OPPOSITION TO BE EXPECTED.

= /. p
y There is no question receiving the
attention just now that the good
roads matter is claiming. People are
thinking and working on this mat
ter In all sections OF the county, and
reports from some Of tho sections are
very hopeful. while from others there
seems to be strong opposition. We
are told. however. that the sentiment
Is undergoing change and that peo-
pie. are beginning to see that the bond
issue Is not 80 bad a thing after all.
Those who have reasoned the matter
out SEQ that the burden Of paying for
the roads will be scattered over so
long a period that there will be no
real hardship. AS We figured the
burden OF taxation will be borne prin-
tcipally by the corporations and the
cities and towns In the county, only
about 80 per cent being paid by the
farmers, or owners of property In the
rural districts. AS o business matter,
It appears that the people of the rural
districts where tho roads will be
built would Jump at an opportunity
5of getting back 0ne dollar for every
thirty cents paid. and getting the
thirty cents too. as we have shown
might easily be the case In this bond

TOTAL COST FOR SCHOOL
DISTRICTS.

There arc GAG voters In Martin
School District. and the assessed val
uation of property. real and personal.
In this school district ia SPAS. 9.006. That
Is an average for each person paying
taxes Is s1,Gi2. which means that II
each person In this school district
owned the same amount of property
he would pay taxes on $l.012. Paying
at three mills. each person would.
therefore. pay 5000. or course there
are many persons IN this school dis
trlct who pay only on n few dollars
OF household goods, having no real
estate. Others pay on hundred
dollars, others on two. three or four
hundred dollars. or course the taxes
OF those will be correspondingly light
er. II A pays taxes on 500 worth of
property he will pay only 80 cents ad-
dltional tax. and 80 on.
Now, there nre 46 of these taxpay-
ers who pay taxes on over $4,000.
This leaves 200 taxpayers who pay on
S159.006. or $795 average. These will
pay an average of s2,2S each, year.
Would this be burdensome to any
farmer? Would It not be worth this
amount over and over again to any
farmer or business man to have one
good highway all the year around
leading through the district. and by
the. school house? Each yea the en-
tire district will pay STAT. and this is
nerhaps the woalthicss district In the
county outside OF tho largest towns.
Three and Twenty School District
will pay 1874 each Year; Meals
Creek, sS66,28. So it would appear
that these sections would at least not
be hard hit.
