We hn. the law OB that subject will be fully understood, and that the people oJ thosi townships will carefully Weigh the subject before deeiding against the appropriation Complaint b made that the expense ; of the new curt house will to add to I oar taxation as to matte our taxes burdensome. That, is aa error. Every year our taxable property increases. and that makes the t- rcoatage of taxes less. Our taxes this year are five per cent, less than they were last year A levy of taxes to aid in completing a railroad can not b lu ,r, b it will be a gain. Let us sec : We cannot be compelled I) pay any tax until 182 and 187Ä ine money ; goea into the county treasury. Not over onc per cent can be levied in each year, and only two per cent altogether, j wo pan oi ine money can ue paiu . m BW a i a 1 ! a : over one-half, and not that until the railroad company has fist expended an equal amount on the road.

I more taxable pr pertyto aid m paying taxes and reducing the percentage ol taxation, so no one will lose anything by the appropriation. Again, times are hard, and prices loWJ and th re is not much market for anything, and many men are at of employment Tho budding of the road will set many men to work in those to unships j will create a dem and for our produce; will for a time increase our market and stimulate oir business; and as the road will OOSl many thousand dollars more than tho appropriation, it will throw in circulation right anion.; us, very considerable -urns of money which we now need. Again, by this appropriation each man contributes in proportion to hi taxable property towards building up a great thoroughfare to aid in increasing the taxable property cf the eounty, as all are benefitted alike, and the more avenues oi' outlet we have the more we cheapen what we have to huy and bring in. and the more market WC build up for what WO haVC to Bell and Send off; and the more lines of transportation wc have the more competition there is in freights, and the higher prices we get because it 0 's the buyer leas to taue it away. Again, the increase ot' taxation can not be felt, because it ia ko small In proportion to the whole sum that it will not be noticed. If we build the road. (ami wo will if the people say so) at least (0,000 will be expended among us. If we tax ourselves $20,000 WC shall pay out among oursel.es that same 120,000, sard 140,000 of other aooplea money, and add that much to our circulation. The people will have paid out altogether $20,000, and will harr

I received $60, 000. The road will add ! about $120,000 of taxable property to j the two townships, which will be fbrer-

, or taxed thereader t aid the people in paying the public expense, while the people will onry pay tax for two years t- :üd in building that road, which adds six times the ralae of the tax paid to ! ,he t:,x aWti property.
