Show tax payer not quito quite satisfied editor CLIPPER if fair play had answered the questions that I 1 asked for information I 1 should not have said any more he starts out 1 I do not approve of pushing into print but takes it upon himself to undertake to answer questions that he should have left for some one else that perhaps knew more about it than he did he thinks that it if tax payer had bad read his CLIPPER that is if he was so fortunate as to have one let me say that tax payer was among the first ten that did subscribe for the home paper and he has had his bis paper paid up in advance since that time and I 1 whilst fair has been reading 0 some ones CLIPPER or finding fault with it tax payer was canvassing for subscribers he says if tax payer had carefully read the CLIPPER for the past six months and noticed the court items that perhaps he would be better posted this is just what I 1 have done but failed to come to the same conclusion as fair play liay I 1 have noticed in the court items in at least four out of the six months different amounts allowed to the selectmen on road account with the amount allowed for attending court and for expenses in diff different prent ways will amount to more than one dollar per day the whole year leaving 0 out sundays and legal holidays now I 1 would like to ask tail play to answer if they spend one lay day out oat of six at the court that is working days now if they do not and my statement about the abouna received be true it will be six dollars for every day actually spent still they will ask a man to come and work six days single handed or three days wilh a team and call it fair play but perhaps I 1 forgot that fair play may be an educated man and allowed something for brains if this should be the caie please let me ask him to use ilia his brains and tell me how long it would be before brains would become weak if muscle did not provide for it I 1 appreciate their good goodwill will toward tax payer by allowing him to work out a portion of his tax but I 1 still say that it is not right for one man to get 61 1 a day and another man only sl 61 although fair play may try to make me believe it is it reminds me of the old lady who was trying 0 to make her husband believe the moon was green cheese in all of his talk he be answered one question and that was that all work lone done in road districts must be done under the supervisor super vison of the supervisor this is as I 1 supposed that is the reason that I 1 asked why it was for the selectman to be there also two road supervisors when alien the law does not require but bull one olle in any one district I 1 see no DO reason they wished in these depressed times as fair play says to take the money that should go on the road because the law allows it ile he says they only took that which the law allowed them that was 82 2 per day but the law they made dould not give tax tar payer only 61 1 now it would have been economy if they had let the rest work for 81 1 per day for there is an aa old saying that thai two many cooks spoil the broth it appears that this his has been the case caie with this section of the road for I 1 heard a man say in referring to the article of 11 fair play that his mind must be like this road very narrow as nearly all say that have passed that may that it has made a bad matter worse he refers to two kinds of economy but especially to one kind that be thinks tax payer or user deals in for he doubts very much if he has been honest in signing his name tax payer and he thinks user is good enough for him now when he arrived at this conclusion I 1 expect he himself and stood before the glass and looked at himself and said self judgment is rig righteous t for lie he measured me by his bis own little box I 1 will just say that iff air play will take the trouble to become acquainted with tax payer and then refer to the assessors list he be will find that there is enough to keep the selectman to work for two months and I 1 expect it would keep fair play it if he be got justice busy for one year that is if he be used the pick and shovel it is is my opinion that fair play has not rested well since he wrote the article at least after he used the word or probably user while resting upon his pillow he thinks perhaps that man is not like me making use of a road that he is not willing willida to help build I 1 will not say any more about this thia and still leave him to the torture of his own conscience I 1 still protest against those who do the easy work getting more than those who do the labor TAX taxpayer PATER |
