BY the report of the commission on
taxation recently issued we observe that
Wilmington enjoys the satisfaction of
paying the highest rate Of taxation for
schools OF any town in the county and
one OF the highest in the state. Brattle
boro has the lowest rate, 40 per cent,
while we pay 70 cents on dollar OF the
grand list, costing over $1,000. Everyone
is willing to pay his tax of course but
some of the voters are quietly considering
whether we are getting the worth of our
money. If we have not in the past we |
hope to in the future.
