DELINQUENT TAXES DECREASE.
Coming Sale Will Be Smallest
Years for Hamilton County.
Lnl To I'imes-Repunlican

Special to Times Republican.
Webster City, Nov. 27.-The annual
delinquent tax sale to be held in this
city Monday, will be the smallest in
years. Not more than one hundred
pieces of property will be sold. In the
list. however, were 295 descriptions.
Since it's publication In the Journal
nearly one third Of the delinquents
have come in to the office of County
Treasurer Brandrup and paid their
taxes
The annual treasurer's sale in Ham
ilton county usually runs from $50 to
200 pieces of property. Last year there
were $50 in the list. There are several
reasons for the smallness Of this years
list. Last years excellent crops. of
course, have had much to do with it,
but the activity of Mr.. Brandrup. too,
has had a tendency to decrease the
list. The condition is one that is be-
ing generally commented upon here,
for not in many years has Hamilton
county had so small list Of proper
ties offered at a delinquent tax sale.

is greatly changed during an attack OF
acute rheumatism, that there are few
acute diseases in which it becomes thin
and watery with greater rapidity.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills build up the
blood. They begin at once to counterfeit
the disease. Sometimes a very short
treatment suffices to effect q cure.
Other cases require persistent treatment:
