The sentiment Of Carroll county, We be-
lieve, Is largely in favor Of taxing mort.
gages. We have eOnversed with but two
men who are opposed to the measure,
whilst numbers, including mortgage hold
ems, have volunteered to express their be-
lief in the justness Of such a tax.
The sentiment Of tho county, we also
believe, i favorable to the imposition Of
eapiiation tax This tax would pay $780,
600 into the treasury, would bear heavily
oa no one, and would relieve land, which
bears too great proportion Of the States
burdens.
