Treasurers Have Set
tied With the County Treas
urer For Taxes Collected
TO THE 10TH OF JANUARY,
According to a Law Passed at
the Last Session Of the
Legislature.

The treasurers of the various
townships in the county have re-
mittcd to County Treasurer Wilcox
all sums of money which they have
collected for taxes up to January
10th, and in turn the county
treasurer has forwarded the state
taxes to the auditor general.
1t used to be the custom for
the treasurers in the townships to
wait until they had collected their
tax and bring it in when they re-
turned their books to the county
the first of March. This was
broken up by law passed at the
last session of the legislature re-
quiring them to make return on all
collected up to the 10th of January.
BY the same law the county treas
'urers are obliged to make an earlier
return than before and send the
balance of the taxes when the town
ship treasurers turn in their books
in the spring
From now on all payers of state
and county taxes pay an added fee
to the treasurer for his services as
u collector. AS there will be no ad-
ditional fee or penalties added later
the money will undoubtedly come
in slowly during the entire remain
ing time.
Treasurer Wilcox states that up
to the present time the money COZ
lected is nearly as much us last
year, when the settlement was
made March lst.

First Hearing Held.

The big fight between the Michi-
gan Land q Iron company and the
settlers on. its lands was begun in
the Marquette land Office Monday,
says the Mining Journal, when the
register and receiver gave the initial
hearing in the first of the three
cases which have been brought by
the attorneys of the corporation.
Proofs of citizenship, corporation
papers, deeds from the NJ, H. & o.
and deposition from Alexander
Agassiz, president of the company,
were offered as evidence by the
plaintiffs. No .oral testimony was
given.
After these documentary proofs
had been put in, ID. H. Ball, the
land company's attorney,applied for
permission to take depositions of
certain stockholders in Boston. This
request was granted, the register
and receiver overruling the objec
tions of Culver e. Button, who, as
attorneys for the settlers, wished to
have these witnesses brought to
Marquette and made to give their
testimony orally.
After granting permission to the
plaintiffs to have the depositions
taken the hearing was adjourned
till February 10th.
There have been three cases brought
by the complainants covering three
classes Of lands. Mondays hearing
and the adjournment have to do only
with the first. The second hearing
has been set for Friday and the
third for next Tuesday.
In its bill the company alleges
that there were no homesteaders or
preemptioners on the lands in dis
pute prior to May |, 1883, but it is
said four will come in at the next
hearing and endeavor to make good
their claims that they .wcre settlers
prior to that date.
The company will lose its title to
the lands of as many homesteaders
and preemptioners- as can establish
this fact, for the reason that the
titles of such, as well as those OF
bona tide innocent purchasers of
railway grants, are confirmed by the
act of congress passed in March,
1897.
