TAX PAYERS ASK FOR
COUNTY ROAD BOMBING
ESTIMATE ADDITIONAL TAKES
Declare That Bonds Will Cost Much
Less Than 3-hlll Levy and Will
Yield q Greater Amount.

Very few persons in Luna county
know that there are no funds for the
maintenance of roads, and many
have not learned that there will be
none for another year. II is evident
that all the expenses placed on the
highways during the past few years
will go for nothing unless the roads
are kept in repair.
Public spirited citizens have been
talking over the situation and have
offered the following as solution
over their signatures:
"Luna county could vote a bond
issue for $4,000; $4,000 for 1915,
$4,000 for 1915, $4,000 for 1917.
and $4,000 for 1918.
"To give an idea of the annual in
crease it takes to meet five per cent
interest on II $4,000 bond issue the
following figures are given:
Tax payers paying 800 in taxes,
increase l6c. tax payers paying $50
in taxes, increase Sc, tax payers pay
ing $25 in taxes. increase 4c, tax
payers paying 1925. increase lc.
This will be seen by these figures
that the cost would be slight.
For comparison is quoted the cost
to tux payers 3-mill levy which was
made in 1913 and which placed in the
road funds of the county $9,96O.33.
Tax payers paying 800 in taxes
increase 1924. tax payers paying $50
in taxes, increase $2.82, tax payers
paying $25, increase $l.3l, tax pay
ers paying 1926. increase 651ac.
BY comparing these figures the
difference between the bond issue
and 3-mill levy. which beyond doubt
would have to be made for three sue
cessive years will be- noted. IL rec
ord as a good road county is to be-
made.
These bonds, il issued by vote of
the tax payers. would by law be pay
able in thirty years. So the man who
pays 800 taxes will pay sixteen
cents to meet the five per cent inter-
est on II $4,000 bond issue. Mul-
tiplying thirty yenres by sixteen
cents gives $3.50. BY this will bs
seen that in thirty years the tax pay
er will not have paid as much as the
3-mill levy would amount to in one
wear, which is 1924.
