dollar Of taxable property in the county
for the purpose of maintaining the
school. There will probably be no
necessity of erecting a building for a
number of years, as the Choteau district
will furnish suitable quarters to the
county rent free. This will bring the
cost Of the school down to actual run
ming expenses, which should not exceed
$4,000 for the first year, allowing a liber
al salary for the principal, also the prob
able expenditure for fuel and equipment,
A levy of one mill on the dollar would
produce more than this sum and, we
believe, an amount fully adequate to
cover the expenses. Such a levy would
mean additional taxation to the amout
If one dollar on every thousand Of tax
able property, but the benefit to be de-
rived would amply repay the outlay.
The school would be absolutely free to
all scholars of the county who we're
sufficiently advanced to pass the exam
ination, and the necessity of leaving the
county to acquire a higher education
would be obviated. There are now 81
children in Choteau who are eligible for
admission to a high school, and should
n be established, it would not be long
before the people generally would recog-
nize its advantages and provide the
means of securing a suitable degree of
education for their children, when now
they feel compelled to deny them the
privilege on account of the discouraging
prospect of sending them to distant
points, which involves long separations
and great expense. By all means let us
have a high school.
