The attention of our readers ESPECIALLY
the ladies' is called to the advertisement
of Lyman & Allen, the well-known and
popular Burlington dry goods firm. BY
far dealing and keeping in stock the
best goods that can be found in the
State and equal to that found in the
larger cities, this firm has built up a
trade second to none in the State.
Among its many customers are our
Lamoille county people, who, either in
person or by letter, trade with this
house and are always satisfied with the
manner in which they are treated. The
ladies will be pleased to read their
advertisement, which is a spring an
nOuncement. We assure all that they
would find everything as represented
and whatever the MeSSrS. LYMAN &
Allen NAV say can be depended upon.
1t is to be hoped that all the tax payers
in town will be present at the special
meeting next Saturday afternoon, at
which time an effort is to be made to
reScind the act whereby it was voted to
pay $4,000 of our bonded debt. There
are many differences of opinion regard
ing the matter. Many feel that we
ought to begin to get this load off of us.
! inaSmuch as we have already paid S44,-
500 and only reduced the amount of the
| bonded debt $4,000. There are Others
who think $4,000 too much to pay at
one time, but are willing to go 5000 ;
while there are those who are not will
| ing to pay anything-juSt as soon the
| debt would remain as 1t is as to make
any effort to pay up. The plea is made
! that it would distress many who find it
hard work to pay their taxes. On the
| other hand, inquiry is made when shall
we find better time ?" To be sure, il
will be just as hard Doubtless harder
to pay in the future. Johnson and Nor
riStOWn, the former by a tax of 81. 10
and the latter by one of s. Is, are man
! fully paving off their debt. Is it any
easier for them than it would be for us
| Consider the matter calmly and thought
| fully, taxpayers, and see which is best
| for us to do; to get out of debt and
thereby reduce our taxes, or remain in il
and continue to pay big tax, the larger
part of which will be to pay interest
money.
