PRESIDENT PRAISES
SOUTH CAROLINANS
EXECUTIVE OF NATION WILL
VISIT CHARLOTTE AGAIN
Entire Population of the City As
sembIes to Pay Signal Honor
to the Distinguished
Guest

WASHINGTON, May 21.-President
Taft, returning from Charlotte, N. &,
reached Washington at 10:40 a. m. to
day and, entering one of the executive
automobiles, was driven through d
heavy rain direct to the White House
When he arrived at the executive off
ces he gave directions that the cab
met be assembled for it's usual Friday
morning sitting. The president found
Mrs. Taft much improved in health
Rains pursued the president all the
way from Charlotte, where yesterday
he was in the center of a veritable
cloudburst. Nearly four inches of rain
fell in the North Carolina city while
the president was there, and he ar
rived in a drenching downpour. The
presidents first trip into the south
since his Inauguration was replete
with incident. He spent three nights
on the train, and his days were crowded
with addresses, receptions, luncheons
and dinners.
In Charlotte last night the president
held a public reception, during which
he shook hands, seemingly with the en-
tire population
The president enjoyed thoroughly
meeting the people and was especially
pleased with the congratulations he re-
ceived at Charlotte upon the speech he
made there.
The speech was mentioned by nearly
every one with whom he shook hands.
The president was urged to visit the
south again, and said he would be more
than glad to do so.

STATE TO COLLECT
VAST SUM IN TAXES
CONTROLLERS ORDER AT
FECTS MANY OWNERS
Recent Action of the Legislature En-
ables official to Proceed at
Once Against the De-
Iinquents

SACRAMENTO, May 21.-Thousands
of property owners in California will
be affected by a notice State Controller
Nye is sending out regarding the pay
ment of delinquent taxes.
Unsuspecting owners, feeling them
selves secure, will be astonished to
find themselves dunned for taxes
owing anywhere from ten to twenty
years. o-
During the period from May IL, 1889,
to February %, 1895, the law required
the purchaser at a tax sale WITHIN
thirty days prior to the expiration OF
the time for redemption, or before
deed was applied for to serve written
notice upon the owner of the land Of
such expiration and to file an affidavit
with the tax collector showing such
service before a deed could be issued.
There was, however, no provision by
which the state could give motive, and
because of the want of such notice the
supreme court held that the deed issued
without notice was invalid.
A bill passed by the legislature,
however now authorizes the state to
give such notice, and puts it in po-
sition to collect the taxes that could
not be collected for the period between
1885 and 1895.
