DELINQUENT sALE-The fir.

DELINQUENT SALE-The first
publication of the notice of sale of
lands delinquent in their assessment
due the Salt River Valley Water Users
association, appears in this mornings
issue of The Republican. Every land
owner in the association win do well
to look the list over and see if his
name is there. There may be some
careless members who have forgotten
that they have not yet squared them
selves, and they will desire to have
their memory logged this way, if they
have neglected former notices. These
lands will be advertised until Monday
June %, on which day the sale to the
highest bidder for the smallest part of
the land for the payment of the as
sessments and costs, will begin, just as
il would in the case of delinquent
taxes. Those finding themselves in
this list now may have their names
eliminated by paying up their assess
ments and 25 cents for each separate
tract they own. Later it will not only
cost this slight penalty but there will
be a fine interest bill for those who
want to redeem after the land is sold.
The list is about the same length this
year as the delinquent list a year ago,
approximately hundred names. some
owning more than one piece of proper
ty. A year ago the list was cut down
IS per cent before the sale day and
this year, under the improved condi-
tions. it ought to be eliminated alto
gether. There is small excuse for one
to run behind unless the owner actual
ly cannot get the money. which cannot
be the case in many/instances. The
assessment is so small one can hardly
imagine an owner finding difficulty in
