ton was tried by u jury, or two DAYS after

Joint committees on revenue and taxa
ton Providing a new revenue and taxa
ton law, in which many important
changes are made. Penalties and interest
in excess of per cent on all delinquent
taxes are RENTED, if paid prior to No
vember 30, 1897, which in effect means
that persons delinquent will have to pay
only per cent interest from time of de-
linquency to time he pays, If paid before
November 80. Another important pro,
vision is that, whenever property becomes
delinquent, the county treasurer issues
tax certificates to any person who wishes
to pay taxes on delinquent property, said
certificates drawing interest at ID per
cent three years from the date the certiti-
cate is issued, the holder thereof, by due
process Of law, becomes owner Of the
property and gets tax deed from the
county. This does away with the enor-
ilOuS th pcH5c vi ADVERTISING utIlhipcH'
lists, as the holder OF the certificate pave
for the advertising. A provision OF $500
exemption of personal property and $500
exemption OF improvements in and upon
land is secured by the single takers. I'M
der the present law an exemption OF $500
personal property to heads OF households
only lis made, while the new law in
creases the amount 500 and extends the
privilege to all.
