HOW CAN WE PAY 01 B TAXES.
Mr Editor: ? will you pl^USi1 pub

Hii? i..n * Ihnl mil I'lup r.f
tor 1919 was 11.112 -bales, averaging
1 400 pounds per bale, the price aver

'if ki* >071. tPO iiwro ? Un. ? thn i<^q
[frpp for *he 1^20 crop
The above <?rop figures are taken ir
om the rtnners report. How can you
| pay your taxes when they arc -more
I than double what they for the
pnwiitiin; j n*r v?t {>{? prices of
our crops are bringing less, and in
jmaajr_iiiatances not covering expense
lo t production. The tax of one of
my near neighbors is double what it.
. was the preceding year and^et his
-erops did nnt ftiy the cost of produc
tion. It would seem that our farm
ers, under present conditions win {
.have to pay rent on th~ir own land.
'Vet our senator anJ representative,1
without consulting the wishes of the
voters of the county, have raised the
salaries of the several officers thus
.further increasing the burden of tax
ation. How can the people pay
! when the prices for their products
(have been cut half in tvro? Our peo
ple mean to pay; but when it comes
|to a show down there are a plenty of
? our people Just as good as you or 1
who pannot even start their crops
with?|^?he financial help of some
?o-ae else, who will that he? The mer
jrhant is in the aaqie fix that the far
urged upon our representative two |
years ago and he declined to ha.ve it |
passed, because he was thene to rep- ;
resent Tile" people of FrxnkMa i_Vu>nty ;
and not Just a little bunch of two
or three. Now like our officers j
Tin i ir i lrrr nrr H"<nn tn p?? the
people what they do not want, men
they can be very easily . changed in |
days to come, because there are oth- J
ers in this county. I am glad to say ,

they ask to be raised nt a lime liUj

time to time have become a burden "
upon them. ' -* ? ? = f
Our constitution says that the peo- j
pie Sh&ll lule. ? i ?n?? tft tt|
the people that are doing the salary ?
i nm miry they ?re not j
when everybody is condemning TSTs-1
act of our senator and representative |
Now. we. the people of Franklin
