COMMENT IS ALL
VERY FAVORABLE
People Approve Action of
County Treasurer
Dombaugh.
No Regular Taxes Can be
Paid Without Specials
Now.

Since the publication In the Mirror
of Treasurer Dombaugh's intention
10 collect all special taxes, when the
regular taxes are paid, great deal
of favorable comment has been pass
ed. II Is well for the taxpayer 10 be
prepared. He can no longer pay his
regular tax and let the special be-
come delinquent.
A ruling received from the state
bureau of public accounting instructs
the county treasurer To collect all tax
es. He has no discretion in the mat

over to him and he is acting solely as
| a collecting agency. If the validity
! OF a special tax is disputed. the prop
erty owner has recourse In legal pro-
ceedings to restrain the collection.
The manner in which these taxes
are to be collected IS quite simple

furnished. A reply was received
stating that one set of standards had
been sent To Marion county at one
time and II tney We're not here now
1t was up to the commissioners to

awhile.
III nally Mr. Allen asked the COM

which he would make "a appointment.
The commissioners came back with
a counter proposition that Allen make

would Le fixed, Matters stood in that
position for some time. At last Mr..
