Show THAT AWFUL TAX. The democratic party Is making that 12.8 mills tax the Issue during tills campaign and tho effort Is to convince tho public that the democratic demo-cratic party, the party of mismanagement mismanage-ment from time Immemorial, can and will, If elected, rcmovo this terrific burden piled up by republicanism. True, tills 1- 8 mills tax, a raise of six mills from democratic administration, comes under republican administration, administra-tion, but are the republicans, Is the republican party or administration really responsible':1 TiiuIlKi'UiiMCAX Is inclined to believe that a little thought will convince any fair minded person otherwise. When the city plant was Installed the tlnal expenditure amounted to $100,(M)0, or a little more. Considering Consider-ing that fact what was tho proper move of the true and loyal citiensof Logan? It was to support the city plant, was It not, especially if that city plant gave the service promised and at the cost to the individual as promised? The question of putting in the plant had been submitted to tho voters,, and an overwhelming majority ma-jority had said "put In the system." Isn't the proposition as plain as A il C? Even those pcoplo in this city who own a fair block of Tellurlde stock could better afford to stand back of that $100,000 expenditure rather than oppose the expressed will of the citlcns to such an extent as to make a great tight and a (! mills tax possible. However, somo of these, with others, failed to support the city plant and the it mills tax resulting is casting 'em line the dickens. These p:ople arc the ones who are making the terrlllc noise about this tax, but are they not tho ones, Instead of tho republican administration, who aro responsible for this tax, this terrlllc burden they arc crying about. The proof of the situation lies In the fact that the light can end and will end tho Instant the citizens of Logan now supporting the other plant in its tight against the city face about and give to the city plant their tlnan-cial tlnan-cial and moral support. If the democrats demo-crats want to solve the question, let them Induce the most powerful force in the democratic party today to support sup-port the city plant. |
