To the Taxpayers Of La Plata County:
/ think you all have your tax-cards
by this time. Do you think you have
enough taxes to pay? Do you think
II is right for the county commits
sioners to raise our taxes every year?
Do you think 1t right to run the county
into debt and then to borrow money
al 10 per cent interestf Do you think
1t right for the county commissioners
to pay out six or eight thousand dol
lars to keep the paupers? Why don't
the county buy poor farm and let
those paupers who are able make their
own living. Do you think 1t right to
bond the county and make roads for
automobiles. tax the poor man to
make the rich man richer2 Why don't
they rather try to improve the country
and draw settlers this way? Why
don't they vote for reservoirs to store
the water that is now going to waste?
Give US water to irrigate with and
we will build our own roads. Again
Il would like for the commissioners
to make statement every two or
three months SO that we taxpayers
may see what they are doing with
our money. II taxes still go up the
taxpayers are going to balk and 1t
Will not be long before either the.
real estate men will own all the land
oe till the county owns all the land
for taxes. 1t IL a shame and Disgrace
for q rich county as this 10 to be In
debt. Come now. brother farmer,
wake up. don't let this disgracsfui
business go on any longer. It's your
money that's squandered in foolish
way and 1t is up to you to stop this.
