Next Tuesday. June 81, a spe-
cial election will be held in the
Third Ward to take the sense of
the taxpayers on levying a five
mill tax for ten years in favor of
the Iberia, st. Mary and Eastern
Railroad. The question is square,
ly up to each voter, and he shall
answer eyes" or "No", as he
casts his vote for or against the
tax. If they want it, the road
will be built through Franklin,
and if they do not want it, the
road will not be built. The cleo
tons held in the other wards
have been virtually unanimous
in favor of the tax, what will be
the answer from the Third Ward?
The city council has repealed two
mills Of the four mill road tax, in
the town of franklin, which has
thirty more years to run. This is
equivalent to six mills for ten
years. The railroad tax is five
mills for ten years. With this
reduction in the tax of the town OF
Franklin the taxpayers can vote
the railroad tax of five mills and
get the railroad and will virtually
be paying one mill less in taxes.
