appointed by the city council con-
Quoting the negotiations with the

This report is worthy of the care

asmuch as the initial 100000 pro-
posed to be paid on the plant has
been levied on the home-owner and
the business man az a direct tax in
the 1912 budget.
The report will be considered,
doubtless, by the Taxpayers Asso-

WHAT KIND OF ROADS
HAVE YOu2

After all, there are Just two kinds
Of roais-the kind that help a com
muuity and the kind that tax a
community, says an exchange. 1t
has been shown that to carry a ton
one mile by sea costs one tent, Of a
cent by railroad one cent. To hau.
\ ton over good roads costs e zen
cents a mile over ordinary roads,
% cents a mile. The mud tax, the
excess cost you pay your bad road,
therefore amounts to Is cents a mile
per ton.
This matter is especially tim2ly
Just now, when all hauling mus be
done under maximum difficulties.
Which kind OF road have you in
your neighborhood-the kind that
taxes a community, or the kind
that helps? And if you have only
the kind that taxes whose fault is
