Collecting Taxes. _â€" (‘uo of the most absurd customs prevailing in Canada is the wonder of collecting the muncipal tows, by which the honest citizen is placed at a disadvantage, and the dis- l honest one is paid a bonus. It is in this way :---a collector is appointed whose duty wh he sends me to school law Mr. McRae cal s_to my reiiicinbruuce the fact that on a previous occasion he did treat me as a proper visitor. but 1 do not require to remind Mr. hlcllhe that whether or not he treated me as a'proper visitor is not the point.

Mr. Mcllac has is to go to the citizens and ask them for been with me the most insinuating to take their taxes. The Council tells the collector that the whole of the taxes must be collected by a Certain fixed date. The collector tentiou.

The Ho declines to pay. The Collector gives him no trouble, and the council extends the date for a couple of months. The collector calls again on the dishonest citizen, who again refuses to pay, the C-Llllllcll extends the time for the collec- tion- This process goes just as long as the council has power to “ extend. the time," and the consequence is that whilst the honest citizen is made to pay up at fiist, the dis. honest citizen has twelve months’ credit. Speaking advisedly We say that it would be. 1- ie w‘sest course for all persons to refuse to pay taxes until refusal is no longer possible, tor the present system is unjust. It is more- over a monstrous absurdity. “'liy should the Council pay a collector to do what each citizen can or ought to do himself. If John Jones owes a fellow citizen a debt, he calls on that citizen and pnys it. But. in the matter of muncipal taxes he doesn't do any- thing of the hi (I, he waits until a corpor- ate otlicer who receives a high salary, calls on him for the money he owes. Thus the honest citich is paying his share of an ofiicial's salary \vliose'dnty to wait on the dishonest citizen and ask him for the money he owes. Uur Cousins on the other side of the lake manage things much better. They have no collector of muncipal taxes nor any similar absurdity. The council fixes a date for the payment of the taxes. The tax bill is posted to each tax payer and it is the duty of the tax payer to call on the Treasurer and pay his taxes before the date allixed, If be i does not do so, he pays interest on the amount, and if it is not. paid within a. giwn time, a distress warrant is issued by the proper olllccr, whose mileage and fees aie paid by the ' seized, thus those who give trouble have the privnege of paying the expenses. There is“ no fuss about. the matter.cacli citizen is treat-' ed justlyy the law applies 39 each alike, the collector s siliiry ls savediand Chiâ€"taxes are ' collected in good time. systems, and who will not laugh at the monstrous absurdity of the Canadian plan.
