Those failing to pay their TAXES
before the LIST day OF December, 1901,
will have per cent. added to their
bills as the law directs.
The change made in the Tax Law
at the last session of the Legislature,
which shortens the time for collect
ing unpaid Tax bills, will force US to
collect them much earlier than here
tofore, at O. season perhaps when
money will be scarcer than now.
Therefore we will advise all persons
to psy before December LIST, 1901 and
save the penalty.
