Let Monroe Alone.

Senator Brewster has introduced in the
Senate bill providing for the assessment
and collection Of taxes and licenses in the
city Of Monroe ''due the parish OF Qua
chita.'' This bill is ostensibly intended to
repeal the Act of 1873, exempting property
and persons in Monroe from the payment |
of parish taxes and licenses in considera !
ton ofthe city assuming the payment OF
costs and fees in criminal cases originating
in its own limits; but, in reality, the pur-
pose is to enforce tho collection of taxes o,
licenses ''due" the parish since 1872; other
wise there Ia no moaning or sense in til.
word due. The Police Jury, we observe,
has made Il move in furtherance of Brews
ter's bill, and appointed committee o:
three, viz: Messrs. Stubhs, Ennemoser and
w. r. Hardy to memorialize the Legislature.
in its behalf.
What advantage the parish will derive
from the proposed change does not appea'
| very clear. The revenue will. it is true. hs
| increased. but so will the expenses. Mon
| roe now is no expense to the parish, but lie,
| the city be made to contribute to tho reve
nue. of the parish, and equal justice will
make her an equal partner in tho benefits.
Is the parish willing to pay two or three
thousand dollars per annum for bridges
and street work In Monroe? If not, why
,
especially when she does this by voluntary
subscription, and repairs and opens streets
with her own funds? Monroe take care of
a number of paupers during the year, pays
funeral expenses and costs of coroner's in
quests; is the parish to relieve Monroe OF
| these burthens"
| We hardly know whether the parish will
be benefited really, or not, by tho pro-
posed arrangement, but we do know Mon
! roe will have double bnrtI,en placed upon
her trade and her property for which the
consumer will he expected to pay. And
we believe that whatever increase in
revenue the parish acquires, Gfthere shall
| be ANY, viii DO absorbed, as the revenue
| has been for years, i'll costs, fees, salaries
and proiiigate expenditure of the parish
! funds. If the parish ia benefit to Mon
| roc, IA it ia, so is Monroe help to the par
ish. The town il payinga tax ofone pei
cent, and licenses as heavy as those OF tho
| parish, and this money is expended for the
government and improvement of the parish
| site, III which every citinon of the parish
should feel pride and an interest. The
city limits, by Radical legislation, have
been extended to take i'll large territory
and to keep tho streets in order and have
good drainage is q heavy tom of expense
Our police department ia expensive, hut i,
