Removal would mean a large additional tax ifty levy for every one of us to pay for a If it were not for the coal, grain and livestock shipped from Wilton, I think this same con- ductor would be looking for @ job. Maybe after the capital fight is over, when we want to ship cream we can guess within four hours of when the train will be along. In the dope sent out they try to mislead the voters on the mileage cost of the legislators. They figure the actual amount paid for mileage in 1931, This mileage was figured on the actual mileage traveled, some of which was traveled by automobile from their residence to railroad sta- tion, being quite a distance for some. In figuring the distance to James- town they have only figured from the railroad station, leaving out the dis- tance from their homes to the sta- tion, which would amount to consid- erable mileage. They talk about saving the taxpay- ers money. Some of the legislators have not forgotten how cheap James- town let us have land for a well at the asylym. They sent some of their saintly politicians up to the legisla- ture and told us if the asylum burned down we would be held responsible. If they hold the state up forty thou- sand dollars for a well, can you figure how much they would hold it up for a site large enough to accommodate the capitol? No one can estimate the loss to Bismarck and vicinity. If it were not for Bismarck buying our produce we would be getting about seven cents per dozen for eggs now, as that is all they would be worth to ship, I have heard the argument put up that Bis- marck was killing the small towns. It is not Bismarck, it is the good roads and the automobiles. Bismarck is not to blame. Any mer- chant will take the trade if he can get it, there are a few persons who say they are against Bismarck on account of the rotten politics there. I wonder if this is the only town in the state affected that way? I don’t think the Politicians of Jamestown have any trouble getting their coats on over their wings. Judging from the way they mis- represent things in their literature on removal, they figure the southwest Portion of the state nearer James- town because the roads happen to be blocked once and a k came that way. I have seen the Wilton- Pingree road blocked with snow for two weeks at a time. Why don’t they figure my mileage to Jamestown through Minot. It would be just as fair as to figure the southwest through Aberdeen. Anyone who will Jay all prejudice aside and give the mattes a little thought will surely vote NO. Some of the Jamestown workers have made the statement that the state west of the river is worthless. If they would buy the coal in one town- ship west of the Missouri river at two dollars per ton, they would then real- ize where North Dakota's wealth lies. bd would take all of Jamestown to do If the capital were at Jamestown the freight on coal would more than offset the mileage of the legislators. My guess is that many who vote on this question will see the Missouri river open for navigation, and see Bismarck one of the business centers of the west. The capital belongs to the people of the state and it is up to every city that has a state institution to help Bismarck retain it, for if Jamestown should be successful they would be for | ¢ grabbing some of the other institu- tions. Everyone should get. out and vote NO. And vote early in the day so as to give the committees a chance to get the vote out 100 per cent, Boost for Bismarck. J. M. THOMPSON, Wilton, N. ‘Dak. A GOOD ARGUMENT Bismarck, N. Dak. March llth, 1932. Editor, Tribune: You are doing well with your notes on the capital removal—however, one more thought might help. It is as though one building of the insane hospital should burn and it should be suggested that the whole institution be moved to another town and rebuilt entire in the interest of “economy.” It is only the main building of the capitol here that has burned—the other two buildings are still intact and in use. Why rebuild the whole institution because one building has to be rebuilt—a building which had to be replaced anyway on account of age. If one building of a college or uni- versity should bum where is the sense in moving the whole institution and rebuilding it—explain the “eco- nomy.” : Now, we all know that this removal idea is unsound—but on account of the restless state of mind of the peo: ple now, there must be no sparing of effort up to the last minute. People may vote for a change now—you un- small handful of politicians to satis- fy_themselves. Bismarck was selected in 1883 and 1889. In 1883 the territorial legis- lature at Yankton appointed a com- mission to select a site and it picked Bistharck. If Jamestown was so in- terested that was the time to get the statehouse. is But for this present time the voters Toads have put every tax- @ short distance of the anyway. That is why booster for good roads | the state in 1917 until now it is our state institutions, has one of the largest institutions, namely the insane asylum. But Jamestown would have we taxpayers build a statehouse on wheels to satis- fy some second-rate politicians. T have written this article to rep- resent the taxpayers’ association of Pierce county, of which I am a direc- tor. I have an interest in taxation and in the farmer and I know that farmers and others have reached the point where they can hardly pay tax- es anymore. I am paying my share on nine quarters of land I own. We are not soliciting an increase in tax- es. But we sure will do our part to decrease the tax burden if all the taxpayers will do their part at the next election in June. It is easy to blame tax-spending bodies wholly for high taxes, while overlooking the public, sometimes. At other times some politicians de- mand increased expenditures for the taxpayer, such as in this capital re- moval. In all history no political organ- ization has ever been built up on an economy basis and none has ever backed the public and the taxpayer. Hoping every voter in the state will vote NO on the capital removal ballot.
