He Again lmcussesthe Increased Tax Leiy. Editors Intelligencer : A (sense of duty impels me te give the public a second epistle ed the management of the county finances, partly in correction of an over sight of a large item in my last calculation of the rate of taxation that was necessary te meet the current expenses of this county for the present year. I demon strated that a levy of two and a half mills en the dollar was niore than sufficient. In that calculation I entirely overlooked the extraordinary surplus of $92,000 that was in the treasury at the end of the last term ; $50,000 of that,at least, ought te have been included in making up the appropriations for the present fiscal year. And still there would have been left $42,000 te commence the new year with, quite as much surplus as the interests of economy allow te be carried from vear te year. There always has been a deficiency of funds for a ceuple of months in the spring and it is in the in terest of oconemy that it should be .se. This has been provided for by temporary leans. It is a much cheaper method of bridging this chasm than te keep a su An cient fund en hand the whole year te meet it. There was an unusually large but plus en hand at the end of the year bcfeic, but ever $40,000 of it was absorbed iu paying the bended debt, aud the last beard might have paid $30,000 mere of that debt, but we were funding it for ten years, at the unusually low rate of four per cent, in terest, a much less rate than money ! weith te the taxpayers generally. Thcie- fore, we thought that it would subaoive their inteiests better te give them the benefit of it in the reduction of their tax this year, which is tiansjuient I think te everybody. I piopese te state the reasons why 1 be lieve a two-mill tax this year would have been Mifticicnt te pay current expenses, aud leave a sui pins of $05,000. The valu ation which is the basis of taxation is about ninety million dollars. A two-mill levy will yield $180,000 ; add te this $50, 000 out el the surplus en hand from last year, this will make $230,000. The cntiie expense of the county last year wai 6210, 030. There was included in that at least $15,000 of extra expenses that will net ee cur this year, consisting el the following items : dilfctence of ititeict en account of the iliiTeience between the bended debt last year an:! this year (payiuc a year ami a-half List year, which will net be ic quired this year; ; repiiis ei: cunt liouce, reindexing books, leadjustiug papers, files, &e., in the etlices, and repairs at the prison, all amounting te considerable ewr $15,000. Take this from the whole cost will leave $191,000, which was the actual cit: reut expense of last year. The tlnce pie sent commissioners are all practical busi ness men, and I piesume they went at their new duties iu a business-like man ner, beginning by looking ever the items of expense of lat year. In thus de'ng they would have ascettained that the actual ordinary expeuses weie $193,000, as j above stated. This gave them a knowl edge of what funds they needed for this year's expenses. O.i the ether side a leek into the treasuiy would have cm. vinced them that there was at least $50,000 available out of 1 ist year's sur plus for this yeai'a expense. With thi-. knowledge surely thev ought te have le duccd the tax te two mill instead u! raising te thiee. A thiec-mill levy will put them in possession et'thn enormous sum of $:J20,000, an excess of $125,000 ever wlial is needed, tins mus. .striae everybody as a very ex.liaeidin.uy pr eceding en the part of the commisiene: j, aud as jet they have given no tangible teasen for it. I see a communication in the IxTFXi.iGKNrj:K headed " Yv"hat the People Say; A Vigoieus Defense of the County Levy."' I feel Fatislied that it i. the production of one of the commiisienei.s from a talk I had with him en tin subject, or I would net waste paper ailud iug te it. The ' people '" de net ay any such silly thiugsas he allege they j-ay iu his imaginary " vigoieus defence " el hi.s three mills lev,). They deprecate it as , they have geed leaseu te. They don't i want the beard te raUe $123,000 meie i than is ncr-ded of the money they need in J their business, te heard iu the county ' treasury for two yea: s, lest one of theso i " peiiedical panics " may come sweeping j along and rob them. They have no such ' visionary fears. They feel that they ate i capable of usiug and taking care of the ii 1 own money until the public need it. Alse, he alleges as a reason why 1 crit: cise this levy that I have some evciduc bends that are drawing mere interest than tha fuuded debt, aud I am afraid they will j bj called in en account of it. The differ- j eaca of interest between the bends I held j is one-fifth of one per cent ( quite a con- j sideratien indeed). His reasoning iu this trifling personal allusion is about as " vig-1 oreus, " as his " defense of the county levy." He fuither says they can use it in canceling any of the ten year bends that miy ba offered from time te time. The: c will be piccieus few et them etlered, un less the rate of interest en money should j advance, aud iu that event it would be j impolitic te pay them in advance of their ' maturity. By se doing, he deprives the ' taxpayers of the benefit of a cheap lean. There are at least thtce-feurths of them ; new paying from live te six per cent, for money used in their business or en their property. This same money he proposes te take from them, and heard for two years te pay a debt that they are only pay ing four per cent for. He further says the country U in a prosperous condition new, and we de net knew hew hew long it will continue se, and new is the time te de this land of business. He does net fleem te comprehend that it is in geed times the peeple want te use of their money. It in then they use it te advant age. S me the beaid are determined te get IKft4Mlun of thin money as seen as possi ble. Th';y offer an abatement of four per Mat., which amount." te $10,800, te expedite iU caily collection, apprehensive, I pre sume, of the n.-.u appietc'i of one of these ypiedi (i ,. " ah e icferrcd te. This unnecessary and unreasonable draw en the taxpayers surely fore&hadews pre meditated extravagance if nothing worse. It is already cropping out in the publica tion of the commissioners- annual state ment in all the papers in the county. The law requires it te be published in one or mere papers, and by a stretch or rather abuse of their discretion they have ex panded the word " mere " te include ever twenty ; and if there had been a hundred I presume they would have extended this benefit te them all. Te a practical mind it would seem that a stretch of tbe word "mere" from one te three would have been quite liberal under the fitting circumstances that exist.having three lead ing papers in the county representing both political parlies, one jer the ether being taken by almost everybody that reads a newspaper in the ceuuty.This unreasonable and uucalled-fer publication of this item will coat the county net less than fifteen hundred dollars mere than it would have done had it been cenGucd te these three papers. The only purpose that this un limited publication can serve will be te sscure for the commissioners the bland ishment of theso papers. They will I have no doubt call them "courteous," "liberal" fellows, although the money they aic thus wasting belongs te ether people. The mere dependent and baser ones of them will take up the cudgel and try te knock down anybody that in the exercise of his right or duty dares te criti cise their official acts no matter hew re prehensible they may be. This has hepn illustrated recently by the editor of the Inquirer in the gratuitous reckless, lying tirade of peisenal abuse that he piled upon me for saying that there was no necessity for the levy of a tlnce mill tax, aud he even gees farther aud threatens if 1 say anything mere about it that I live iu a glass heiibe and that he will make it meic iuteicsting for my enemies than for myself. This demonstrates the pernicious imlucnce that the dispensing of beneficial ies by public elliccis has en the press, at least the meie servile portion of it. This sycophant of the Inquirer seems de termined te get the inside track en his competitors for the mere solid patronage of the commissioners' office. Hence this uuwairantable attack upon me. I shall net condescend te answer it farther than te say te him te fiie his mWsiles, bang hi.s stones-, butbasuie lie throws something solid. I bid hini defiance se far as my official piebity and integiityaK-cencerned. I have the consolation te knew that while commissioner I labored assiduously topro tepro topre t -cL and promote the best interest of the taxpayers and h.iva the satisfaction te knew that I accomplished a gieat deal in ledueing the expenses of the county, as a oentiast of the expenses of last yeai with three veais age will abundantly show. As this statement that has cost the county se much te publish does net give any definite idea of the financial condition of the county, I v. ill stats it briefly. At the end of the year 1881 the debt of the county was $302,130, consisting of bends $295,000, i milling for ten years, the county Laving the option te pay them any time alter thiee yeais. $92,000 en hand at the end of the j eat ftetii the debt will leave $210,150, which was the leal debt of the county then!
