The tax rate in the Town of Lis- bon has been 15 mills for many years, and will remain 80 this year > > oo 2. The debt of the Town has not increased during John G. Bromley's administration: and it the Town Treas. urer, a republican, had done his duty according to law, the tax money, amounting to $2,637.83, now 1In the hands' of ‘the Receiver of the Thames lwan and Trust company,swould be in the hands of the Town and would have been applicd to the payment of the $2,000 borrowed this ~year, and the Town would have been run even for the first time In many years. 3. The cl irge that your property 1s decreasing In value ix too’ iname for answer. ¥arm values In the Town of Lisbon ‘are increasing. 4. John G. Bromley is accused his traducers of standing in with }Si liquor element. The liquor question 1s 8 pretty dead issue to resort to in a Town that is no-license and where no Yote 1s to be taken on that question. The First Selectman has as much offi- clally to do with the liquor business as the County Commissioners have to do Wwith the management of Town 'schools. 5. ‘The Town borrowed 00 the year past, as all towns must TOW o pay current obligations with, and & turn to take up with the money real- ized from ‘axes. Where 8 the money realized from taxes? 6. John G. Bromley has always fa- vored good roads, and the last year all the money that 4 small town can af- ford has ‘been put into road improve- ment; also the last year the First Se- lectman has had fo meet $250 for roads incurred by the previous admin- istration. 7. Perhaps if Mr. W. S. F paid his tax Jciei Tan es for the present vear he would be in asbetter position to vilify that has paid his. Perhaps if Messrs. Foote and Corbetf would prove something irstead of weakly asserting that what they say could be proved, they might cxpect some results. But we 'know that the voters are from Mis- sourl and ihat no such weak kneed mud slinging wiil get from them any ore consideration than it deserves the consideration as to what kind of men they are who resort to such petty political junk. 9 THE DEMOCRATIC TOWN COMMIT- TEE (John M.
