NOTICE TO TAXPAYERS. In previous years it was the practice in the County Treasurer’s office, for the accomodation of taxpayers, who requested it, to hold their tax receipts beyond the legal time for payment of taxes and accept payment later without adding the penalty. It has even been customary to continue co accept taxes over the counter without penalty for several days after the time required for closing up the books, the idea being not to work a hardship on any taxpayer by too strict a construction of the law. The State Board of Accounts has ordered these practices discontinued, and hereafter all taxes unpaid at the expiration of the semi-annual collection periods, viz: by midnight on the first Monday of November and the first Monday in May, will have the penalty added without exception or discrimination. This is the order of the Field Examiners representing the State Board of Accounts, and there is no alternative but to obey. Hoping that all will take notice and govern themselves accordingly, I am, Very Respectfully, ( ALSON A. FELL, Treasurer of Jasper County.
