FOR a PUBLICITY
Legislative Appropriation Small But
Puts State in Procession

RUS Stata IN PROCESSION
Pierre-south Dakota is in line with
other northwestern states to begin
an advertising campaign for the de-
velopment of the state-with a posi-
bic If attached. This possibility is
the intent of the members who were
opposing such action, to carry the
matter to the referendum. After they
get away from the excitement of the
occasion they may change their minds
in regard to such action, or they may
not. Their plea was that the state
would carry the question up K the
people to save 1t.
The appropriation for that depart
ment az finally left. carried s17,500 for
two years, an amount SO small when
compared with what other northwest
ern states are doing in that direction
that it will no doubt create a smile
when looked at from other states, but
that was all which could be secured
and it will make a start. AS to the
expense under the new plan of sub
mission of referred laws to the vot-
ers, 1t will cost from three to five
cents to each voter To submit any
proposition, and submission of this
law will meet such a cost.
The appropriation only carries one
and one-half cents for the first year
and two and one-half cents for the
second year, to carry out the pro-
visions Of the law would be cheaper to
the people Of the state than would be
submission. On a question OF state
valuation, the amount appropriated
for this purpose is one hundredth of
one per cent of the assessed valuation
Of the state, one cent out Of each one
hrndred dollars of taxes paid; which
will be used to boost the state and its
resources. And yet there is another
feature. The amount asked is about
One-tenth of n cent an acre on the
state lands. If by using that amount
in advertising, the value of such lands
could be raised only n cent an acre,
the state would be far ahead and the
increase would no doubt run into dol
lars instead of cents. One opponent
said it might be "all rght for the real
estate men to advertise because Of the
money they made out of it, but he did
not believe in the state paying for
their Advertising"
If real estate men with a very small
area of land to handle can make
money by advertising, why not the
state with it's millions of acres? These
are a few points which the people of
the state should consider when petit
tons are presented to them. if they
ever get around. The economy would
be to decline, to sign as the state will
he ahead even if the advertising would
not bring a cent of increase, but the
gain in that line will be thousands,
and such economy would be the most
costly the state could indulge in.

State Treasurer's Accounts

Pierre-The examination of the
state treasurer's Office by Deputy
Public Examiner c. A. Fountain
for the period from April, 1909, to
January, 1911, has just been complet-
ed. The receipts of the office for this
time were $5,376, 507.44, disbursements
$5,S0S, 524.60, leaving a balance liz the
treasury Of s554,514,1s, about $500, 000
less than at the previous examina-
ton. The amount of interest paid by
the state during that time on state
debt is 37,S46.34, which amount, less
the interest on the evenu warrants
outstanding, is practically offset by
the amount of interest turned into the
Office from repositories.
