- - V ' ? - 1 - - . A Card To The Voters or Louis- , burg TownshipBi nder the Road Law of 189S thete fll regularly levied an annual tax of 15 eents on the *100 worth of property and 7S centa on the poll in Louisburg Township for improvement of the Public Koads, and such tax, amounting to between ?3250.00?rtd $3600.00 annually has been levied and expended since that time; and the results are appareiit to all. Our roads do not compare favorably at all with those of adjoining towi g ships built with the money in hand and under improved and more modern meth- , ods although in the tern or more years working under this system we have spent more money, but the trouble lies not in the waste of funds but in the attempt to build the roads a little at a I me and according to the funds in hand P ich year. It has been demonstrated $ iat good roads cannot be built piece meal; and we therefore procured a bill to enable you to se<l bonds and have funds in hand with which to buy teams and machinery sufficient to build the roads according to the best and most improved methods. This bill does not increase the tax levy?in fact by its terms it cannot do so, and unless the majority of the voters choose to change the method of levying the tax by issu - . ance of bonds the old tax levy of 25 cents on the $100 stands indefinitely on us. The old and present system of taxation is not disturbed by the bond election unless bonds are voted for;and, if bonds are voted for, the old levy will be annulled and the levy made for bonds which cannot in any event ex ceed the levy, as now fixed, of 25 eents on the $100. In fact the Board is confident that bonds can be successfully floated and matured on a levy less than , 25 centa on the $100. Even under present valuations which valuations may be reasonably expected to increase, if not at once under the new system of taxation under general law, certainly as the , years pass by. We therefore urge the voters to come to the polls on M*v loth a large majority for bonds and enable us to get in line with progressive and successful road builders, assuring them that their burdens cannot and will not be increased but lessened, if possible, under taxes to float bonds.
