CHAPTER III.

MESSLS. EDITOkS;--
To a citizen who has lived III Ply
mouth for ten years past, and cspe-
ciaIly for the last four or five years,
TO know the fact that the town has
not increased in population over 40
or so human beings. is humiliating
But such is the fact. The censxS
taken few days ago shows this fact,
and whoever lives to see four years
from this date will find that the town
viii contain less inhabitants than it
does to day, unless something is
done to redeen its character. Why
is it THAT one third of lis tax payers
refuse to pay their taxes for last
year: because they say that the taxes
are Lot collectable and we wont pay
them.
Why is it that year after year the
taxes expended on Our corporation
roads have net improved them and
the property on them?
Why is it that one year dirt is Ia.
ken away from certain streets at n
great expense, and the next year dirt
is taken back again or the very same
street?
Why is it that tax payers, year af
ter year are compelled to furnish 4
hand or the money to fix up roads in
front Of peoples property who have
lots for sale, and those Who are com
PEELED to pay never receive /: cents
worth on the street they reside, in
fixing or repairing roatls? Because
am Republican and he is Dem
ocrat, Or '-y6u tickle NE and i
will tickle you"
Why is it to-day that Plymouth is
the dirtiest and most filthy town in
.EdianaS
Why is !! that almost every alley
in the town is nuisance, as bad as,
if not worse than, hog sly?
Why is it that everybody, without
lex or nindrance. is allowed to pile
up plies of wood in front of their
property in the street:
Because there is no law to stop
then, and no officer TO enforce tie
law.
Why is it that hogs arc allowed to
run rip, tear, root. squeal and stink
all over our beautiful town?
Because if q hog law is passed
some Of the hogs will get pounded
and others get into the pound; some
of them might belong to Democrats;
therefore let 'em rip, tear and be-
smear the side walks, for they have
just as much right to the walk as
any lady in THIS town.
Why is it that boys, almost every
night, are allowed to run, rip, tear
and below up and down our business
streets like so many wild bulls. and.
in two instances knock down young
lag les?
Because Plymouth is 4 model
town, no law 10 stop them. don't
need any laws, therefore, boys, you
may rip and tear and swear rs much
as you please.

The Country gentleman says it has
often urged the Introduction ofthe
red Norfolk Polled cattle Of England
into this country, believing them to
possess very good quality for the
dairy. with aptitude to fatten. 1t al
so thinks well Of the Galloway and
other Scotch pollcd cattle. There
is. as yet. very little demand in the
United States for these; less than we
think them entitled to. Like our able
contemporary, however, we are not
disposed to lay very great stress up
on their lack of herns rs recon-
mendatiOn.
