A Real Tax Collector

The Milton Gazette says:
I'm order to make the payment of
taxes as unobjectionable as possible,
the Milton city tax collector Mr..
Norris, who, by the way, is a pleas
ant, hkeable gentleman, Is making q
the tax books with him and urging the
people to pay their taxes. The fell
low that won't pay his taxes when
the collector saves him the trouble Of
going out of his place of business to
do so, is evidently not much of a tax
paying enthusiast"
We doubt seriously whether Milton
is mourning over not being able to
collect it's personal property tax, or
because its taxpayers are delinquent.
Certainly the plan is one that should
operate to make property listings fair,
and payments practically sure.
The closer you come to the people
the more nearly you will find them
paying their just part of all tax inn
positions. 1t is the man who never
sees an official who pays no regard
to tax potices' in the papers. The
man who knows the tax collector 10
coming to his house in person to col
lect what is due, incidentally to see
that the proper returns have been
be far wrong in his payments.
In days gone by the tax collector
actually was what his name implies,
and he rode the county and collected,
actually Today like Matthew, he
merely ''sits at the receipt of custom"
and 1t has almost got to point where
those who do not care to make a vol
untary" donation to the expense of
government, don OF pay a cent.
We abolished the county treasurer
as a useless go-between and expense
to the taxpayer. If the tax collector is
merely to sit and receive graciously
what is brought to him, why not, also,
have the tax money paid in at the
bank window, and get rid of another
costly official? OF course, if, like the
city tax official of Milton, he goes
out and really collects, he is going to
be really valuable in the next few
years, for with the amount OF tax
money to be raised to meet the de-
mands laid on US by the last legisla-
ture, it is going to behoove us to see
that every man pays his part. We
believe the Milton plan, exemplified,
! would be a money saver to the state.
