TAX LAW CHANGES

According To the amendments TO tn,
general tax law, which were enacted
into law by the last legislature. there
are several which are important to tag
payers.
Section SO of the tax law, which for.
merly provided for interest upon delin.
quent tax lands at the rate of per cent.
per annum and per cent. collection
Zee, which was added when the taxes
became delinquent, now provides for
interest at the rate of ] per cent. a
month or II per cent per annum, with
addition of the 4 per cent. collection
zee This increased rate of interest
Will take effect on and after September
% next.
Formerly there has been no charge
for expense for advertising purposes or
other expenses, on lands subject to sale
Tor unpaid taxes, until the same hal
been advertised and subject to sale
This advertisement was made i'm April
oil each year and thus there was no
charge for these purposes until the
land was actually offered for sale, which
was the first Tuesday in May of each
year This section of the law has also
been amended to increase this expense,
which has been 20 cents on each descrip.
ton, to ~, and makes the same a lien
upon the land on the first of October
next preceding the time prescribed for
the sale of said land
The land which is now held for un-
paid taxes of 1897 will be sold for the
taxes, If not sooner paid, in May next.
Under the old provision, the expense
OF sale which will now be 81 for eacb
description would not become lien
until that date, but under the new pro.
Visions of the law the said charges be-
come lien on the first of October next.
Taxpayers who are delinquent for the
-aNes OF that year can therefore save
his additional expense by paying same
before that time.
Another change in the law which Is
d interest to property owners is the
'eplacing of the fee for the county
reasnrers certificate to warranty
leeds. This fee, formerly % cents,
vas reduced to ID cents, and afterward
'bolished entirely, but owing to a re- !
'ent enactment which takes effect on {
september % of this year, the fee for !
his certi ificate has haar r.at ,,,,,.1 - a. y, \
riginal rate of l5 cents.

son. Conditions now, however, are en-
couraging. The acreage of spring wheat
is extraordinarily large, the crop is ma
turing rapidly and the indications now
are that the output will not fall as far
below the average as was feared earlier
in the year.
The latest report issued by the depart
ment of agriculture places the average
condition OF winter wheat OH June at
67.3, as compared with 90.S on June
last year 1876 on June l, 1897, and 1874
the mean of the June averages OF the last
10 years. The average condition Of
spring wheat on juno l was Ola, as
against 1909 on June l, 1898; 1916 on
June 1, 1897, and 93,2 the mean of the
June averages for the last Is years. Six
Of the 20 states represented in these es-
Inmates report al aggregate increase Of
245,000 acres in the acreage of spring
wheat, while IA report a decrease of
900 acres, or net decrease for all of
100000 acres.
The official crop estimates issued by
the government are, however, always
lower than those prepared by private
authorities, and when these official re-
ports are revised, after the harvest has
been gathered, it is almost invariably in
the direction of an increase. The gov
eminent estimates place this years
wheat crop az somewhere between $780,
100000 and 510,0O0,0O0 bushels. Esti-
mates prepared by careful observers
place it anywhere from 523,00OOOO to
500, 000, 900 bushels. II these latter fig
ures should be realised the country
would have larger output than it ever
had except in 1891, when it amounted
to 6l2, 100000 bushels, and in 1898, when
it reachep the colossal total of 675, 000,-
600 bushels But even if the crop should
amount to only 525, 000,00 bushels,
there would be no cause for uneasiness,
the output in 1897 having been only
5000, 900 bushels 9reater-snd the yield
for that year had then never been sur
passed except ouce-in 1891.
In view of these conditions and the
situation abroad the outlook for the AM
erican farmer is by no means discour-
aging. He will not have as much wheat
to sell this year as he did last, but he is
going to have good deal, nevertheless,
and for What he has he will find a ready
market with the possibility OF still high
er prices.

All advertisements will be continued and

The extending of the city water
system by the building Of a new
reservoir is now one of the absorb
ing topics before the council. Two
sites are in view for the reservoir,
one above the present reservoir, and
the other beyond the Layman prop
erty in the west part of town. The
cost of putting the reservoir at the
latter poini will be about $500
more lhan to build above the pres
ent site, but it will give so much
better service that it will be q wise
expenditure of money. If the lower
site is chosen it will be a matter of
only few years till further extern
sion will be necessary, but the site
west of town is high enough to sup
ply the city for all time, and we
believe it would be the best policy
to build reservoir Of large capacity
on that site. While it would cost
a little more at first, it would be the
cheapest in the end.

gest fair, with the most and best Rttrac-
tions in the history of the county. This
has been decided by Chas. DeFrance
who has been elected manager OF the
Fair Association.
The meeting Tuesday was well attend
ed by representative business men, The
meeting was called to order by b. Bur
gunder, president of the association last
year. Oh as. DeFrance was unanimously
elected president, F. j. Stone treasurer
and G. l.. Mackenzie secretary OF the as
ISOLATION.
The president and treasurer with E..
II. Hinchliff, G.. II. Lennox and q. IL.
Woodin will act as board OF directors
with full authority to manage all the de-
tails of the fair.
The committee on finance reported
that they had already secured pledges
from the business men to the amount Of
81 $50 cash and 500 in advertising, and
expected to increase the amount to
$4,000.
The former treasurer of the board an
nounced that a balance OF $lOO.7O re-
NAMED from last years fair, which he
turned over to the new treasurer. 1t
was also announced that the rent OF the
fair grounds for this year WAS already
paid and that balance Of $40 from the
last Fourth of July celebration had been
voted to the fair association.
A short discussion followed at VIII. CHI
it was determined that no admission fee
to the grounds should be charged this
year but that a hearty invitation should
be extended to the people OF tho county
to attend and that free evening enter
tanments should be given during the
fair.
President DeFrance stated after the
meeting that his idea WAS to have more
races and amusements than heretofore,
in addition to the exhibits of stock and
AGRICULTURAL products. He favors giving
free dances in the evening and ball
games, races, and all kinds eli amuSe-
mcnts at the fair grounds during the
day.
