The only objection that has been
advanced against the proposition
of creating a new county, is that
it's creation, will cause an increase
in taxes.
The figures and statistics that
appear in another part of this pa
per will prove without any doubt
that the taxes will not be mater
increased. The figures that have
been quoted have been authentic.
They have been gathered from the
county records of the counties OF
Meagher: Sweetgrass, Fergus and
Yellowstone.
The estimates that have been
made have all been reasonable and
are not in excess of the amounts
expended by Meagher county in
the last year. There has been alb
solutely no figures produced by
anyone to show that the taxes will
be increased if the county is Gre

Wall FROM A COMMUNITY OF
POOR WHITE PEOPLE.
Who Are Being Pressed by the Pro
gresslVe Negro, as 1t Appeared
in the Nashville Banner
of June 1.

Fearing the enc~roachments of the
Negroes who are said to have made
several attempts of late to buy
property on the Lebanon Turnpike be-
tween the corporate limits and the
Hermitage, a mass-meeting of the CT
tizens of Davidson County owning
property along the pike in that dis
trlst was held Saturday night, at
which the movement was strongly
condemned. 1t is stated in preambles
to resolutions adopted that since the
Lebanon Turnpike is the only means
OF approach to the Hermitage and as
the citizens Of that district have al
ways been orderly and l%aw-abiding,
and as the buying Of property by Ne
groes would mean its almost total de-
probation and destruction that:
BE it resolved, That we do earnest
ly and solemnly protest against the
sale or lease to Negroes, or the oc-
cupancy by Negroes, of any land in
the said locality, and that should this
protest be of no avail, we pledge our
selves to resort to other and more eff
tectual measures to protect our rights
and attain u ends"
In addition to this it was agreed at
the meeting that no property in the
lnture should be sold without contain
ing a 99-year proviso against the sale
or lease OF the land to Negroes.
