sTATEMENTE FROM TREASURER

The receipts from the payment of
taxes for the first two days has amount
ed to little over $4,000, which is
about the same amount that was col
lected in the first two weeks of last
year. This is proof that either the
tax payers of Idaho county are better
prepared this year to pay their taxes
than in former years, or that they are
commencing to realize, Especially
those who have money that is not ac-
lively working,) that the sooner their
money is paid into the treasurer 3 Of
flee, the sooner that same money com
mences working for the county in the
matter Of stopping per cent interest
on outstanding warrants, and in the
way aiding each tax payer.
If every tax payer throughout the
county who is situated in this way that
could pay his taxfs in the early part of
the tax paying season would attend to

this at the earliest convenience, il
would make material difference in
the expense of handling the office of
county treasurer and tax collector, as
well as giving the county the benefit
and use of the money for this extra
time.
| feel that if this matter was in
diligently brought to the attention of
the tax payers throughout the county
that there would be enough of them
respond, to be the means of saving
quite sum to the county, for | be-
lieve that every one of them are
shrewd enough business men and
women to take advantage of conditions
when they can be shown that it is to
their interest to do so.
Think this over, tax payers who have
money that is not actively working,
and put it to work by paying your
taxes at the earliest convenience.
