were sung by the assembly. and recita-
tions were rendered by Fritz Myers,

Fifty Taxpayers Settle.
Especial Correspondence

Kaysville Sept 4-The opportunity
given by the city council for those whose
property was sold for delinquent city
taxes in 1898 to redeem without the pay
ment of full costs has been accepted by
about fifty taxpayers and about $500 has
been paid into the city treasury. This is
about one-third of the total amount that
was tied up in tax sales. The council
granted the privilege of clearing up their
titles on the easy terms because or TWO
petitions that were presented by some OF
the delinquents. and it is said there would
have been but few tax sales remaining
unredeemed but for the determined oppo-
sition of a few leading Layton men, who
are said to still hope that they may escape
paying their proportion OF the city's in
debtedness.
AS the matter stands now. there Is a
cloud on the title to a score OF the best
farms and residences in Layton. The city
tax sale record has been filed with the
county recorder. so that not one of the
delinuuents has clear title to his real
estate. 1t is a complication that may lead
to serious difficulties and endless Htfga-
ton in the future.
