 Warming Issued
 Warnings have been sent out by Personal Tax Collector William C.. Johnston that personal taxes must be paid or warrants will be issued Tor collection as provided by law. Tax payments have Jagged consid- erably this year. Some delinuuents have not paid during the last six years. An extra dollar must now be added to the $2 payment for each year not paid. It is estimated that total of about $3,5OO is due on all lists.
 At the end of the fiscal year. September l, 1884, HAS out of 1,5S7 on the collectors book had paid taxes on the 1883 list. Other uncollected taxes were: list of 1929 $74: list of 1880. $144: list of 1881 $2OS; list of 1932, $39O. A total of $S7S was then due on the 1888 list and $1,694 on all lists.
