IS IF PAID BEFORE MARCH 15 REBATE S PER CENT. No Penalty Attached Until After April 8 Fmhw Parcels Sold Last Year for Delinquent Tax Than Ever Before Expected Ute Proportion of Lands Redeemed the Coming Year Will Be Unusually Large. During the coming week the tax roll will be placed In the hands of the sheriff, and all those paying their taxes between that time and March 15 will receive a rebate of 1 per cent. In view of the fact that taxpaylng will soon commence, the tax law and the manner In which It has operated during the past year is a matter of Interest. An examination of the rec ords yesterday revealed the fact that during the past year there were 100 parcels fewer sold as delinquent than the year previous. This year the sales of delinquent property to pay taxes amounted to 11250. Much of the property thus sold will yet be ' re deemed. Many pieces of property are placed on the delinquent list because of the tact that titles have been transferred after the tax roll has been made up and given to the sheriff. In such cases the notices are made out to the old owners, and no notice is sent the purchaser. Under the law the man owning the property at the time the roll Is given the sheriff, la responsi ble for the tax for the preceding year. According to Deputy Funk there are two reasons mainly - responsible for the fact thai taxes have been promptly paid during the past year. One of these Is the general prosperity of the county, and the other the new tax Ian. which places a premium on prompt payments, and which law Is allowed full sway In this county.
