agreement
to repurchase the land. The pres
ent owner offers to give up the
property for $50 over his cost, hut
the twner refuses to ray the ex
tra COSt. r
The court-yesterday instructed
William Thielsen to inform the
woman that they could not give
her the title to the land and to
refund her money.
Such a suit to outlaw the meth
od of tax sales would cause con
siderable confusion It sustained.
The county - has foreclosed 450.
pieces of real property and under
the management of Thielsen has
sold a large number of them to
various purchasers. Court mem
bers Indicated that they would
welcome a test of the law by such
a suit before additional sales are
made.

extended sympathy to the family

died since the 1935 fair.
Not as staid as greyhounds who
follow the electric rabbit, tho
hounds entered in a stunt race
around the track yesterday morn
ing took to the open, country in
stead of chaBing the bear which
they -were supposed to track. The
merriment of the audience was
heightened by dogs' surprise leap
ing of the track fences and the
arguments of owners claiming the
prize money. Although Dan, red
hound entered by Allan Dun, Dai
las, located the bear first, the
affair was .called no race.
s Yesterday for the first day
since the fair began, no accident
injuries were reported at the first
aid station.
