forfeited TaxsInValid.

The following from the Duluth News
Tribune concerning the forfeited tax sale
is Of interest togall: intending purchasers:
County Attorney Phelps will provide
the county board at it's meeting today
with an opinion asserting that Che for
feited tax law Is invalid for certain rea-
sons. He declares that Judgment against
property in the delinquent list cannot be
entered before March II and after that
there will not be time enough to serve
notice on the owners, according to law,
which requires that notice shall be served
60 days before the sale, which will take
place May 2. At this sale, instead of
merely the mill state tax being neces-
sary, it will be necessary that at least SO
per cent of the tax shall,be paid.
M. Phelps will recomend that this
county do not hold the sale on May /,
as the law requires.

It viii be seen that Winfield received
the decision not on debating merit, but
through the peculiar marking-syste
which does not depend on total points
made but on the relative rank Of each
speaker. Since this system was accepted
by the representatives Of both colleges It
is not the desire o. the Fairmount people
10 raise i kick at this time, but it is
only fair 10 state on their behalf that
they vigorously opposed the adoption Of
this system and only accepted II as a
compromise and in the interests Of har-
mony.

batting team and appreciates the enthusl-
astic support given them by the people Of

The recent decision of the secre-
tary OF the interior in regard to
improving vacant lots in the Terri
tory towns is very far reaching
and will give an impetus to build
ing and Improvement. The secl e.
tary holds that owners Of vacant
lOts in towns may improve the
same mp to the time of appraisement
by the townsite commission, and
that all valuable and substantial
improvements placed on town
property mp to the time of such
appraisement shall entitle the hold
er to purchase title at SO per cent
OF the appraised value. Hereto
fore all building and improvement
has ceased as soon as the survey
commenced aud no subsequent i'm
provement was held to be valid as
giving the holder a prior right of
purchase even at 62l per cent of
the appraised value. Under this
new ruling possessors OF vacant
lots will hasten to improve them
i'm order to secure the so per cent
rate and towns win build rapidly,

commission.
