Chesapeake City Is worth in round
numbers, S4oo.ooo The present tax
, rate 20 cents on the 500, or 81 on
the s. 600 The total amount received
| therefore Is $1,000 The old tax rate
, was 90 cents on the $Ioo, or $500 on
the 81 900. The total aTount received
i from the old tax was $i2oo. The diff
ference between the amount received
now and the amount received before is
/ $500. Now, what must be done with
this extra Sloos First OF all bond OF
$500 must be paid off each year and in
tercs. at s per cent on the remaining
bonds. Seven oi the bonds for $500 are
yet unpaid. therefore the interest for
this year win he 5 per cent. OF $500 or
SI7s. The $500 for the bond that ma.
lures plus the SI75 for interest makes
SOS. The town receives $500 more
than il formerly received, and out OF
the extra 500 il must pay SOS Can
il be donel Is it possible to pay
debt of S67s with $500, Some one
might say do less work on the town.
Can we afford to 40 less work on the
town. where by so doing we may be
involved n another law suit No, we
must use the SI2oo as formerly for the
| running expenses oi the town aud we
must IN some way raise sufficient
money 10 meet the difference between
500 and the amount oil the bond-Ssoo
plus the interest on the bonds not
yet maturcd. Let us look at this qucs-
ton IN the right way: we have bond
Ell debt OF $500 yet remaining against
the town; the law says these bonds
shall be paid annually II June Let us
not rcpudate the obligations entered
into by the Board in power at the time
the bonds were issued, but let us meet
an honest but unfortunate debt like
honest men.
