mentioned because tho of Kenosha were all genuine Yankees whereas there were many Norwegians and other foreigners of Racine aad kee and while he did root wish to rage foreigners in this home of America to all the world yet that the ahead of tham is not to be denied he Railroad west from Chicago had put 0 shame the wildest dreams of its by those who started so fac exceeded these dreams The west of Milwaukee was doing a greats ts founders anticipated And therefore vith a better slip country settled by a tetter people why noi a Railroad west Kenosha do There was no reason It do well It could not it It behooved all then to assist in it A few plight as they but the City was a help to the Country If it was entirely destroyed to they would find the tax for extra muling severe They would then find he need of a City of And to show what Kenosha has done he would It has raised sand dollars to build a Harbor subscribed one hundred to the stock of the Railroad Company The City has issued its bonds for one hundred and fifty thousand more for the Railroad Enterprise All these are City alone A harbor U relatively beneficial to the County as So is the road And City of tho County Tax And in Addition to what it already jane it proposes to will force injury upon all interested As to the of the County Loan he wished to say he had property in various Towns in the County and was willing to stand his part Besides he every vear was pay taxes in rious parts of the County to a large amount Tiad nobody to send frv school He did complain of lit paid such taxes cheer was it not as great a wrong in proposed County He wished all look at the matter candidly Much bus been said about the wrong of the City but this was the first meeting in the individuals from the City were allowed to be heard at all He was satisfied that a cool and ate examination show tlie proposition was a fair and honorable one Mr spoke very rapidly and al much length and listened to with much attention As soon as he ceased he left room Mr Marsh said just left jhc room was a good talker represented himself as having property in County It ought to be understood that he was a lawyer and got his property by jas is not always good reason For himself he could not talk much could not get a by gassing buthe to think a little common sense and this told him that principle of the Loan was wrong said this question to be examined candidly He did not say the of the loan was right lie left that question tor others to decide The accusation that the wanted to rob the County did not sound well It was uncalled for He did not hands with a man with one hand and rob him with another He could wanted to and look a man right in the face Hut people should look at facts That railroads raised the of lands beyond calculation every 1 one knew lie stated he had tried Jo sell a piece of land iu the neighborhood of Dr Adams for ien dollars an acre but could not Since the project of a Railroad from he had refused an acre as it would bring more lie ed to Dr to verify this real estate little and day j of those roads thaw has since re V adding tothe same zed in their Then sha has borrowed money to go on wiSh were not wanting

the amount was to be paid the county deducted from fanns bv purchasers it would not occasion whose before road was built half the loss nett them no more than twenty-five rent try towns thai a few held at already done Let us suppose that was to be to the county the en- tire sum at lio be- collected of its what would ii amount toT It would amount cents to each a sum For thu The Question Continued But the argument in which relied upon at one time to the Erie canal has long since been exploded and even the farmers about instead of loosing a good for krout and cabbage soon realized a ly improved and not only an ed market but a Kast increase in the cat value of their real estate an increase above from being relatively ger than what was by farmers mug farther west on of the same That it will mattes of great con- and profit to Watworth county admits of no question Bat it should be- in mind of Walworth county is situated west our own and that she has to her and therefore it become an one fourth as large as has been expended iiv opposing the loan by a large proportion ol those who have been tual in their at the meetings Tho present may perhaps be a proper occasion for replying Mr Kellogg's re- marks be is pleased to represent the city the only interested party in this work of improvement and that the country called upon to build np the City should indeed er itself cabled upon by patriotic and and by motives of pecuniary inter- est to throw nothing in the way of ad- vancement of tbe interests of the on the other baud to join the country with the city and the with the try in a mutual advance in prosperity and greatness Their interests are identified and the projects of tbe one cannot be depressed or lifted up without having its influence on the other That Kenosha is largely indebted to the country though not largely to Comity for its support is manifestly true but that it is not Mr Kellogg sents wholly independent upon the ishment of mother hereabouts is equally true Kenosha City within its limits at least a dozen manufacturing establishments whoso sales amount to from live to sixty thousand dollars per annum and whose products arc shipped off and lind markets in other Stales All political economy iay it down as an established rule the merchant or more properly speaking the broker who tools the clothing the salt and other of life to where the agriculturalist finds convenient access the produce broker brays the surplus produce of the country and the ship owner who transports the to the other are the useful of all the bers of society and the statistics show that of all classes the fewest of them be- i come permanently weal thy I make these remarks iu justice to a are stig- in Mr communication as speculators The nal tribes arc the only people who have found manage ly without the intervention of commercial men We might what is commerce without agriculture and we might also say is out commerce Having already exceeded such limits as I proposed I shall

It might be difficult to show by any fair f hat the value of the sturk after its business has got fully cd can bu much less than the best roads The road passes through a try eminently productive and whose paci ties have yet been in no degree The argument that towns or grow only from the business that i surrounds or of to them is too frivolous to rious reply Kven New York to ex- tend her arms of
