Tax Carried by q Sweeping Majority

Tax Carried by Sweeping Majority.
The vote in Lincoln township last
Tuesday in aid of the Grinnell,
Cedar Falls & Winona Railroad re-
suited as follows:
Whole No. OF votes cast, 20
For the Tax, 81
Against the Tax, IL
Majority for the Tax, Il
This expression Of the people of
Lincoln has no uncertain meaning.
They have carefully studied their in
tcrests and acted accordingly. 1t is
step wisely taken and will, we
doubt not, quadruple the wealth and
population of that township in three
years. Lincoln contains as much
good land az any township in our
county, and the settlers are II early
all euterprising men, alive 10 their
interests as their vote indicates. -
Many of them served ~. s" three
years or during the war;" and are
educated up to that liberal go ahead
ativeness so peculiar to old soldiers.
Lincoln has done her duty molly
and brsvely toward this enterprise,
now let the other townships follow
suit.

The number of pupils added to the

The number Withdrawing or los,

We regret the amount Of irregular
ity, evidenced by the average daily
absence and the number of with~
drawals and forfeited membership,
but as this Is the season for gdrden-
ing and house cleaning, these are
doubtless, apparently good reasons
for n large portion of il; bat for that
portion caused. by losing an entire
day TO witness the cntye of Circo-

the spending of day around an

crowd as generally eongrcgate there,
calculated for either the intellectual
or moral training OF our youth.

MEssRs. EDITORS IL notice an
article in the L0Wd State Reporter of
the 10th inst, signed "Anti.Tax, in
which the writer evidently lakors to
misrepresent the proceedings of
Railroad meeting held in our town
on Saturday evening last. Belev-
ing that truth is more potent than
falsehood," l will state that several
gentlemen from Cedar rails 10y invi-
tation Of some of onr citizens, attend
ed said meeting, and were requested
to give their views in regard to rail-
road matters, which they did in
fair, gentlemanly manner, treating
all with due respect. "Anti-Tax"
Indirectly charges them with at
tempts to practice duplicity upon our
people, By stating that the tax was to
be paid in three insiallments. He
says, "before they got through, it
leaked out that all three installments
were to be paid at once, and that
with our next taxes" They did
state, that the residents of our town
would be allowed to pay in three
payments, and were ready to furnish
guarantees from the company, sufii-
cient to satisfy any man, who is not
stupidity ignorant or blindly preiu-
diced. The important discovery of
which the writer speaks, was not
mentioned in the meeting, AMI must
have originated in the writer's fertile
brain, or was manufactured to order
by the printers ID. The meet
ing passed off rather smoothly with
the exception, which / regret to say,
of an occasional sneering and un-
gentlemanly remarks from some of
our citizens in reply TO our Cedar
Falls friends, until a late hour, when
few of the citizens of Mt. Vernon
became very personal, calling up
each others antecedents, which
aroused a combatiye feeling and cul-
minated in fight.
"Anti>Tax" would lead the public
to believe that Cedar Falls men were
engaged in the row, but they had
nothing to do with 1t, except to look
on and mourn over the frailties of
/ fallen human nature.

SABULA, ACKLEy & DAKOTA TAX
IN GRUNDY.-The five per cent. tax
IN aid of this proposed road was car
ried In Colfax, Lincoln and Palermo
townships, Grundy county, last FRI
day. The Ackley Mirror thinks 1.-The
result in those townships settles the
question of local aid and insures the
construction of the road, as soon as
the engineers can drive the grade
stakes. This matter of engineering
has always appeared to us nexplica-
BILE. Two corps are at present at
work between Monmoth, in Jackson
county, and Marion. In lam county.
What difficulties there arc between
the above points, would seem TO US,
as an outsider, more nominal than
real. Should similar obstacles be
found west of the Cedar river, our
Grundy county friends need not look
for the engineers for several years.
Our faith In the road Is undated but
as for fixing a time forthe arrival OF

OUR EITY INDEBTEDNESS We
learn that our City Indebtedness Is la
such shape that it may be bonded at
a low rate of interest by paying n
part of the principal each year. At
present it amounts to about $50, 200.
This is by 10 means large. Scores
Of our neighbors lead US. Cedar
Rapids has debt of SIS, 900, and
yet was never more prosperous
Most Of our city liabilities have been
in law for years and have seemed to
be in such an indefinite shape that it
has been impossible to ascertain the
amount or come near the correct fig
ures. Would 1t not be wise policy to
get it out of law and put it in such
shape that our people might know
the exact condition of our finances.
Many have supposed our indebted
ness enormous, and reports TO that
effect have been damaging to the
prosperity of our city.

STEAM FIRE. ESGINE.-The GA

by Engine, manufactured at Seneca
Falls, New York, was in town last
week, when the contract was closed
for said machine. 1t is to be deliver.
ed within thirty days. and after be-
ing tested by committee, If the re-
suit is satisfactory, 1t will be accept
ed. Whether 1t was wisdom to pur.
chase steam instead of hand engine
we are not prepared to decide, but We
believe the Mayor and couEcilmen
have been governed by their best
judgments in the matter, after care
full investigation of the merits of the
engines. Mayor Townsend has CIV
ell much time and attention to the
matter, to post himself on the merits
of the hand and steam engines, both
by observation and correspondence.
1he terms OH which the engine Is
purchased are liberal and reasonable,
although 1t seems like large invest
ment for our city. 1t is of the same
make as the one now in use in Cedar
Rapids, and a citizen writing from
there, says:
We regard the purchase of the Sen
eca Falls engine as good invest
ment. 1t has paid for itself, and
more. We have always been able to
| get stream on a fire in from sir to
ten minutes after the alarm. Our
people could not be induced to part
with IL.
| We are glad to announce, ut last,
the purchase of an engine, and we
trust 1t will prove a judicious in
vestment,
