VOTE THE TAX.

The election for the railroad tax
takes place next Monday. AS We
have before said, the people OF
Alexandria incur no additional re.
sponsibility by voting this tax,
having already voted as mill tax
for ten years to this road, which
is to be RENTED in the event of
this tax being voted. Then there
is a probability that if the road is
extended to Natchez, the domicile
Of the company will be moved to
Alexandria.
Al we have remarked heretofore,
the extension Of this road to
Natcbez will produce greater aud
more lasting benefit to the people
of Alexandria and indeed Of the
entire parish of Rapides, than one
hundred times the length ever
projected or constructed before.
Hence, We urge the property tax
payers to turn out en- maSSe and
vote this tax next Monday.
