JUDGE r. V.

Governor Noe, has certainly
done a most meritoriou3 service
TO Mississippi which he appointed
TO the bench that splendid law
yer and excellent gentleman,
Hon. K. V. Fletcher. The APP
pointmcnt at once met Tire entire
approval Of all the best legal
talent IN the state. The APPOINT
ment was merited Judge Fletch-

want, is q hard painstaking stu
dent, has marked ability to grasp
the most intricate problems of
the law, and is able in the fullest
sense TO set in a clear, forcible
way the essence Of every legal
problem
1t has been said. and no doubt
that i, will be attempted, that a
strong effort will be made to per-
suade Governor Noel to place
another in Judge Fletcher's place
for the full term. We do not be-
liove he would heed such a move
ment; it would be rank injustice
to Judge Fletcher in the first
place, and it would undo the
most splendid act Of Governor
Noel since his administration be-
gan. The Supreme Bench is no
place for cheap politicians and
job hunters, we need only the
masters in the law. mature in
mind, large experience, peculiar
endowment for this special work.
together with all the manly vir-
tues. Judge Fletcher combines
them alli many others seeking
the position, if We hear Alright,

unbiased legal talent of Missis-
sippi demands that Judge Fletch-
er be given the full term begin

DELINQUENT TAXES BY
DISTRESS AND SAFE

Replying TO au inquiry from
John I. Jordan, tax collector of
the little town Of Iuka, Tishimin.
60 county, Attorney General
Stirling has laid down the law IN
sherifts and tax collectors gene.
rally that will no doubt prove
very much OF a surprise to most
Of them.
Mr.. Jordan wanted TO know
what about collecting damages
from such persons as do not nav
their taxes ON or before the date
they ar duc-the 10Th of Decem-
Der, and after which time a great
many tax collectors have been
giving printed notice they will
assess I'D per cent damages on
MI delinqucnts.
The States new Attorney Cam
eral does not think they have any
right or authority of law for do.
Ing anything OF the kind. and
tells Mr.. Jordan 80 by citing him
In the several sections nj IN
code bearing on this subject.
To sum up-the only way the
tax collector can legally collect
the ten per centum damages AL.
lowed by law is by distress and
sale OF the property that is liable
for taxes.
Municipal taxes that are dcIin.
guent after the middle of Decem.
Der are to be advertised and sold
Just as county taxes are collected
from delinquents, and sheriffs
are not authorized to advertise
ana sell property for taxes till
alter The middle of Janugrv.
Attorney General Stirling quotes
the following sections of the Code
IN defense OF his ruling:
Answering your inquiry ad.
dressed TO me as follows: Can a
tax collector of a municipality
collect damages on taxes maid
after the 10th day of December F"
oec. 1911 of the Code of 1900
provides lit shall be the duty of
every person assessed to nav his
taxes to the collector on or hae
lore the 10th day of December"
Under Sec. 1915 "AIl taxes
remaining unpaid on the 18th
day Of December. shall immad;.
ateiy be collected by the collec.
tor, by distress and sale of per.
sonal property liable therefor"
Under Sec. 1926, After the
fifteenth day of January the tas
collector shall advertise all land
IN his county on which the taxes
have not been paid"
Under Sec. 219S, the tax col.
leetor is allowed ten per centum
on all taxes collected after the
18th OF December, by distress or
otherwise"
sec. 343 provides that the tax
collector OF a municipality ..shall
coiiect municipal taxes during
time and in the same man.

as the State and county taxes are

FOR the nonpayment of munich

IN the same manner as provided
by law for sales of like propertv

The collector of taxes by mu.
inequalities not operating under
speciol charters is governed by
above sections.
Under them you will not have
a right to demand the payment
