WORK ON SCAVENGER TAX SALE
Colossal Task Accomplished by Treas
urer Fink During His
Term.

Some idea Of the work accomplished by
County Treasurer Fink in inaugurating
and carrying out the scavenger tax sales
can be had from the following figures:
The total number of tracts on the deIin-
quent list was 1855
OF these 17s4S defaulted, 12621 were paid
and Cancelled and in 3.34S cases answers
were filed In court.
Through sales to individuals 5,294 certih-
Gates were issued, covering 11,l7s pieces.
Sales by certificate to the city of Omaha.
city of South Omaha, county of Douglas
and state of Nebraska numbered 6,170 max
ing a total of 17,94S separate pieces so dis
posed OF.
The average number Of years for which
back taxes were due was eight, extending
as far back as 1863 On the treasurer and
his assistants devolved the whole task
OF preparing the books, and perfectlng all
the details for the sales 1t was, as Mr..
Fink says, colossal piece of work, and
yet in the carrying out of the provisions
OF the law there was not a hitch of any
kind in the office OF the county treas
urer.
In pursuing the duty thus imposed upon
him Mr. Fink was called upon TO decide
numerous questions of procedure. and in
every case taken into the courts he was
upheld all along the line. No official duty
of such dimensions was ever carried
through with the completeness and salts
faction to all concerned, for the reason
that every bidder and every taxpayer was
| treated exactly alike. No favoritism was
| shown to any person or corporation, and
| county officials from all parts Of Ne.
braska have taken the Douglas county
system, inaugurated and perfected by
Treasurer Fink, as their model.

The second night Of the Orphans fair at
the Auditorium brought large attendance,
much larger than is usual for the first
nights Of the fair. Many of the crowd
stayed the entire evening, admiring the
booths. watching the demonstrations of the
advertising exhibitors or buying pretty
things, which were on sale everywhere on
account Of the number in attendance and
the general interest taken by the public,
the management predicts a very success

which was to have been given by the Coun-
ell Bluffs woodmen OF the World, the Boys
Of Woodcraft repeated their exhibition Of
Thursday night. They are a thoroughly
trained body of youngsters and the opin-
ion was expressed that It was worth the
price of admission to see them drill.
The only part of the fair not in working
order is the big side show in the basement
under the stage. The staging and enclosures
we're completed yesterday afternoon, but
some details of the shows to be looked after

Some Beautiful Booths.
IL was remarked last night that one OF
the prettiest booths was that of st. johns

All its appointments, rugs, curtains and
armor decorations suggest the oriental, and
these beautiful things. together with the
silver and glass displayed. are worth per-
haps 81, 500. The doll booth Of the Sacred
Heart is another worth more than passing
mention. Dolls of all descriptions to the
number of several hundred are displayed.

nee, with music by Dimicks orchestra. In
the evening the shows will be running and
