Counry Taxation. — We exhibited, a . few days ago, a table showing the large de. linquency of tax payments, in this county, and recommended a remedy.maimer in which property is described in the assessment rollis sufficient to deter bidders and we think the Board of Supervisors ‘do well to refuse pay to the Assessor for work improperly performed. We believe that not & tenth of the taxes since the organization of county could have been collected if the assésaments had been submitted to legal teste: The description is almost invariably deficient. . The’ knowledge . bu that taxes cannot be collected upon insufficient assessments has made many men negleet to pay their taxes; and after a few judgments against tax-titles, such as has been rendered in our District Court and inthe Supreme Court, few will risk the buying. i Sacramento bill does away with this difficulty by legalizing the assessments, and forbidding any pleadings by the defendant that the assessment is imperfect. It may be a good idea: to use the surplus of the special fund to pay: off the indebtedness Of the Indigent sick fand, instead of turning it into the general fund. Indeed, we think it far preferable to an increased tax But one clags of cases consigned to the county hospital should be excluded and the pressure on tha fund would~ be lessened. s. We believe the Board knows to what we allude, for its attention has been called to} matter. At Sacramento no such cases mitted unless the sufferer is totelly. awl , te saber, saat makin Miss @elebrated actress.. The . e eed .
