We cite the matter of a contract with Cook and Steffen for the collection of delinquent taxes for 1922, Morgan and Hall and the men named above. These parties were linquent taxes, both upon the rolls of the prior thercto. There were some and the parties of the commissions for collections a sum equal to the penalty and interest fixed by law, and in addition travel pay as part of the expense of collection. existence of the contract all delinquent taxes voluntar- ily paid at the office of the county treasurer were to be regarded as collections of Cook and Steffen and commissions paid thereon. were given authority by the commissioners to seize and sell real and personal property for taxes | Bush and Sev ‘ Pe | and Picinich. made in 1924, between the board, consisting of Scott, | oer | NATIONAL LEAGUE | CHICAGO, June 12,--Ul- } At Chicago— R.
