rHrDELINousNr TAN LIST

1t is observable that in Navajo and other counties the boards of su-
 pervisors have included the delin-
 queot tax lists in their advertise
 ments for bids for the county print
 ing for 1893 This procedure goes contrary to the provisions of an act
 passed by the tin horn legislature, approved by the tin horn executive, which abolished publication of the delinquent tax list and provided that delinquents shall be notified by postal card of such delinquency and the day and date of sale.
 No doubt the action above noted was taken advisedly, and 1t should be emulated by all other county boards in the territory. Several eminent legal gentlemen have as- sured the writer that abolition of publication of the delinquent tax list is illegal and will not hold in court The argument is that sale of property for delinquent tazes de- prives the delinquent of his property, which cannot be done without due process of law; that such due pro- cess requires notice to the delin- quent; that such notice can be le- gally given by one of two methods only by personal service or,adver- Using ill newspaper; that notice by postal card is neither personal service nor advertising, and conse- illegal.
 With that showing any deliu- luent can defeat sale and beat the county and territory out of their axes. In that way a few large ! holders could deprive the ,ounty of ten times the sum saved y emitting publication. The Pima :ouEty board should guard against
