DELINQUENT TAXES.
Mode of Procedure Rela- tive to Their Col
 lection.

Just at the present time the provisions of the delinquent tax law are of special interest to many, and particularly those who are unfortunate enough to be represented or the delinquent list. The law was approved March 19, 1903, and provides as follows:
 Section SO-All real estate upon which the taxes remain unpaid on the second Monday in Decem- Der, annually, shall be deemed delinquent and the tax collector shall proceed to enforce the lien of the Territory thereon, as re- quired by this chapter.
 Section Sl provides that the tax collector shall levy upon. seize and distrain personal property and sell the same for the tax due thereon.
 From Section 9O.-All taxes hereafter, after March 19, 1903, becoming delinquent shall bear 1 per cent interest per month"; from the time they become delinquent until paid, and shall also be sub- ject to the same fees, and con- missions charged as Tn this chap ter provided for taxes now de- linquent. In computing interest under this section a fraction of a month shall be regarded as a whole month.
 Section 93 allows 4 per cent of the original tax tor collection. The clerk of the board of super visors shall receive 25 cents per tract. city or town lots, on such lots, etc., from 1888 to 1902, in- elusive, and on 1903 and subse quent years the sum of 15 per tract, city or town lot. This is the clerks fees for transcribing the assessment into the "back book tax"
 Sixty days after the second Monday in December, 1903. the tax collector shall commence suit to collect such tax, interest, costs and penalties, including 25 per cent of the tax added as costs tor attorneys ices for bringing the suit on all delinquent property from the year 1888 to and in- cluding the year 1903.
