Debts and High Taxes in Moline.

The reckless expenditures in Moline
have brought what anybody might expect
high taxes, and now the people begin to
squirm, and growl about their taxes.
Several meetings of tax payers have been
held, to resist illegal taxes, and to try and
compel the large corporations to pay the
taxes which they have thus far avoided by
litigation.
Mr.. Kerns, Esq, has written very SEN
sible letter (what he writes is generally
sensible, logical. and concise) in which.
without discussing the legality Of the as
sessments, he says:
IF we incur debts we must pay them /:
and we will not try to avoid their payment
if we are honest. If we would decrease
our taxes we must cut down expenses, II
we make an outcry for improvements, and
force our officials to cut down hills and fill
up hollows, the day of reckoning will come
Some of the men who are now most bitter
in their denunciation of high taxes did al
they could two years ago to create an ad-
ditional debt of $4,000 for water works
which, if we had them now, would not bt
worth farthing to US for present pur
poses. Scores of our taxpayers, who arr
groaning under the burden of their heavy
taxes assisted in fastening upon US deb
of $4,000 TO aid in building the Rockford
railroad. For this we all have TO suffe
to- day. These cases are brou ght forwar'
that we may profit by the past.
LET us all, in the future. do what W
can to cut down expenses. If this is don
our taxes will be diminished; but if we in
