specializing as 10 what action the
county court and town authori'
ties should take in regard to the
proposed rail road bridge to the
new B. go. depot. The TELE,
GRAM reporter heard . most
spirited argument on the subject
between two taxpayers last
Monday. Both were from the
county and they went for each
other in a vigorous and animated
fashion.
MIRA Began the conversation
by saying he was opposed to the
county being taxed to increase
the wealth of other people and
if Clarksburg wanted bridges or
if the B. & o. wanted a bridge,
let them build it but they must
not ask the taxpayers Of the
county to do 1t.
B-Iam opposed To needless
taxation but the station will be
moved as surely as we stand here
and the people must get to it
some way.
Al am opposed TO taking it
away from Jackson's land. 1t is
not fair TO injure Moore Jackson
that way.
B.-Yes, and l was very much
opposed to being taxed to help
Jackson build q railroad. He
was very anxious to get q rail.
road subscription saddled on to
the taxpayers last August and
he finally got it. Now he goes
back on all he said then and
comes up with the cry you must
not help the B. & O."
A-Well the people OF the
county do not need the bridge
and they ,oiu not be taxed to build
it. 1t will just help make Judge
COTS land more valuable.
B-Well Judge Golf will pay a
pretty good share of the tax and
the town of Clarksburg will in
deed pay a very large share of it.
Did it ever occur to you that the
railroads help pay our county
taxes 2
A-No l know nothing about
that.
b Suppose we look that up in
the Auditors report. Here it is,
The B. & o. R. R. pays almost
one hundred and twenty-five
thousand dollars taxes annually
in West Virginia. This vast
amount of money is collected by
the few counties through which
the road passes. Harrison coun.
ty has collected thousands and
thousands of dollars from them.
Why they have paid taxes to
build bridges in every nook and
corner of the county. They paid
more than any other corporation
in the county to build bridges at
Shinnston, Lumberport and
many other places. They helped
to build the county court house,
Here is the total assessed value

on which they have for years
past AND will for years to come
be taxed to keep up our schools,
bridges, roads, &c, in every part
of the county.
A-Well let them build this
bridge themselves.
B-I understand some parties
already want to build it. But
they will put a toll on it and it
will be used more than any other
bridge in the whole county. There
will be a great deal of complaint
if it is made toll bridge. Three
round trips across it with a team
would run up to about 60 cents
while less than so cents per
capita would pay for the bridge
and leave it free for all the PEG.
pie all the time.
A-But it is not fair for the
people of Johntown, Bull Skin,
Bridgeport and other places to
have to help pay for the bridge.
B-Do you forget that the R.R.
and the town people help pay
for improvements in other parts
of the county. How much tax
