To the Editors Of the Wig:
DEAR SiRs: In your paper Of yesterday expressed
the hope that would lend your aid behalf Of the
Central Railroad Company and stated that the citizens
Richmond already had s2ooO in that road on which
they had not received the first dollar in tho way Of diyi
dend, although 10 cent had been declared portion
Of the stock October last The Post of this morning,
In article IN favor OF the Road, says "the onl,
objection we have heard raised is, that thus far
The last Investment has yielded no revenue. As n
remedy proposed that steps shall be taken to render
Ii absolutely impossible that should" The obec-
ton raised is by the only one which can with
with proprie!y be urged why il is that our citizens should
not tax themselves for this Improvement First the money
previously subscribed for the purpose of extending the
Road, has to extent been expended on the
portion OF the work. and the revenues arising have
been given in the shape OF dividends TO old stockhold.
when IN fact they should have been appropriated
tho liquidation Of the debts OF the Company Secondly
our citizens are taxed enough already and see no
in throwing good money after bad which would be
the they invest their funds in this improve
ment the stock OF which is worth $780, whilst their
own IL worth lOi. lSy the way loss to under
stand the i'd of the Post that the increased tax will only
be $4,000. Agreeaby my notion the per cent pre-.
MUM which 1t contemplaes applying the payment OF
the $4,000 would be for one year only whereas the whole
$4,000 would have to be raised by increased taxation
every year aer unless indeed the city bonds keep up to
1884, which It is likely will be the case should She
