CORRESPONDENCE.
HancOck-Sullivan Bridge.
Washington Jet, April 10, 1872

To the Editor of The American:
Let us see about this toll bridge
question. Any law that taxes a COM
munity taken as a whole, out Of
proportion to the benefit received as
compared with another community,
likewise taken, has been declared un-
constitutional. The constitutionality
of this special legislative act of the
Hancock-Sullivan bridge has never
been passed upon by the law court of
Maine.
For consideration of this question,
net benefits alone must be the basis.
Taken as whole, Washington county
will receive more benefit from the
building of this bridge than any
other county in the State, yet she pays
only her proportional part as coming
from the State, while Hancock county
is taxed about fifteen times greater,
in proportion, and the five towns
comprising the bridge district, which
combined will receive but very hit
tie, if any, more benefit than the five
nearest costal towns of Washington
county-Hancock not near as much
as any one--are compelled to pay
over fifty times more for its con-
struction, and the whole of it's up
keep. Then the indirect damage re-
sulting from this outrageous con-
dition, as affecting sale value of real
estate, will be another great item of
wrong.
Taking all that has been written
| on this subject, with that here stated,
| it must appear clear that the free
bridge act, in this case, was most
terrible, demoralizing act-a long
"step backwards"
The proposed amendment to make
it a toll bridge was an attempt to
turn that step in the right direction,
| by relief sufficient to establish right
and Justice, and that only for time.
| appeal to the open-minded, intelli-
gent reader, to his honor, good judg-
ment and sense of right and justice,
was that a "step backward?'
AS to the bridge district, the town
of Hancock, in one public gathering,
unanimously voted to sustain the toll
plan as set forth in that proposed
amendment, and at its last annual
meeting. by a very large majority.
| party from East oulllNdH 'oiu
the writer that nine out Of ten in that
part of the town were for toll on that
said plan, while at North and West
Sullivan they were about evenly di-
vided on the question. Very recently,
a party from Sorrento told me in
| Ellsworth that the sentiment among
the resident taxpayers was quite
unanimous for toll.
AS to the other towns. my lnforma-
ton is indirect, but that which | have
received would tend to show that the
sentiment for toll was even stronger
| there than in Sullivan or Sorrento,
while the county is, unquestionably
strongly in favor of toll
| Inasmuch as the county, under
! present conditions, has to pay over
| three-tenths of the cost of the con-
struction of the bridge, we naturally
and properly take exceptions to the
statement that it should have no
voice in the matter.
