carefully weigh the matter and decide
which side Of the fence We represent, or
whether there really is fence or not.
The question as to whether Dillon Is the
best location for the county seat, appears
to bc pretty we'll settled in the minds Of all
who have given it moments thought.
Though not quite the geographical centre
OF the county, Dillon Is at least us near the
centre Of the settled portion as any point
which could be selected, and by far the
most accessible to the inhabitants Of all
parts Of the country. Situated in the matt,
valley traversing the count. to which all
other valleys OF the county are tributaries; !;
easily approached by railway from the North
and South. whereby the expenses Of the
courts and Indebtedness Of the county may
hc very materially diminished.
The cost Of moving the county, erecting
new buildings in which to hold the courts
and for the use Of county officers, is the
bughcar which is making our taxpayers
uueasv. Let us look carefully at this:
The old buildings at Bannack, the con>truc.
tion OF which has absorbed many Of the
luxuri..s heretofore the, toned ON the lower
end ot' our biIl-ot.tare, surely ought to sell
tor enough to pay transportation on the :,r.
rhve> Of the county, and perhaps leave Il
sufficient BALANCE to build the much needed
iail. There are Halls and offices here al.
ready sufficient to accommodate the court
aud county officers, and the Dillon Town
Company after to give bonds, in any sum
the County Commissioners may deem nee
.'s>.lrv. that tn. rent of such buildings shall
not cost the county $500, for the next five
years.
The present county indebtedness is not
tar from $3o,ouD. The taxable property.
located in the county during the past y car
consisting of Railway and appurtenances,
new bull iings and merchandise at Dillon,
is valued in round numbers ut over half /,
million. The taxes on this alone, without
in.:c ism. the rate will in three years pay
ntf III. present county debt, leaving the or
Lnarv expenses Of the county to fall on the
al property.

only t, the wealto OF Dillon, but the wealth
and prosperity OF the county.
