sKAGIT COUNTY MUST PAY.
The Record Wins Suit for Tax List
Expenses.

Special Dispatch to the InteLigencer.
MOUNT VERNON, June 12.-Tne jury
term in Skagst county closed today. ard
Judge Hadley has returned to his home in
New Wharcorn The case that has excited
perhaps the greatest attention during the
term Is that of 4. Sehging rs. Skagit Courl-
ty. A. Sehring Is the publisher of the
Record. the populiSt organ OF Skagit
county, and In March last made writ
ten contract with the county treasurer for
publishing the delinquent tax HIST during
April provided by law. The facilities
OF the Record are not adequate for getting
out 50 large a list, and therefore Mr.. Sc
bring made arrangements with another
paper to do most Of the work. A large
part OF the list was accordingly furnished
by the county treasurer and the work per-
formed by the printers. Before all the list
had been turned over to the printers, how
ever, the state auditor notified the county
treasurer that the legislature had passed
an act extending the time for the payment
Of delinquent taxes, and therefore doing
away with the necessity Of publishing a
delinquent TAX list. The county treasurer
therefore refused to turn over any more
copy. and the tax list was consequently
never published.
Mr.. Sebring thereupon presented his bill
to the county commissioners for the
amount Of work already performed and
the expense incurred by him, amounting TO
1888 TO- As the list had never been pub
liShed. although a large part of the work
of typesetting had been done, the county
commissioners. without asking the advice
of the county attorney. disaiiowed the bill.
Suit was Immediately commenced by Mr..
Sebrfng to recover on his contract. and to-
day the jury returned him verdict for the
full amount OF his bill.
