Spokane's Delinquent Tax List

The Freeman's Labor Journal of Spokane, Wash., comes to us with 18 pages of six columns each of delinquent taxes, each column averaging a hundred or more lots of land, all lying within the county of Spokane. This makes not less than 10,800 pieces of real estate on which has been asked judgment and order of sale for delinquent taxes. This is doubtless the result largely of the spirit of speculation of which Spokane suffered a few years ago. It was a local outbreak of the land-hunger fever afflicting the nations. The delinquent tax list with many disappointed hopes is the result.
