Would we had a Little of their spirit at this City of concentric circles. A lot of wooden Heads Here think that if they can save the property of the Rich from anything like High taxation they have accomplished wonders and Are on the High Road to Prosperity and greatness they May possibly get Over this foolishness after awhile and Quot learn that something else besides Low taxes is required to make a great City. Low taxation characterizes villages cities in order to be cities must expend Money for improvements consequently taxation must be higher. The most Misera ble fallacy in the world is that Low taxes is a sign of Prosperity. The reverse is really the Case and yet there Are editors who print to our Low taxation As though the City had done a wonderful and Good thing in placing the tax at 75 cents on the $100. Sensible people and sound financial business men know to the contrary Liat the Revenue will not the expenses of the cite by $100,000�?unless indeed the City is fenced in and grass be permitted to grow in its streets. Speaking of streets let any one take a look at ours. There is not a single Street of City that can be driven Over with safety Wilile they Are always in a most miserable condition. Two of the main thoroughfares and the handsomest streets of the City Meridian and Tennessee Are hardly passable worse than any Corduroy Road that was Ever travelled Over and yet they have been permitted to remain in this condition for years Jority of that astute body Are opposed to a a Low taxation preventing the City from re crowd being attracted to the City.

Carey who sat Down so severely on Lake the Walkis in Council is no relation streets in front of their dwelling expend of their wealth in making Good thoroughfares. Tie consequence is that these particular streets Are avoided As much As pos sible and in the end property abutting thereon cannot fail to depreciate in value. Show us a City with High taxes and we will show you a prosperous thriving City. Show us a place with Low taxes As the Rule and we will show you a place fast going Down at the Heel if not indeed already nothing but an overgrown Lage.
