There is no haste about the matter
and that much opposition should
develope was not anticipated, but
since the opposition has developed, we
will try to meet it frankly and fairly,
even though it is Shamefaced and
travels over no mans name. Phil
lipSburg always has, and expects to
continue to contribute to public i'm
provements needed through the coun-
ty cheerfulfy and to do our full share
toward the county High School with
out regard to its location. We are,
however, in this positions we are
maintaining what we believe to be
as good a school as is maintained in
the county, and will continue to do SO.
No part of the county is so little in
need of county High School as Phil
lipsburg. A large number of outside
pupils are attending our school paying
tuition and assisting very much in
the maintenance, and experience
proves these pupils will increase as
the county grows older, SO at home our
school prospect is not so bad. If the rest
of the county does not wish High
School, PhilIipsburg will not try by
trickery, cajolery or unfair means to
force one upon the county, but, if after
carefully weighing the matter con-
sidering its advantages and disadvan-
tages, the liberal, progressive citizens
desire school that will be a rich
heritage to their offspring, Phillips
burg is openly, fairly and Squarely
with you.

Everyone admits that our present
system of taxation is unjust and OPP
pressive. Everyone also agrees that
if the burdens of taxation were
equitably distributed among all who
ought to pay taxes, that no one would
be oppressed. That's just what the
single tax would do. Investigate and
see if you do not favor it.
