ton as the bill authorizes may he
made by the bonds of the county
or taxing districts within the
county whether they are bonds Of
that particular district or not. He
does not believe that city or NUM-
cipal bonds can be used in the
redemption of county or district
taxes. Nor does he believe that
bonds of a drainage or taxing
district covering more than one
county can be used for the pay
ment of taxes in either county.
But, SO long as the taxing district,
other than cities or nlunicipali-
ties, lies with the county, then it
is his opinion that bonds or
coupons of such districts or coun-
| ty bonds, are legal tender in the
payment and redemption of the
tax certificates held by the state
which are authorized to be so re-
deemed.
Section z provides that clerks
and other actual costs must be
paid in cash. Bonds and matured
interest coupons will be accepted
for the balance of the taxes. The
clerk will issue a receipt for the
same. The clerk will then hold
these intact and uncancelled, and
adjustments of accounts between
the counties and other taxing dis
tricts interested, shall be made at
such time as the board of county
commissioners may direct"
