WHY?

TAXES ARE TOO HIGH.
July 26, 1934
Editor of the Oniineca Herald,

Dear Editor—I am behind in my sub
seription wad also with my taxes and
| ask’ you -to he kind enough to give
me-a: little space in your valuable pa-
per to. put before’ the rest of the de-
linquent tux payers an reason or. twa

why our taxes ate *o high and can not].

Ie paid, You mentioned in your is-
sue week or so ago the round house
ne Thicifie: (the w lite elephant). Well
no donbt when it was built they had
Wusiness “in sight for it, but of late

years there has. been. practicnily noth-

ing, About all it is-used for ois to
store a gus-cur used mostly for fish-
tie trips and. joy rides, It requires
two engine Tnspertors, ar whatever
they: ave called, “to wateh it night and
day. make beds for a.few engineers,
put some water on the train which
anee adiy and stops. for fifteen min-
utes, Now this. costs. the tax payer
abint 400 au oméinth for. the two en-
vine inspectors, Besides this is a car
iispector aud an agent at a cost of
whout $370 2 month, or 9g total at about
ATAO to receive and despatch ‘one train
a day in summer and one every other
day on winter schedule. I suppose
now: they -will build a- fifty or sixty
thonsnined dollny depot fer the tak
|yer to pay. for and there is not as
inch business at Pacific ns there is
at Usk where there is no agent even.
About the. only business they had’ at
Pacific was: killed “through political
malice, caused I-am told by a few rail
way engineers. Now, is it any won-

{der that it costs one million dollars

to insintauin this roud from Red Pass
to Rupert if this kind of management
tukes place every Luondred miles, And
th tux payer wonders where his money
goes, Why his taxes. ave so high.
He wonders why this rovernment road
is the curse of Conida, Why it) cost
fifty to sixty million dollars to run.
Why he has to pay dea mile. Why
