The First Day Of Taxes

City Treasurer Seyler collected $1,362.96 taxes yesterday, the first day of tho December tax collection. On the first day last December, the amount collected was only about half as much, $693.26. A year ago there were no dog taxes paid until Dec. 8, but taxes were paid on six or seven dogs yesterday. The total dog tax collected last year was $327, and it looks as if a better record might be made this year. The first day of the July collection of taxes brought in $1,649.04 and the last day of the summer collection amounted to $8,835.80.
