Year for Delinquent Tax Than Ever
Before Expected Ute Proportion

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.
