MICHIGAN JTAX CROOKS
More Suits Filed in Van Buren
County, Michigan, to Remove
Clouds on Titles Than in Any
Other County In the United
States.
Land Sharks and Others 8o Bold In
Their Juggling of Books and De
scriptions That Unele 8am
May Get Them.
There nro moro suits filed in tho
courts ot Van, Buren County, Michi
gan, to romovo clouds from land titles
than thero nro filed for that purposo
In any other county In tho United
States, including thoso containing tho
largest cities in tho country,
Thero havo been moro professional
land thieves at work In Van Buren
County than in any other county in
tho United States, nnd thoy aro still
at work.
Men connoctcd with certain lines
of business and using officials eloctod
in somo townships as their tools aro
engaged all of tho tlmo in clouding
tho titles of honest and bona fldo land
owners.
This fact has dono moro to keep tho
county back than any other thing.
Tho bad namo given to this part ot
the Stato ot Michigan by tho land
crooks is bocoming a by-word through
out tho nation.
Mnny ot thoso crooks claim land
on tho strength of tax titles ob
tained nftor tbo rightful owners had
paid tho taxes through Juggling ot
descriptions and tax books.
Efforts aro to bo mado to roach
somo of them through Federal action,
nB tho peculiar hold thoy havo on local
authorities precludes hope of reform
in that direction.
Victims of thcuo bands ot crooks
nro ndvlscd that if thoy llvo outsido
of Michigan thoy can bring suit
against olllclals, backers, brokers or
others who dnmago thorn or tholr in
terests in tho U. S. courts.
Tho citizens of Vnn Buren County
should wako up to tho situation and
retlro theso gratters to tho ponitcn-
tlary or to somo othor placo whoro
their public records cannot injuro tho
community.
Vnn Buren County is nnturally rich
In soil, dollghtful in climato and geo
graphically ldoal for success in every

Its prospects hnvo been blighted.
Tho testimony of all outsido pooplo

This result Is obtained by u method

of careful researches iimilu elnee 1007.
