Facts do not seem to warrant the
statement that the development of
Sorrento is the direct result of this
bridge construction Sorrento's
beautiful geographical situation and
its natural attractions are its pulling
power. Had the trunk highway
been routed around sde-tracked
Franklin, at many thousands of dol
lars less cost, the result to Sorrento
never would have been harmful, and
to Hancock and Franklin a great adj
vantage.
However, such seneralities do not
get us anywhere. The fact remains
that we have bridge which, in its
building and maintenance, is unfairly
proportoned 1t is agreed that
toll is not altogether desirable, but
it is a proposition that puts the bur
den up to those whom it is an asset.
And who can say there is anything
unfair in such procedure?
Possibly 100000 to 100000,
principal and interest, should not be
a cause for alarm to the citizens of
Hancock county, but it is a cause for
deliberate consideration, and suf-
ficent cause for us to seek a way out

would Hancock county be stepping
backward" if this money was avail
able for education? And, Mr.. Citi-
zen it is possible.
Many representative citizens of the

given this toll movement by the

towns which have taken it to the
electorate in open town meeting.
Perhaps it is well to call this ex
preston calamity cry" but, some
how. it does not ring true.

Cooperative Marketing System.

The recent report of President
Coolidge's Agricultural Commission,
which, after making a thorough sur
vey of farm conditions in the country,
strongly stressed cooperative mar
keting and urged it's early considera-
tion for legislation by Congress, TO-
cussed attention upon the fact that
this has been one of the big projects
which for years the grange has been
urging upon the public thought.
This farm organization has long
fostered the forming of local CO.
operative units, and at it's annual
session at Pittsburgh, in 1928, it
worked out an elaborate co-opera-
tive marketing system and sent a
special committee to Washington,
where it remained in session for sew
eral weeks, finally deyising several
drafts of bills embodying the CO.
operative marketing idea. These
suggestions were later included in
several of the marketing bills still
before Congress. In all it's advocacy
of business methods for the aid of
the farmer, the grange has constantly
and consistently emphasized CO.
operative marketing as fundamental.

Marlboro, NdICu OO, L u = %
Ellsworth American:
II is well that any controversy of
public concern should have a frank
discussion, pro and con, and in this
instance it was exceedingly crafty
ing to proponents of the toll plan for
the Hancock-Sulliv bridge that the
editorial appeared in last week S
American, because of the fact that it
was the first real argument that has
appeared in support of free bridge,
and those all over the county who
have expressed themselves in public
and press in favor of a toll have been
at loss as to what argument could
be made, in view of the very deplora-
BILE circumstances, justifying the free
use Of this instrument of passover.
Proponents of the toll do not main
tain that the towns of the bridge
district will ''go into bankruptcy
because of this bridge construction,
and there is no calamity cry"
from other sections of the county.
However, there is sound sentiment
lTOHl lulukluS CpllZcIS VI luc CouHty
that, from the inception of the bridge
act to the present miserable showing
of construction, it is an unfair
tax, tax that has never been levied
on any other section of Maine where
bridge Of Interstate or inter-
national character was constructed,
tax that was brought to the peO-
pie of Hancock county, not by their
expression, but by influences which
misrepresented them.
The State of Maine has many
thousands of road mileage to build
and maintain, and very small popu-
lat ion of people to swing the burden.
Bridging our large rivers is taking
great amount of money from our eX-
chequer. And because a people look
to reasonable solution of these
bridge problems, wherein our sum-
mer friends, who receive the benefits
along with us, would share in small
measure the expense, it is called
'step backward"
Perhaps it is we'll that we should
advertise our State and invite tour
lists to venture here during our pleas
ent seasons. Our visitors are Ger
tainly great benefit to us, but the
greatest asset is the citizen who lives
within Names borders, not for a
season, but for four seasons, and
this question of taxes is more vital
to him than it is to those who seek
Maine for pleasure.
How easy it is to say that this tax
or that tax is not 'unduly burden
some" which may be true in every
instance where they are viewed
singly. However, each tax goes to
the same pocket, soon the pocket 10
full, not of money, but of taxes, ana
because of this collective burden we
are admonished not to raise our
voices when we see good, 1alr
reasonable business-like solution or
dsposing Of bunch.
Proceeding as we are under this
free bridge plan is one form or
legacy we are handing our children.
Bond issues have been necessary, ana
probably will continue to be sys-
tenn of meeting certain advantages,
