THE COLLECTION OF TAXEs.-In compile
ance with an act of the last Legislature the
! County Commissioners givenotice, this week,
that they will receive bids for collection of
State and County taxes. The amount now
paid for collecting taxes is five per cent, but it
is probable bids will be put in at cousidera-
bly, lower rate, 1t is, however, discretionary
with the Commissioners whether to accept
the lowest bids or not, and they may with
hold the contract from the lowest bidder, if
in their judgment the public interest would
be subserved by giving it to another The
law permits bids to be made by one person
for one or more districts, but we believe the
public would be better served, all other things
being equal, by not awarding more than one
district to the same person. The collection
of taxes in n sing lie district without unduly
harassing and distressing taxpayers is quite
as much rs one man can do, and if more
than one district is given to the same indi-
vidual, he must either employ deputies, or by
rigid application of the law compel per-
sons to come TO him and pay their taxes, q
course of procedure which would certainly
prove very inconvenient TO tax payers at II
distance from the collectors head quarters,
without corresponding benefit to the coun-
