4th
Appointed
Member
(Blackwood)
remarked:
Mr.
Chairman.
The
protest
was handed
to
me
by
a number
of tax-
payers
in
this
islamd
(the
Member read
the
protest)
and
continuing
said,—The
proponent
of the bill claims
that they do
not have
any representation
in this Coun-
cil, but
I claim
they have,
and
[
claim
that
we
are
here
to
represent
them.
There
were
about
ten
town
people also
who
signed
this
protest
they
did
it by
way of supporting
me;
I have
no support
here
in the Council.
The
idea of forcing
bonds
on the people
is unfair;
the
pro-
duction
of
the
island
is
falling off,
we
havn’t
sufficient
laborers,
and
the
sow
we have
are
not
giving satisfaction.
[
am
standing
here
legislating
for
the
benefit of
the
community, and
when
it
comes
to
one
man
running
the
whole
island and
freezing
out every body eise,
1 will
not
stand
for it:
it is anfair
1
know
many
of the tax-payers
are against
this proposal,
and I do
not
blame
them.
All T know about
a concrete
road
is
what
I have
been
told
by
others
who
claim
to have
some
knowledge
about
it.
lam
told
by
men
with
experience
that
vou
cannot
drive
a
barefooted
or
smooth
shod
animal
on
a
concrete
road.
To
drive on a concrete
road
their shoes
must
have steel
corks
on
them.
Do
you think
the low cart
man
and
the
squatter
will
be
abie
to
stand
such
expense?
[
do
not think they would.
I would
be
very
glad
to
see
this
island
keep
out
of
a
SIOO,OOO
bond
debt.

Why I ask
the
guestion
is because
I find

cussed,
it is

an

Mr

After read-
ing the
sect:ons
of
the amendment
if the
Council desires
to
use it as
a
new bill, it
would make
no differonce with me.
Tlhne

with

I
would
like
to ask
if every
squatter
or
every
man
who
owns
a
ten acres
of land,
would,
according
to
this
amendment,
have
to pay
a
tax of B'rs. 50?
What about
the
man
who raises

ecat-
tie?
