UNPAID TAXES.
CITY FATHERS AGAIN MULLING
OVER OLD PROBLEMS.
MUST HAVE MONEY AT ONCE, OR
WILL PROCEED AGAINST coll
LECToRs' BoNDsMEN-
CITY BUSINESS.

The city fathers are again muIling over
the vexstious problem of unpaid taxes
At Monday evenings meeting OF the
board, which lasted until near midnight,
most OF the time was occupied by Discus
sion of this old question.
The city has obligations spproximating
$4,000 which IL must meet within the
next two weeks. There Is no money in
the treasury to meet them. Tax collec-
tions this year have been slow.
AT the meeting list Of sixty four tax
payers, nearly all OF them owing over
200. and the total aggregating over
sl3 600, was su omitted to the board. Most
OF these delinquent tax payers are better
tax amounts to but a few dollars. The
aldermen seriously consider the advisa-
bility OF publishing this list of delin-
quents, in order that the people may see
just W bo is responsible for the stringent
condition of the city's finances. It
would make "migbty interestin' readin'."
Many Of the names on this list are
found among the deIiDqpents year after
year. The whole trouble seems to be that
the tax collectors are too IenieDt. They
do not like, naturally, to PIT their hand
on the shoulder OF one of these delin-
qnents and saw: "Psy up. or go to jail"
rne collectors have ali the authority
needed.
The aldermen on Monday evening
passed vote trying to impress upon the
collectors the fact OF this authority, and
notifying them that unless $40 900 was
paid into the city treasury within ten
days the city would proceed against the
bondsmen OF the collectors, as they can
do under the terms of the collectors
warrant aud bond.
Tax Collector Holmes has issued a
notice to delinquent taxpayers, calling
attention to this action OF the city board,
and giving notice that he would proceed
as directed.
