AN INVITING PROSPECT.

(To the Editor “Stratford Post.”) Sir,—Should the loans be carried to-morrow, our rate-cards will by-and-by read as follows: —“I hereby demand from you, etc., General Rato of 2|d in the £ Special ~ ~ Id ~ ~ „ „ » 5-16 d ~ .id !, » » M U >’ ” „ „ „ l-10d „ „ „ „ 1 5-16 „ „ „ „» „ „ » 746(1 ~ ~ o id ,j <> Total ... ... • 7 3-16 d „ Add a water-rate of 6d on the annual value and the whole should satisfy the most enthusiastic believer in pro-

gross. It is a matter of taste, but I rather think I prefer the County Council demands, which range from 2(d downwards on the land immediately surrounding the borough. in theso days of bikes and motor-cars, one may as well live just outside the borough as inside.—Yours, etc., T. HARRY PENN.
