Now you know just what makes Horses so Happy? CITIZEN Of PROPOSED NEW COUNTY VOICES STRONG OPPOSITION TO IT Col. T. J. Moore, of Moore's Writes Strong Letter to Spartanbjurg Herald Pointing Out Fool-Heartedness of Now County Movement. ! Editor of The Spartanburg Herald: Having been cut off in the pro posed county of Woodruff. I have been led to Investigate the running ?Spenge? of counties, and the practi cal effects upon the new county. In my judgment, it is the most unbuai Tess like proposition tnat could have been propoaed. It proposes to lay but a very poor county, poorer than Spartanburg county was when it came I out of the Confederate war, a county in which the taxation will be enor mous, if the same efficiency now pre vailing is to be maintained; a county that will start poor, and continue so during the life time of those of us now living, and probably our children after us. It proposes to quit the second wealthiest county in the state; to cut loose from the city of Spartan burg, which now pays nearly half the taxes of the county, and 1b rap Idly growing, and destined to be a large and wealthy city; to take on hand the larger part of the costly bridges of the county, in fact, nearly all of them; to build a courthouse, jail, and other public buildings; to as sume its share of the public debt? $375.000; to keep up a large and ex pensive road system, with many roads to be laid out to the new courthouse. Now, I want to show you the ab surdity of the proposition. Surely the promoters of the scheme have never Investigated the matter fully, and do not know what they are propos ing to .saddle themselves and the bal ance of us with. Nov. to understand fully the ques tion, as It Is going to take a very large sum to run the county, let me show- you what Spartanburg county Is now doing?her assessed value and rate of taxation, and compare it with the proposed now country. Of course, the amount of money that can be raised depends on the assessed valua tion and the rate of taxation, and to raise a given amount the larger the assessed valuation the less the rate of taxation, and vice versa. The county of Spartanburg is now assessed at $ 10,000,000, and the rate taxation for Btate and county pur poses is 10 3-1 mills, which a little figuring will show raises a fund of $318,000. . Of this amount 0 3-4 mills are for state purposes and 7 mills for county purposes. Now the as sessment of 7 mills for county pur poses is divided as follows, viz.: Ordinary county, ?' I-'- mills. Bridges and permanent Improve ments, 2 mills. Road tax, 1 mill. Sinking fund. 1 mill. Commutation or road taxes in ad dition. This 7 mills assessment thon raises $132,000 lor county purposes, of which sum $20 per mile is used on 1,000 miles of roads and brides, equivalent to $:!x,ooi) each year. Now let us BOO how It would stand with Hie new county If the same- rate of taxation should prevail. The tax able value of I he; new county would he in I he- neighborhood of $3,000,000, which I gel as follows, viz.: Woodruff township, assessed value at present, as obtainod from the county auditor, is $1,200,450; Cross Anchor township, $500,000; tin- balance of the county, $1,300,000. Total $3,000,000, Now supposing that the same ralS of taxation will prevail, the 7 mills for county purpose!.', to say nothing Of state taxes, will raise $21.000, Now, does I" look reasonable that a county can be rut) on $21,000? I: will re quire n -a !v that * t.n to ke< p up the roads and bridges, for If Spar tanburg county has 1,000 nilleK with an area of H7S square miles, It Is reasonable to suppose that the new county of 100 square n.lles wir have about one-half as much, or say, ahou: 950 miles. If $20 n mile shott'd be expended as Is now done in Spartan-1 burg county It would take $10,000 to keep up the roads and bridges, (is weil as is now clone, leaving just $2, 000 on which to run the county. What then about court expe-nses, pay ofj ptlbllC Officers, the building of public houses, as courthouse, Jail, poor house, etc.? Why the courthouse at Spartanburg mast have cost $?0,000 or $60,000; the jail half as much, and then the pay of public officials. Just think of it; Auditor, $2,000; school commissioner, $1,000; sheriff, $2,600; supervisor, $1,500; clerk, $720; cor oner, $600; treasurer, $1,600; the oth er officers being supported by fees. ThlB pay of public officials is then about one-half of the pitiful $21,000 raised by the new county. The court expenses of Spartanburg county are more than the new county would raise in all. The more I think about it *he more preposterous it appears to be. Ke: us take a view of the bridge ques tion. It is proposed to saddle us with nearly all the costly bridges In the county. Here are some of them, and what they cost, viz.: Hill's bridge, on Tyger.$9,000 Burnt factory, on Tyger.3,000 Nesbitt'a bridge (Tyger.3,000 Marshy Shoals.2.000 Scott's.1,000 Price's.2,000 Otts Shoals (to build).2,000 Moores.1,000 Swltze- (S. Tyger).1,000 Anderson (S. Tyger) .1,000 With several others above that I do not know about. On Knoree river: Musgrove's.3,ooo Knoree.5,000 Bnoree, No. 2.2,000 Kllgore's.1,000 Harris.2,000 Allen's bridge.1,500 Woodruff.3,000 Van Patton's.4,000 Bennett's.2,000 Fowler's.2,000 BoSfde8 several others higher up the Tyger and Knoree that I know nothing about, to say nothing of the innumerable smaller bridges over the creoks, as Wards, Dutchman, Cane Creek, the 'wo Fergusons, Jimmies creek, Cedar Shoals, and I know not how many more. Should we have other Hoods as in 1903 and 1907 the county would be bursted wide open. They could not be replaced and re sources of the county being too slim. We would have to go back to pole bridges and fords, as in Reviutionary days. What in this world do the pro moters of the sell..me ahout the town of Woodruff mean by trying to saddle us with all this expense? I asked an expert, one versed In running county affairs, roads and bridges, how the now county could keep up its roads and bridges, and his reply was they simply can't do It without enormous taxation, but will have to go back to poor roads, pole bridges, and fords as of old times. It will be remembered the new county will give up its Interest in 50 or 00 mules and a great deal of expensive machinery, I would expect the road by my house never to be worked again excerpt with pick and shoved. I thank the; Kord I live Immediately on the line, and will likely have a good road to Spartanburg. Some one suggests that to keep up the roads we will have to have a poll tax of $?> or $7, as they do in the poor and small counties of North Carolina adjoining us, and my judgment is that this will be> the outcome, and when such a tax Is levied tennnts and fac tory hands are not going to pay It, but will move out across the line, and then our farms will be- in a beautiful shape- to pay the either excessive tax ation. One of the promotors of this scheme actually told nie? that the new coun ty couiei be run cheaper than was now being elone. in Spartanburg coun ty, and cltod me te> Cherokee county as to what can bo done. Now, it se-i-tiiH te> me- that any man of good practlcatl coinmem semso ought to see that, it will COSl more to run two counties than one1, and as for Chero kee COtinty, I was tedd by one who knows what he was talking nbout (ContlntlOd on Page Three.)
