Bonham Petition Urges Support for Railroads and Truck Carriers
A Bonham community appeal argues that railroad and express workers pay $253 785 78 annually in Bonham and Fannin County and that the Texas & Pacific pays about $15 000 in county taxes for roads. It urges fair treatment for common carriers under the law and warns that loss of rail service would imperil six hundred fifty residents and local prosperity.
