A bill has been introduced in
the legislature which provides
for the leasing of all lands by the
Boards of County Com missioners
which have becomes delinquent
for taxes and which have been
bid in by the county. Under the
present law after the county bids
in a tract of land it remains in
that condition until the owner or
someone else chooses to redeem
it. Under the contemplated law
the counties in the west, in par
ticular, would be enabled to de-
rive a large amount of money
from the leasing of unoccupied
delinquent tax land. The bill
should become law.

notice issued TO all postmasters yesteT-

vised clerks TO be careful not TO accept
packages so marked from employees Of
railroad or express companies,
