where he will be located. Work can be
left any time during the week. He will
also order anything IN his line which you
may want.
Our county commissioner should, and we
believe will, reconsider their decision In the
matter Of expenses In the tight over the
school Of forestry. That the county should
1t least help bear this expense, NO reasonable
man can doubt. The case is this: Prior to
the election, Bottineau business men went
down in their pockets and put up money
sunacient to pay all legitimate expenses OF a
cs,nl sign for the location. This money was
given freely and at a time when the location
Was very uncertain, and bv MEN who knew
that, II successful, the entire county would
be benefited thereby. Tue amount was
rlose to $sO0-nearly as much as the com
m!ssioners are askel t" ply for Gusts Of
Aorhf}uO ss,rn thioD nnf.,ro ol>ot;or
when two towns In the county were com
pcting for tho location. 1t was perfectly
right for each to pay its W. expenses, but
when it became . contest between Minot and
Bo.tineau, the entire county WAS interested,
Que section as much as another, and It is
but the simplest justice that those benefited
should bear the burden. The action of the
commissioners in their refusal has endarg'
the county, as our business men are inclined
t. stop the fight anil let it 90 to Miuot by
default. This could be done even yet, and
while we dpprecate such action, still We
could attach MT blame to those doing 1t. II
the taxpayers of this county--the uen who
have children to educafe,- want the school
in Bottineau comfy, they should urge Their
commissioners to do what is right In the
matter.
