Salem, Oi., Aug. 15.—Under the new law for the collection of delinquent taxes, unpaid taxes be«<>me delinquent after tbe tir.-t Monday it* October. H*« county courts have aliaolutely no juris- «liction in tbe promisee and do not have the right to extend fur a day the tiaie for the collet tion U any such delin- <|Uent taxes. Under the old law they becamo delinquent after April 1, but the county court ha«i the authority to make such extension of the time in which to maxe the collections as was <!eeme«l proper. But under the new law the taxes will absolutely beoome delin quent after the first Monday in Octo bar. Section 14 of tbe law now in opera tion prescribes the times of payment, the amount of penalty and interest for delinquencies, etc. Section 19 of tbe same act treats with the delinquent roll and prescribes when and in what manner it shsll be made. It is as follows: If any of the taxes mentioned in the roll shall remain unpaid, and the sher iff shall be unable to collect the same, he shall immediately after the first Monday of Octoher extend the amount i of tbe tax on each several ;>arcel of real i property, and upon the personal prop erty assesse«! to each individual, in a column provided for such purpose on the tax roll, headed delinquent, and shall return such roll, together with a statement compiled therefrom, and en tered thereon show ing the total amount of double asees.-ments, and other errors, etc. Subsequent sections of the act pro vide that after tbe examination by the county clerk of the roll, and when the proper credits have lieen made for er rors, etc , then the roll shall 1« re turns 1 to the sheriff with a warrant commanding him to sell the property uj-m which the tax was levied. So it will be seen that the county court has no voice in the matter. The time when the unpaid taxes become .«leiinjuent, as well as the time of their collection now lieing regulated entirely by statute, and there will lie no ex- tension of time.
