Such articles would lead one to be lieve that they have forgotten when sometime lasjjall a representative of the Paulln push went before the coun ell of Imperial and with big briny tears In his voice begged and beseeched that body, to exempt th # c unsoldjots In Imperial from the city tax, explaining that there were so many of them thac It would cripple the bank of England to pay the tax levied by the council. Of course whatever the Imperial Land company should ask for must be grant ed, so there was no hesitancy on the part of the council in granting this slight favor. . This is a matter of record and as it is a well known fact that there have been but a small num ber of lots sold in the town since last fall or for the past year, there can be no doubt about a mistake having been made when they asserted that the town was owned by the people. The people, of course, own a small part of the town and are working and paying taxes which are enormously high in order to try and enhance the value of the unsold lots. The explanat'on was made before the council that th^se lots were not worth the amount efi the tax, but it is now. thought by a great many that if they can land th/ county seat that Paulin will be able to sell these Jots to ; some one. andj then, of course they can be taxed.
