The Semi-Annual Collection q
Taxes.

We this week publish the law providing fora
semi annual collection Of taxes. According TO
its provisions, thoy are to be paid in two equal
;ps,alnents, which has many reasons TO favor
its acceptance by the people os wise arrange
mcnt, But many things which are very line IN
theory utterly fail when put into practice, and
such is more than likely to be the fate OF this
experiment, especially under the present incom-
pleto law. Tho first and most prominent OBJ
lection to its operation is the additional ex-
pense which it will impose upon The people II
viii be necessary for every County Auditor TO
make out TIVE tax duplicates, and otherwise just
double the umount of labor in connection with
the collection oftoxes throughout. In our own
county ths additional expense in the Auditors
office alone. will probably not be less than @ooO'
and the other extra expenses necessarily incurred
by the somi-annua collection OF taxes, will
mos, likely r'ach $500 in Wood County. 1t
is safe estimate to put the extra expense to the
State al 100000
1t does seem 'ous lhni law might have been
framed which would have possessed all the Od-
yan,ages uflurded by this one, without subject
ing the people to such an enormous extra ex-
pense. Under the sub-treasury law the treasury
shonld be sufficiently guarded without the S mi
annual settlement, aud the treasurer could, eth
er by issuing the receipts in full and crediIing
the amount paid thereon, or by any other con-
venisnt mode keep his accounts and be prepar.
ed for anannuul settlement without the ne
cessity of having an extra tax duplicate. But
