HUNDREDS OF BILLS
FILED IN CHANCERY
TO COLLEGE, TAXES
ATTORNEY fowler PROCEED.
ING UNDER ACTS OF LAST
LEGISLATURE.
SOAt SFT1LING WlTAyvl SUIT
The New Act Provides That Eject.
ment and Possession by the State
and the Disposition of Property So
Acquired.

During the term of chancery court
here this week W. J. fowler, back
tax attorney for this section, has filed
approximately 500 bills for the col
lection of back taxes in the county.
The property against which 'hese
bills are filed ale scattered through
out the county and refer to some ex-
cellent farms, and in a few instances
to valuable city property. g..
Many of the cases run back for a
number of years, and are against lots
Of small valuation and the taxes and
accrued penalties amount to more
than fair valuation at present
Some Of these have been mere over
sights, while other omissions have
perhaps been Of a different character.
This action is taken in accordance
with the provisions of chapter = of
.ho acts Of the last legislature, ana
lis creating no little stir among the
delinquents whose property has been
libeled.
Heretofore, according to the state
|ment of the attorney, the property has
been sold by the trustee, and where
not bid in by other parties went by
default to the State and there was no
effort and no provision of law to
take possession thereof by the offic-
ials and the defaulting occupant con-
tinued in possession.
The late act makes provision for
the ejectment and possession by the
State officials and provides for the
disposition of lands and properties so
acquired, and the suits are all filed
in accordance with it's provisions, and
will be followed up II settlements
are not made according to law.
Many are settling without contro-
versy when they look into the mat
ter, while some are holding out to
await further developments in the
cases.
