REBATE ON TAXES

An editorial in the Morning
News one day this week, calls at
tention to the fact, which every
property owner knows, that the
requirements of law allowing
a rebate of 5 per cent. on all
taxes paid during the month OF
July acts as a hardship some
times. The city and county taxes
coming due at the same time
causes a large amount of money
to be needed at the time when
most people are thinking of TAX
ing vacations or considering
ways to save a dollar or two. IL
does not operate SO hard upon the
larger taxpayers whose property
is rented and depended upon as
a portion of their support, This
class usually set aside the rents
of July for use as taxes. But the
man or woman who owns only
the piece of property in which
he or she lives, is the principal
sufferer. This class desires to
save the rebate, bat finds it hard.
to do so on both city and county
tax. There should be some way
in which this could be arranged
differently. 1t would not be a
serious matter to the county to.
make the time for the rebate ex-
tend to August 81, and it would
be of vast relief to many poor
taxpayers.
Of course, this matter does not
materially affect the tax layers of
this vicinity. The class that
would be benefited by an en-
largement of the time for rebate,
is the owners and renters of
farms. It's not general for our
farmers to have gotten their
wheat to market in Jaly, and
many of them have ne chance to
pay their taxes until they sell
their crops. But even this class
is not a small one. Altogether.
the people would be benefited by
some change in this matter.

ANOTHER IMPROVED ROAD

The Levy Court has advertised
for bids for the construction OF
an improved gravel road in Apo
uuinimink Hundred. This road
is to be on both sides of Town
send, running east and west.
We have no desire that our
neighbors should not enjoy q
good road, and we realize that
this proposed road would be prac-
tically the feeder of Townsend.
Probably three-fourths Of the
business coming into that town
does and will come over that
road. Therefore we see why
they want it. But THE TRAN
SCRIPT felt at the time that the
road from Middletown to Odessa
was built that a mistake was be-
ing made, and we think the same
now. On the broad proposition
that all the improved roads
should be constructed with the
end in view of having one go6d
road at some time, everybody
with whom we have talked, is
willing to agree. In other words,
there should be some plan OF
system about sxpending twenty
or thirty thousand dollars a
year. But when we come to con,
slider a particular road, we find
that personal desire overcomes
theory, and each wants a road fol
his own or neighborhoed advan
tage. While road of equal
length to the proposed one, run
ming north or south from Town
send along the State hoaa Wodlo
probably not be of near as much
benefit to the Town as the pro
posed one, it would be of move
value as a part of a system which
would in time extend from the
state line on the north to Duck
Creek on the South. The proba'
bility is that the proposed road
whlbecome,a fact, and The Tran
SCRIPT hesitated about taking the
matter up. But we are opposed
to the plan, and we want to go on
record as being opposed to this
particular part of it. We have
talked this matter over with
many prominent and thinking
taxpayers, and as stated above,
all agree in theory with US.

NOT IsEeETIMATE

MIDDLETowN, DEL. July "a, 1906.
EDrTuR or TRAEscRIPr, DEAR Sir i:
Allow me space in your valuable paper
TO express my contempt for certain
person doing business in this town, who
has undertaken to reap some of the bene-
fit OF my time, labor and money expen-
ded in the souvenir post card business.
but how much benefit lie may derive
from such an unprincipied act remains
for him. to tiad out. ] rather think the
loss Of one customer will over balance
the gain he may make in the above en-
ture.
What have reference to is this: lie
secured five Of my local Views, had an
.engraver make plates from them, and
print them on All inferior grade II cards
so that lie can retaihthpm at Tor 5 cplis
Had he employed a photographer or
taken the views himself, would have
considered that perfectly legitimate. !
think it all right for inan To hustle ard
make an honest living, bnt to try to i'm
itate and make counterfeit vi anoihers :
work for personal gain, in my opinion
does not come under the category of
honesty. bnt rather tl,at Of down right
meanness.
True, these pictures were not copy
righted, but the principle remains the
same.
Now tile people of MiddIetown well
know that am tile pioneer in 4iis art
the first one to produce local sc9lefy on
| souvenir post cards, their homes. Their
| children aud pets, to be sent all over the
United States to their friends and dea'
| ones as tokens OF loving rememberance.
We do not have to travel far to tind
beautiful scenery; there is an abundance
OF it right in our vicinity, il We only
know how to look for it aud appreciate
the beauties OF. nature.
The souvenir post card business has
turned from a craze for vulgar and
obscene pictures to love for the artistic.
The vulgar has about had its day, but
the artistic survives and promises to live
on, judging from the continuous sales ol
the latter kind.
Most people are viking to pay five
cents (the price all over the United states)
for a real photograph OF a scene they
love.
The cheap trashy haif-tones gotten uI
for the sake Of c!.tapness in imitation q
the genuine photograph may be sold -tc
some people " no have not the sense O.
taste to discover the difference, bnt car
never appeal to the artistic eye.
i thought that someone should try and
supply the long felt want for local seer cry
Pom post cards, and having love Of nature
and the photographic art, started Will
a few views OF eur town. My success
was hlstautaleous and continuous. Gra
duaIIy have added to the number d
scenes as occasion demanded.
/ Competition am willing to accepI
when carried on in an honorable manner
but for person to take my views, cop,
and sell them without consulting me il
the matter, think is rather belittleini
himself than competing with me.
| Respectfully,
/ WALTER MoNRo.
