He reports that of thiriy-two signers to the letter, .ftteen of them arc taxed from .0fy to eighty cents year each, while eight pay less than fre do}lars each, none pay as much as THIRTY dollars, and only four of the entire thlrty-two are assessed for more than ten If there is any increase in the rate oi taxation to pay the bonds, these men will De rulned, that's clear.
