The Enforcement Of the Payment
Of Taxes.

The Tax Commission, whose report
is now before the Legislature, gays
particular attention to the methods
Of enforcing the payment of taxes OIL
real estate, which have been found
hitherto wholly insufficient. They
cay that not a single tax title has
ever been approved by any Court in
this State. The Courts "ho!d the title
to be the execution of a power, and
therefore, not sufficient Tor the pur.
poses intended, unless all the, condi'
tlons of that power have leen; fully
complied with. 1t is no exaggeration
OF expression 10 say that there is
probably not one case in a thoueand
where Ell the conditions Of the power
have been complied with" The
Commission think it possible to amend
the law 80 as to make the conditions
necessary to avalid transfer Of. title,
by a sale for taxes, easily capable Of
proper proof, and recommend pro-
ceedings against the actual property
taxed, with sale by order OF Court.
The Commission are confident that
the Courts vii sustain a title acquired
in this way, ard in the Tax bill submit
ted to the Legislature they define the
steps proposed to be taken.
The plan OF the Commission is that,
Immediately after November 30, in
every year, the county treasurer ahall
make list of all delinquent taxes on
real property. and summon all per-
sons having any rightin any property
on which taxes are unpaid to show
cause why the property should not
be sold under the lien Of the State
fox taxes. On or before December Is
the list and aumm ons muet be filed
in the Court of Common Pleas, and
be published, by advertisement, once
week for three weeks, in newspa.
per published at the county seat.
This advertisement is made a sufficient
service and commencement of action,
and in lieu Of personal service. The
different cases shall be tried at the
next term of the Court of Common
Pleas, the Court disposing first Of &C
tions where no cause was ehown why
the sales should not take place, and
making a separate decree IN each &C
tion for the eale OF each tract or lot.
Where the property is in default
that is, where no cause Why the prop
erty should not be sold has been
shoTn--the properly, "or as much
thereof ss may be sufficient shall
be cold at public auction under
the direction Of the sheriff, at such
time as the Court may direct, the.
ster!f executing the purchaser 9 deed
which shall convey a title in fee of
the property, and upon the produc
tion OF which the purchaser shall be
entitled TO possession. The sheriff
shall deduct from the proceeds OF
ssie the coets and expenses and the
amount OF delinquent taxes, with any;
taxes which have accrued since, and
shall then dispose of the remainder,
of the procseds as the Court may dl:t
lat the Aualter
