Country On Verge
of Coal Famine

Reports come from the Head
of the Lakes and railroad officials
that unless the people of the
Northwest make an effort to put
in their coal supply at once there
is great danger of a repetition of
the coal famine, which prevailed
during the winter Of 1906-7. It
is said that not nearly enough
coal to meet the demand has
moved from the Head of the
Lakes and it is claimed the sup
ply sent to North Dakota points
is about so per cent less than at
this time last year. The people
apparently do not realize the ne
cessity of putting in their supply
early. The storage capacity at
the Head of the Lakes is taxed
now and if the people would but
buy early it would enable the re-
taller to order more coal and
thereby ward off the shortage
that is sure to come when the
coal is most needed. Place your
order for Immediate delivery and
play on the safe side.

Every Voter

County Up Against A Straight
Business Proposition and.
Should Be Handled as Such.

A person has only to travel over
Steele county and see the splendid
homes and farm buildings, to realize
that we have a class OF citizens who
take pride in their surroundings.
We should take the same pride in
our county property. Is there any
good reason why we cannot have ex-
cellent accommodations for u Off
Gals and safe and convenient facili-
ties for our county records and pro-
perty? We believe you realize that
we are badly in need Of them. If
there were no other reason for moving
the county seat than to secure people
fire protection, that alone would be
sufficient.
Why not look at the matter square
in the face, and realize how it stands.
We make this statement which we be-
lieve to be true, namely:
HOPE IS THE ONLY PLACE THAT
CAN SECURE THE NECES-
SARY TWO-THIRDS VOTE.
We give some Of u reasons: The
city vote alone is one-sixth of the en-
tire vote of the county. 1t is the only
town seeking the county seat in the
south half of this county, and will nat
urally from geographical reasons have
the 'ssolid SOUTH" We are also very
much gratifed by assurances of sup
port from all over the entire county,
and when the citizens come to study
this question upon the merits of the
different towns this support will grow
very materially. On the other hand
the north half has S~herbrooke, Sharon
and Finley, all desiring the county
seat, and with the vote divided among
so many are we not right in saying
that Hope is the only place possible to
unite on.
The Hope pioneer. [volume] (Hope, N.D.) 1882-1964, 1908-09-03
DON'T THROW YOUR VOTE

AWAY
and unless you vote for Hope that is
just what it will amount to. If you
think the county seal should be moved
your only show is to get together and
unite on the one town that can get the
required vote
Here is another way to look at it:
If you were going to be a county
official land you may be at some fu-
ture time) wouldn't you like to live in
a town where you could give your
children the benefit OF a firstclass high
school education and prepare them for
college or for teaching; a place where
your property is protected from fire by
an organized fire company and $4,000.
fire engine and apparatus; where you
can light your homes by electricity,
which is much safer from fire and more
convenient; where you can have
church and lodge advantages; hotel
accommodations; graded streets and
miles of cement sidewalks; and a
great many other improvements, in
short a town you can be proud of, and
proud to point to as your county seat.
We believe that a good many
citizens think a tax would be a great
deal larger than it really would be.
The county has grown SO that we have
nearly four million dollars in assessed
valuation, and we are out of debt.
A tax of from S7.00 to $1,000 per
quarter section of land, according to
value, would furnish money enough to
build q court house that would be
ample for our county. We think you
will not let this small sum stand in the
way of Steele county having a safe
and convenient place in which to
transact its business, and a court
: house that you can be proud Of.

Hunting Season Opens

The hunting season opened
last Tuesday and long before day
break the nimrods we're leaving
town to be first on the scene Of
action. The chicken and duck
hunting is fairly good but from
all reports chickens are not as
plentiful as was reported before
the open season. Many iocks
are said to be thined down to four
and five birds, which can, per-
haps, be accounted for by some
Of our so called sportsmen. The
different parties report any
where from 5 to IA birds.
