Why the Old Site
Better
CITY HALL--FIRE DEPARTMENT
A Few Of the Many Reasons it Should be
located on the Original Site.

First This site selected by the City six in pref
any other location in the city.
Second Because it centrally located the city has
built and will continue build the south therefore the
Fire Department should remain the center as
possible
Third Because shape Of the original site rs by 70
will permit of a much commodious and artistic build
ing than the so feet proposed Main Street
Fourth the original site has front compared
with the south front proposed Main Street
Fifth Because we voted bonds this building with the
implied understanding that it would be located on the
original site No other site proposed or thought of
that time.
Sixth Because this strictly PUBLIC BUILDING and should
be located for the benefit of the City and not to be enhance
the property holdings increase the business of
any individual particular street.
Seventh Because will cost the City $850O0 to
around the Main Street it will pave the Orig
Add this the of building the less
compact necessary so ft lot, and
will given away the entire value of the old site for
the privilege of moving Main Street and have nothing
left for Fire Equipment

building. That it had always
been the evident choice of a ma
iority of the people, was recog-
nized by the Main street crowd
when they persistently refused
to allow the matter to go to the
vote of the people until forced
by the evident spirit of the
courts.
1t is the evident choice of the
majority of the people because
it has every advantage which
the Main street site does not
possess. the boosters of the Main
street site themselves being the
judges. Else why do they con-
tinually add to their bribes,
first one lot, then two lots, then
the sale of the old site and now
the ten two story bricks which
are to be built if this location is
chosen? And what are some of
the advantages so evident to all?
1st. The old lot being rs feet
wide instead of so admits of the
erection of a building full wide
enough and the reserve of a
space between it and any other
building that may be erected in
the future, thus exposing the
city building on all sides to the
open and assuring cool and airy
rooms; a thing that would be inn
possible with the Main street
site, when we remember that.
End. The Main street site
fronts south and west, exposing
all its room to the glaring light
and heat cf the summer sun the
larger part of the day. While
the old site fronts to the east
and north, by all odds the mos
desirable for any building anC
no small matter in locating ;
public building; especially wher
were member it is to also hold ou

are asked to forego, because tn

THE OTHER SIDE
of the City
HALL QUESTION

For it has another side, tho
it has occupied no newspaper
space, or hired opera houses to
present its cause. 1t is the hit
dog that does the bowling,
The Other Side, confident in the
wisdom and justice of its cause,
has so far kept silent, but lest
its silence be misunderstood it is
now time to speak.
The Main street location is
urged upon the public on the
score that the site, so X 100 feet,
will be paved with asphalt ''on
both sides" But Sixth street is
also to be paved and alta saving
of the difference between rs feet
frontage and so plus 100 plus
81 1-2 (277 1-2 feet). A differ
ence which means an additional
expenditure of $3.50. More
nearly the value of the old site
than the three or four thousand
claimed. And if we add to the
cost of paving the additional
cost which comes from the build
ing of a less compact, rather
than a more compact city build
ing, we may without unfairness
dismiss any argument there may
be in selling the old site and ap-
plying the funds to the payment
of the fire fighting apparatus.
With the argument of financial
gain gone, what is there to be
said in favor of the new site
over the old?
Other things now being ever
there remain these differences
in favor of the old site:
First 1t is the old ste; tn,
one that nine-tenths of the vot
ers who voted for the city hal
bonds thought they were voting
for as the location of the ney

THE CITY HALL
Points Urged in Favor Of the
Main Street Location

The Main street location, 80 x 100
feet, costs the city nothing, thereby
leaving the old location, worth three
or four Thousand dollars, clear either
to build a market house on or to be
sold to pay FIRE equipment indebted
ness.
The Main street location has no re-
version clause but the city is to have
an absolutely clear title.
The Main street location will have
paved asphalt streets on both sides
and is one of the prominent corners
of the city.
The city hall if built on the MAN
street corner, will be seen by the
people on all trains passing through
the city.
All the other public buildings have
been located on Broadway and the
Main street property owners feel that
they are justified in asking for this
improvement.
On the strength of the building OF
the city hall on Main street ten new
two story brick buildings are planned
and will probably be erected if the
Main street site is selected.

Arguments Pro and Con in City
Building Location Controversy
Why the Main Street
Site is the Better

Now. who opened the sectional
street dEht? Judge for yourself The
city council voted to locate the city
hall on the corner of Main aud Sixth.
Now, did the Main street fellows cry
fraud and take Jhe matter mp IN the
courts? Not much the people who
determined that. Notwithstanding the
two schools, the court house and the
postofFce were located on Broadway

ed there, are .Hausible for the sec
tional fight aol they need not try to
dodge the responsibility. The spirit
is manifest 10 Mr. Cox's statement in

ANSWERS
CritiCiSmSMade

va i SAOANJAAANy AVA GSNAO
We are very glad our friend
Cox has at last decided to take
the people into his confidence
and discuss such a public ques-
tion as the location Of n City
Hall. although I am sorry he has
seen ft to criticize me for trying
through a public mass meeting
at the opera house and newspa-
per articles to place this matter
fully before the people who, in
my judgment, were entitled to
all the information obtainable.
If appealing to the people pub
licly is bowling as a hit dog, then
| will be heard frequently howl
ing, for my plan always is to go
directly and publicly before the
people with my arguments and
trust to their verdict. 1t has al
ways been my belief that a man
confident of the Justice of his
Cause courts publicity and does
not lurk in the shadows.
In Mr.. Cox's first argument
he makes a statement that is, at
least, misleading. He says Six
tn street is also to be paved, but
does not state that the paving on
Sixth is only to extend from N.
Boundry to the alley between
Main and Broadway and does
not reach the old site by block.
We hope that sometime in the
future both Sixth street in front
of the old site and Broadway
will be paved, but certainly a
man making the statement that
it will be paved must do so with
many mental reservations. The
statement could be made with
equal truth that it will be locat-
ed on a street car line, for some
day we hope that will be true.
Again, Mr.. Cox states that a
more compact building can be
built on a space rs x rs than on
a space so x 100. That is a mat
te that depends altogether on the
plans adopted. Some styles OF
building are much more suitable
to one lot than to the other.
Personally, | would prefer q
handsome building on a corner
but that, it seems to me, would
be question of personal prefer
ence.
Speaking of bribes; maybe
that accounts for our losing the
agricultural school Mr. Cox
to be consistent, should have
urged that my offer of 80 acres
for site for the school was .brib,
and if the idea was properl!
sushed before the agriculture
board it would possibly accoun
for the otherwise mysteriou
change at the last moment.
In regard to central location, m
friend Cox gets considerably mixed
He says the old site is SO much
MUCH more centrally located an
yet follows that with the statemen
. that the old sit', opening, that
fronting on a LITTLE USED stree
will be easier for the fire wagon t
get good start, whereas he state
the new site opens, that is, fronts o
a very crowded street. Now, my dea
friends. taking Mr. Cox's own state
ment which is the prominent and Ger
tral location? the LITTLE USE
