1t is folly to mention such words as
'incapaoity, guardianship ''grab-
bling y TRAITORS, " or loyalty in connec-
ton with the proposition. They are but
ear marks to catch the prejudices of the
unthinking, and are the subtle ways
OF saying, Don't NEEDLE with me,
I'm nicely fixed as l am.
Ihe Commissioners have reported o bill
which is almost excessively favorable to
Deeriag Two wards for Deering, and
the two combined have fewer voters than
either of Wards One or Seven in Port
land. This means TWO -ninths in repre-
s9nGation in the city government, on the
school committee, and elsewhere; while
the population OF Deering would warrant
representation of but about one-seyenth,
and the valuation, about one ninth. OF
course behring's growth will have ten
derry to rapidly lessen this disparity, and
the Commissioners took this into &C
count.
Next to the office holders and poll
ticians, the farmers, and those who reside
in the more sparsely populated parts OF
Deering, have been most afraid of annex
alton. They have ielt that the taxes of 70
large city would be hurdensome to them.
AiiOSS 4SgtIS GC5 ETOQNtIlGSE. nay lI4SDtkS,
you are already attached to the better or
worse fortunes of rapidly growing vii
lage community, which Is yearly requir-
ing greater expenditure of money, from
which you do not receive perhaps, as
much benefit as you think you should.
AS this community grows and causes the
city debt to increase to provide for its
Improvements, it necessarily at the same
time mortgages your farm together with
the rest CT tie city. There has undcubt-
eddy been an increase of about $50 600 in
behring's debt and liabilities this year, if
we include the cost OF the new school
house, but not the finishing of Forest Az
enue.
Now I ask, is 1t not for your advantage,
before you ar swanped by this growing
debt, 10 annex yourselves to o wealthy
and closely populated city. which has
larger valuation to bear the taxes which
must eventually pay this debt and fur
nish these improvements In Deering; es-
pecially since this large and wealthy sec
ton is already itself provided with these
improvements? Beware lest the condi-
tions of Deeripg become such in the near
future that Portland wilK be unwilling to
come TO her assistance. Today we can
make a fair offer Another years in
crease of $50, 900 and Deering will have
reached her five per cent limit. What
then? Her only resort will be high taxes,
ana you must Chen Degln 10 pay one nd
der. Delays are dangerous, and the OPP
portunity is now
And, in conclusion. when again win
the opportunity be as fair. just and
equitable in every way rs now? The
debts are practically equal, and we are
assured OF our schools, and especially
of our High school, with representa-
tion in wards certainly as favorable as
we can ever expect. Citizens of Deering
ought to be satisfied with the report of
the Commissioners, and they ought to
take advantage Of it.
