Hon. III. Farsceil, Treasurer Of Linn CO.,
desire to call your attention to the bal.
auce OF unpaid taxes due the State for the
years 1883 and 1884, amounting TO tho sum
cf 60. 60l 81, and hereby demand Immediate
payment of the same. The State at che Sep.
temher term OF Court for Muiknonah county
obtained Judgment against said county, for
amount sued for. together with costs, Atty'a
fees and per cont additional, aud the points
raised covered all tho cases OF unpaid taxos
now due from the several counties. A prompt
relponse 10 this letter will save your county
q suit and DEGREES such as tho State has just
obtained against Multnomah county.
Very Truly Yours.
EDWARD q. HIeseH,
State Treasurer.
Mr.. Farwoll Immediately answered tho
above, pointing out au important urror in
the amount Of tho delinquency, aud another
letter from tho Stata Treasurer acknowledge
ed the delinquency to be S3,s0L5l. Unless
arrangements are made for tho payment Of
this by the County Court now in session suit
will llimmedistely bo brought for the above
amount. The reason the above sum is delin.
quent is that the Mortgage Compaaies doing
business iu this county refused TO pay their
taxes, as is well known. This county, as
we'll as others, deducted tho amount OF tho
States share Of those taxes in rendering its
account with the State. The State wants it
now, already has obtained il in Maltnomah
county, and proposes TO wherever IL is due.
II the county has to pay is, as it probably
will. il will not present a very pleasant sub.
ject for contemplation, that of paying tho
taxes Of Mortgage Companies. Most farmers
have their hepds full in paying their own.
These cases show the Importance OF pushing
to an early issue the question Of payment Of
taxes under the Mortgage tax law. II they
cannot bo collected 10 the different counties
Of the State taxpayers should know IL. as
thorO is not much poetry iu payiag other
peoples taxes.

Quick Delivery.

Last Friday morning one of the de-
livery teams of Virgil Parker made the
quickest trip on record, Virgil was in
the back part Of Mr.. Ans Marshalrs
residence when some boys on the street
scared the team by throwing pumpkins,
and il ran away at an extraordinary
speeds Taking its usual coarse around
the city it left bologna sausage at one
place, potatoes at another, apples at an
other, sugar at some other place, ETC.,
but they seemed to be no more particu.
lar about the manner than a newspaper
carrier. After it had run its course
through different streets it stopped ol
its own accord, but not until the front
axle of the wagon, and the tongue were
broken, and the back axle was bent as
curved as rainbow. The team is AZ
gentle as a twenty year old dog and
would never have acted so unbecoming
ly had it not been for some unusus
treatment.
