That Delayed Tax List.

"The Treasurer has more work to do in preparing the delinquent tax list than what yoll indicated this morning." said County Treasurer Rosson to REpUB- LIcAN representative yesterday. "The list prepared by the Tax Collector was net turned over to me until January 12. Therl \ had to figure out the penalties in each case and add to the delinquent list. l had to copy the entire list, vir- tually do the same work the Tax Col lector had done, and it was large task, requiring considerable time. l don't think any more of the blame rests on me than on the other officials. The Tax Collector was eight days behind hand by bis own statement. Then the list was held four days for meeting of the Board of Supervisors before being turned over to me, and, besides that, they dhi not inform me what paper to publish the list in and 1t had to be re- turned for such instruction. Had that beeli dcne at first the list could have been turned over to the printer by Jam uarJ' 30 or 3l. One thing can't under stand Is why the printer should be over two weeks in publishing the list. Even if the officials were delayed few days by the enormous amount of work l can see Tao reason for this delay of the prifters.r
