To THE SENATE
Herewith ! return to
the Senate, in which it originated, a bin enti-
tied ian act 10 amend Chapter ls Of the Re
vIscd Statutes and 10 prescribe the manner
IN which delinquent tax lands bid off by the
Counties shall be taxed, +" without my approv-
al.
! The evident intention Of this bill Is, 70 pro-
vide that lands bid oil for counties d: sales for
/ the non-payment Of taxes shall continue to be
taxed, and therefore yearly offered for sale for
such subs quCnt taxes IL case Of their non-pay-
Inent, and until tax tide shall be perfected
to the county; and that after the perfection of
such lax title, the county shall paw the taxes
as now provided by law. ana further, in case
any such land 50 bid Oft for any county shall
/ be purchased At any subsequent tax sale, by
any other person, that such person shall not
acquire title under his bid until all claims Of
the county arising from taxes o. tax sales shall
\ be paid
4 The Bill does not accomplish this object If
/ my view Of is intention is correct, and ifsuch
IS not the intention Of the bill il is impossible
, to ascertain from the context what is its OBJ
iect.
4 The bill is ambiguous and uncertain. and If
+ il becomes law, will produce confusion and
uncertainty in the affairs Of counties connec-
( ted with their purchase of land tor the aon-
/ payment Of taxes.
Every law relating TO the sale of lands for
/ taxes, and the taxes levied on lqnds should
/ be plain, clear and unequjvoca.
/ OF the ambiguity a.li uncertainty apparent
on the face Of this bill in lis terms and objects,
return It without my approval to The Legis-
la;ure for It's further consideration
