PROPERTY OWNERS PROMPT
IN PAYING THEIR TAXES
Percentage Of DeIinquencies Esti-
mated by Chief Collector as De-
oidedIy Less Than Was the
Case Last Year

First payment on city taxes became
delinquent one minute after o'clock
last night, and, although the exact
total of the days business cannot be
told until the mail is received, the col
lections for the day will be well over
5000. 900.
Tax Collector f. z. johnson esti-
mates that the delinquencies this year
will fall below those of last year by
several per cent. Only SO per cent of
taxes was collected at the first pay
ment last year, while indications are
that the amount will go over &C per
cent this year. The payment of taxes
is looked upon as an indication of gen
eral business, and this shows that con-
ditions have rebounded from the re-
cent depression in a gratifying man
ner.
