Another objection to the property

It taxes the property In the towns
for road purposss. Two prominent
young business men of Cairo, said

trlbute a share of property to the

The fact that the latter b*»
been witling to do thto Is why the
good work ha. been se lent, delayed
-and many cannot Tit see the point.
They seem to nourlek the vain and
delusive Idea that th.y can make
the negro and th. so-called trash
gang work th. ro»d». But tlm. has
proven and will conUnue to prove
to me some time ago that the road double taxed (to get rid of the street

of agriculture that he has been try
ing to drive Into the noggin of the
old planter so long. He may be a
benediction - to the race by causing
two ears of corn to grow where only
one grew, &c., and thpn If the old
planter that has reached his two
score ten should taken notion to swap
place, with him In order to get out
of sight of a public road and also
to fill a long felt desire to handle the
yard stick and try the balances In
order that he might show forth to
the world how much the greedy
hand of extortion Imposes upon them
he too might become n benefactor.
If he should break the hands of fren
zied finance and trail under the ban-

At any rate a whole lot of expert,,

they get mad. Now an to experience
Our town brother would encounter
tbe vicissitudes of the seasons some
times he would have to plant over
because It rained too hard and again
It rained too light and then again,
It would rain so much he would al
most come to th; conclusion that he
would make all the blades of grass
and none of the earn of corn and an
other time It would stay dry so long
that he would fear he would not
make seed and then the experience

tax system waB all right If the >3
per capita would do , but that'll was
unfair for their property in town
to be taxed to keep up the country
roads. A casual glance, upon the
surface of the subject would Indicate
that this view was correct. When
the subject was first agitated I took
this view of tt and argued that as the
city people were taxed to keep the
streets worked It was not right to
subject their property to taxation
for ,ond working outside the city or
town. But after thinking about the
question from another standpoint
I believe the law making men right
In requiring them to do their part.
Suppose a ditch with perpendicular
walls ten feet wide and ten feet deop
should he dug around the r.r.les anj
loons and laws passed foroidding
anyone to put a bridge except the
railroad across it. How long do
you .suppose the town would he In-
krblted. No yellow fever or cholera
pinrue would depopulafe it so quick
ly. A biff etty like Atlanta n.Jgbt

trade would commence to die before
night. Even Thomaavllle with her
winter tourist trade would^ hare a

ter was out. Now friends of the
towns ss your Ufs depends on yonr

to be willing to help keep or save
your life and then asthe life of your
