TAX lie TANGLE NOW?? County Treasurer'Receives Order Concerning Paying Road Tax. $1 INSTEAD OF $2 Attorney (.'encrai Orders That Treas urer .Hot.ee Regln Receiving An derson Road Tax. A matter causing untold trouble I in -Anderson county lu regard to the road tax has just been sttled and as a result. C. W. McGee, county treas urer, was yesterday tn a much ninre amiable frame of miud than he has been for some time. The trouble grew out of the fact that two years ago the code? commis sioners made a mistake and Ander son's road tax appeared as being Si no. However, the mistake was not seen for almost a year and all road taxes had been paid at the rate of S 1.00 per year. When the matter was called to Mr. McGee's attention he took lt up with the officials in Colum bia and it has lust now been adjusted. For the past month almost every man going into Mr. MiKJee's office would insist on paying his road tax and it has caueed the county treas urer much trouble, having to explain to almost every one of the taxpayers why he could not take the money. The time for taking the road tax is supposed to exp'.re on Miirch 1 but the county commissioners have determined to ex toed thl_ time until May 1. Therefore the tax will be ac cepted until that time. Mr. McGee said yesterday that Anderson people should not get this date- confused with state and county taxes,' as tho time for paying1 those expires" 'on ."Starch, lt.
