Another Misleading Statement


So much has been said relative to
the expenses connected with Broad
street paving and so many false reports
issued, or rather circulated, calculated
to deceive the taxpayers, that we pub
lished in the PRESS recently a state
ment of the Borough financial condi-
tion on July 18th, 1910, over the sigma
ture of Mr.. E. d. White, our efficient
and capable Borough Treasurer, who
certainly had the proper data at hand
to verify his statement. The Burgess.
or even any taxpayer could secure the
statement just as readily as THE PRESS.
This report was issued July 18, 1910,
there being of course the August bills
to add to the disbursements. all work
under construction having been COM
pleted as ordered or contracted for by
the Borough.
We notice in last weeks East EN-
porium Independent an open letter
from Burgess Marshall, wherein he in
dulges in some more misrepresenta-
tions. In the first place he asks if we
intend to pay the borough expenses
and pave Fourth street from the 1910
tax budget. Our answer: Is the cost
of Broad street paving taken from the
1910 tax? Certainly not-any school
boy should know better. 1t is the de-
sire of, and intention, of the Borough
Council to place all bonds, for improve
ments and the up-building of Empori-
um, for long term of years, at a low
rate of interest. Mr.. Burgess again
disputes the genuineness of Mr.. Whites
statement, issued July 16, 1910, over a
month ago, because the figures do not
lie. The taxpayers fully understand
the fact that two-thirds of the cost of
paving Broad Street is repaid by the
abutting property owners into the
Borough treasury. In case Fourth
street, or any portion of it, should be
paved this year, or at any future time,
the tax. payers-atlarge would be taxed
for one-third the cost.
"What think you, Mr.. Tax-payer9'
Are we to continue hauling mud, cind-
ers, dirt and other matter to fill up our
roads or crossings, only to repeat the
waste of money year after year? We
are emphatically in favor of paving
every foot of Fourth street from juno
ton to Iron Bridge, near Woodland
Avenue; to be decided by popular vote
and the Borough bonded for thirty
years, which would cost each tax
payer about two cents on dollar of
valuation, each year. "What think
you, Mr.. Taxpayer"
