This was made quite a fete and In

TENTH ARTlcLE-The Collection Of
Taxes.

AS explained in the preceding arti-
Gle, the county auditor computes the
rate OF levy necessary to produce the
aggregate amount of money required
by the four separate taxing authori-
ties, and extends the tax against each
description of land and each individ-
ual assessed for personal property.
The auditor makes a separate tax
list for each taxing district of the
county showing ownership and de
scription of property, with columns
for the valuation and for the various
items of taxation included in the to-
tai
The tax lists are turned over to the
county treasurer by the auditor on or
before the first Monday in January Of
each year, and the treasurer proceeds
to receive and collect the taxes there
in levied.
On receiving the tax lists from the
auditor the treasurer, if directed by
the county board, is required to give
three weeks published notice in a
newspaper, specifying the rate of tax.

dition under command of Capt. Robert
f. Scott, left the explorers still $50
miles from the South pole on Jan. 8,
polar experts here are strongly of the
opinion that Captain Scott will achieve
the great object for which he set out.
The fact that his message brought
lack to New Zealand by the Terre
Nova declared that he was remaining
N the Antarctic for another winter in
order to complete his work, is taken
as an indication that the party is in
good health and abundantly supplied
ana IN position to continue the
march to the pole.

nose familiar with Antarctic explora.
tlon EXPRESS the opinion that he would
IiooaEly reach the pole before the
END Of January. Among those favor
Ing tins view are DR.. Fridtjof Nansen,
t noted Norwegian explorer, who, in
IN ?ntsrVieW at Christiania gave ex-
p-easlcn to this belief.
A striking point of difference he
tWaen Amundsen and Scott was that
= sheer luck. Amundsen was greatly
favored by the weather in the later
stasss OF his journey during the early
Fart of December, while Scott. at al
iIHoIlmately the same time, met
storms OF great severity Amundsen
was able to cover his last $50 miles
in l 0 or II days. Thus, with anything
but the most unfavorable weather.
Captain Scott could cover the distance
Which separated him from the pole on
January 8 well within the remaining
Gays OF the month. .Amundsen reach
ca the pole on Dec. IA and during the
days he was occupied in making obser-
vatlons there the Englishmen were
