Sewerage.

At meeting of citizens held at
the Courthouse last Monday night
the report of the committee of
the Progressive League appointed
to devise ways and means of rails.
ing funds for the construction of
sewerage system in this town,
was adopted. The committee re-
commended that tax of ~ mills
for 20 years be voted by the citi-
zens and taxpayers of the town
for the purpose of raising 100000
with which to construct the sys-
tenn, and two artesian wells to in
crease the water supply of the
town.
The suggestion that the town
anticipate its revenues from the
liquor license and IN this manner
provide the funds necessary to
complete the work, without the
levy of an additional tax, was not
regarded as practicable owing to
the uncertainty of the present
high license being maintained by
the Police Jury, and the conse-
quent uncertainty of yearly rev.
enue sufficiently large to meet the
payments On the sewerage system
as they fell due. The law makes
it obligatory upon the Police Jury
tn 41Y tho amonnt of thn licanse
yearly, and while they could main
tain the present high rate, or even
increase it if they saw fit, there
are some who think that the Jury
would, on the contrary, reduce the
license tax and thus cut off the
very source of revenue depended
upon by the town to construct the
sewerage system, hence, the more
certain plan of raising the neces-
sary amount by tax was agreed to.

Should this bill pass the senate in

create additional state boards for eX-
amining and licensing IN various oc-
cupations and professions haye made
their appearance and claimed the
authority OF the state for interfering
with the liberty of the citizen, in his
right to pursue his special avocation
as accountant or nurse or suveyOr or
butcher or decorator, and so on. But
in every instance but one, the PROPOSE
tiOn has been turned down, en- oDedi-

community interests, save possibly In
very exceptional cases, and that such
multiplication OF unnecessary officials

A number of propositions to change
the tax laws, some of which threaten
ed serious disturbance of the revenues,
haye been wisely put aside, notably
one TO transfer from the state trX
lands to the homestead and forestry
areas all descriptions delinquent five
years TO the sacrifice of large amounts
of taxes due and the material reduc-
tion of state and local revenues, and
another to compel retransfer TO origin

tion that has been purchased for
taxes, upon which through oversight
some tax had remained unpaid enabl-
ing such owner often to profit by his
own delinquency, and to come with
out cost into possession Of improve

than these. was the refusal of the
house to endorse a bill which provided |
that norl h and south railroads 10 the
lower peninsula shou d be excepted |
from the operation Of the law, already
upon the statute books, limiting pas
scnger fares To two cents per mile up
on railroads earning from passengers
more than three thousand dollars per
mile, and tw" and half cents uron
earnings 1f two thOuSand dollars to
three thousand dollars. The birds OF
evil omen that croak and croak
through some Of the organs hostile to
the republican party, were pfofuse
with prophecies that the machine
alliance with the railroads. would
pass this bill, but their prophecies
aud their wishes were disappointed.

along similar liIeS Tee house stood
