WOULD PAY FEWER TAXES.
One of the .problems before the,
town' council 'at present is. the aaat-.
ter of assessment of the fame lands
within the corporation.. According
to a statute recently revised it is
possible for farmers to have their
property taken out of the corpora-
tion And attached' to the township
adjoining, thereby removing from
town assessment altogether. The
farmers interested,'who seem to
think they .are paying too'' high a
rate, have taken the matter up with`
the- town fathers and a `settlem'ent'.
of their differences will Probably be •
r'eac'hed.
IS APPRRCIATED.
The following, from the Ridgetown
Plain Dealer refers to a brother of
Mr. J. G. Medd of town, who is else
Weil -known hereabout: •
"That Rev. Dr. Medd . has been
worthily honored with' an'. invitation
to remhin'for a fourth year-of"pas•'
`toral service in chis,; present charge
is •most?Tleasing to• his: large 'circle
of .friends "and admirers in the vari-
ous. churches and in the community,
in which' from the' day of his settle-
ment he has,inanifested n deep and
genuine ;interest Probably- the'
;churches of Ridgetown• and vicinity
were never favored with better' inin,`
isterial service than -they enjoy at
the present time. And the 'cordial`
and. kindly co-operation of the min-
isters and the churches with -one an
other is one of the most 'enoeurvtging
,features of the present day; What,
ever tends to secure the stable -wide
increasing influence of'the :Inen who
'afire doing: so much for the welfare, of
the town and the community well
deserves the most favorabie'notice."
