Revenue Collectors of their respective

OF May. Hitherts the tax has been due

by a new Interpretation OF the law. and
instructions TO the collectors in accord
auce herewith, the tax must be paid on
or before the year commences, which,
as we have said, is tae first of May. All
parties in business IL these lines, there
fore, who do not pay sn or before that
date, will be mulc.ed in fifty per cent
penalty, which in most cases will be
severs burden, as the tax ranges from 50
&c $500, according b. business. The
collectors have no option in this matter,
but are obliged to enforce the collection
of the penalty with the tax. They de-
sys that all parties IL the business
should have ample warning of the con-
sequences of neglect to pay in advance.
