The County Seat Question
Should Be DeCidedOn It's
MeritS---InveSti9ate
Mr.. Voter

The citizens of Hope have read with
interest the article in the Finley Bea-
con on the question OF locating the
county seat. The writer of this arti-
Gle is seemingly a fair minded person,
and we can heartily agree that it is a
serious proposition to face tenyear's
more Of the present Accommodations and
conveniences. BY all means, the
county seat should be moved to the
railroad, and this point conceded, the
question is how to agree on the town
to which it shall be moved. Now we
have no ''bones to pick'' with the citi-
zens of Finley for opening this .ques-
ton up, and are willing that they shall
lay claim to having had ''the courage
of their convictions" but we cannot
help but feel that under the circum-
stances it was a case where "discre.
ton would have been the better part
of valor."
Now we. feel that in deciding this
The Hope pioneer. [volume] (Hope, N.D.) 1882-1964, 1908-05-07

question of location, there are a few
fundamental reasons which should be
taken into consideration, however we
will only touch on a few of them in
this article.
LIST: Which town can accommodate
best the county buildings, the county
officials, and the people who come to
the county seat? Briefly among the
answers to this question we would
cite, Schools, Hotels, City Improve
ments, Electric lights, Fire protection,
etc., etc.
End: BY locating at some point where
the most people who do county bust
ness can be accommodated. Without
figuring to exactness, the four town
ships of which Hope is the center, con-
tains about one-fourth of the popula-
ton of the county. It is safe to as
sumo that more people living in
Finley and Sharon come to Hope
to transact business, and to attend

'HOPE--0F COURSE

In the county seat fight in
Steele county, Hope seems to
haye the best of the argument
from every point of view. Not
only has the metropolis the adj
vantage as to population, location
and modern conveniences, but it
lies as near to the old site as any
of the available villages on the
railroad. Even the present res
idents Of the county seat, includ-
ing the local paper, favor Hope
as the logical county seat of
Steele county.-McVille Journal.
It is easy to see where Lang
came from. Well, we don't
blame him. Hope is a nice town,
with nice people, but the ques-
ton is have they any better if
as good claims for the county
seat as Sharon? We don't see il
that way.-Sharon Reporter.
