THE SALEM ExrENsIoN oUARrER

THE SALEM EXTENSION CHARTER.
All good friends of Salem were in
hopes that new charter might be
obtained of this legislature extending
the city limits, and taking in the
great expanse of city that has been
built up beyond the old city limits
during the past few years. Members
OF the Legislature have expressed
themselves as pleased with the
growth of our city and with it's
handsome appearance, and any bill
that Salem people can agree upon
would be passed without a division.
An effort should still be made to
harmonic the conflict of interests
and pass a new charter extending
the city limits. A majority of the
suburban residents want to be taken
in. 1t will be a positive hindrance
to the growth and development of
the capital city not to extend.
What are the obstacles? There
are general objections to proposed
bill, 1t leaves out several large
property owners who are now with.
in the city. Men whose former resi-
dence was in the country are now
living on street car lines. have cleo
trio lights, gas, city water, sidewalks
and sewerage. They are men we'll
off in this worlds goods, aele to pay
taxes and should not be allowed to
remain out. If anyone is to be
shielded from payment of city taxes,
1T certainly should be those least able
to pay. This charter proposes to
take in hundreds of homes of work
ing men and families of limited
means, and leaves out several gen.
tlemen of large fortune, and men
who do not especially ask to be thus

pare an unobjectionable charter.

secure a more harmonious result. A
