1t is q law in the economy Of
nature that all the parts which
are benefited must bear their
proportionate share Of the burden
in order to equalize and sustain
the whole. If the roots which
support and feed the forest oak
should refuse to send forth their
life giving sap to every branch
and twig the result would DO that
its beauty and symmetry would
soon DO destroyed and the tree
decay AMI die. If the blood
which flows from the seat of life
should refuse to impart its life
giving vigor to my right arm,
soon it would lose It's cunning,
fall helpless at my side ana my
whole body become u prey to
disease and death. SO ii is with
our social, commercial and eco
nomic relations, Every member
of the commonwealth must bear
its proptrtionato share Of the heat
and burden Of the day. No man
can live to himself without the
whole community suffering for
his sellishness, To tax only a
part of the citizenship Of the state
or only q part Of the property to
keep up our public roads is con-
trary to the spirit of our instttu-
tions. One of our cardinal prin-
ciples is that taxation should be
borne equally and in proportion
to the benefits conferred, but UNI
der our old road law this princi-
pie has been ignored
The time has come when all
this can be changed. The matter

vote for or against a road tax
If a majority Of the votes cast
favor a road TAX it will be the
means of changing our entire
system. A three mills tax will
be levied. This will give the
state. if all the counties should
vote for a road tax, about $500,
co., Sharp county will get some
thing near 4,800. Of this sum
the R. R. and foreign land downers
in Sharp county will pay $780,
We have stated that those who
work the roads own 10 per cent
Of the property of the state, and
therefore if a road tax should be
levied they would be required to
pay 10 per cent Of the whole
amount collected. This means
that the present road hands Of
Sharp county would be required
10 pay 10 per cent of $4,000 or
$3.50. while those who do not
work tue roads would be required
to pay $3.50. In other words,
the R. R. and other property
holders Of Sharp county come to
those who work the roads and
say to them; If you will pay
$3.50 in cash we will pay "a, 800.
Is this not a fair proposition?
Can any man be injured by it?
The R. R. and others who own
the greater part Of the property
in our county and state want
better roads, They are willing to
pay the tax, and stand ready to
with the money, What
will be the result if this offer is
rejected? 1t will be this: Those
who own 10 per cent Of the prop
erty will continue to work the
roads for the wealth of the coun-
ty who use them. 1t will throttle
our commercial and agricultural
interests. Our mental and moral
culture will continue to DO a prey
to the blighting effect Of bad
roads. Left in the thraldom Of
bad roads, what condition can be
more CALLING, more disoouraging
to the farmer? To see his family
subjected to these blighting en-
vironments often tempts him to
sell the old homestead and seek
a more o0ngenial cline.
In conclusion let mo urge upon
the reader to give this question
careful consideration. When you
have built good roads the distance
to market is shortened more than
one half, the amount of freight
which you can haul will be more
than doubled, and your wagons
and harness will last more than
three times as long, the value Of
your farms will more than double
in value and a demand created
for many thousands Of acres Of
our wild lands now worthless.
BY good roads we are redeemed
from the thraldom Of mud, rocks
and hills. BY them you make
country life and farming the most
charming and attractive pursuit
under the sun, and save to the
calling Of farming many of our
brightest young men who at this
day are anxious to get away from
the farm on account of the isola-
ton from society, church and
schools. To improve our roads
q great advance in our
1t means our ele-
walton mentally, morally and
socially, 1t means the farmer
will become independent and
happy and add to that noble
calling a charm and contentment
that can be found in no other
pursuit. p, H. WILKERsoN.
