In your Kxtraof Monday you publish a 11 list of our town ta-x-pajcrs, with columns * snowing the awessed value of their properly, j n and the amount of tux they would have toiu pay If the Cumberland Gap bonds are voted; ! And In those columns you have blank spaces 1 r against the naulesof KObscribers to the Atlan- J tic and French Bread iiailroad, Intimating; that they would have nothing to pay to the Cumberland Oap roiid. In your leading arti-1 c!e you sav of them. "We m;Um no pretence,? to a knowledge of tlx? law. IwtTtbcems clear to us that they are ext-mpt." Your Interpre- . tation of the law might ftuve been good If we were now proceeding aiwtel: the Act of 18*.;.! Hat us it Is the Act of 1**3 which governs us,:?' J?ou are laboring under a misdilprefeonMon ; \> tor It exemps no one. KXamlne It, und you will see that no argument Is needed to show if that all our tax-payers wll I have to pay. 2. It seems that some tax-payers doubt oar u ability to attach toour bonds any conditions ^ that the Cumberland Gup authorities wotThl i bo bound to respect. It Is feared that our bonds when once voted will paws beyond our y control, notwithstanding the iv-olution ol the e board of directors, and our own expressed condition which we can embody In the bonds v and print on the very ballots whereby they o may be voted.?namely that the said bonds b are to be deposited in so?r?e bunk In trust, and > not to be delivered unti ho completed road ? reaehes our town. Let me, in answer to this r objection, quote from the highest authority on mlliond bonds. "Jones on K? 11 road Securities," paragraph 26S: "A condition imposed c by the vo'e of a township in favor of a subscription in uId of a railroad, that the ponds t> shall be issued only when work equal In value to the amount of the bonds shall be done In ? the township. i? imperative,and Is not fulfilled v by doing work elsewhere, even with the con- .i Kent of the officers of the township." j There may be otyectlons to voting the f>onds, hut the two tfiat I bnve referred to arc . gwundtess. 11, 11, 1 - DOIKGS IN DUE WES. flOrtrishlirt College?
