ments Of Those Opposed
to New Court House.
To the Editor:

@o NiiC AIullOl.
At the April meeting Of the county
commissioners there was a resolu-
ton adopted submitting to the voters
the question whether or not to issue
bonds for the building Of a court
house. Since that time there has
been considerable speculation as to
the best method of raising funds and
also as to the cost to the taxpayer. l
wish to present at this time my idea
OF the method to be used in this bond
issue of $500, 00O-as ! have given
his matter some thought.
We will look at his matter from a
business standpoint. The present
courthouse, as every taxpayer we'll
knows is no longer adequate for the
needs OF the county. The vault room
is crowded and. in my opinion is not
a safe place for the valuable records
of the county. The building is old
and without foundations; costs a great
deal for repairs and for high insur-
ance; is expensive to heat. and, as
a matter of fact there will have to be
considerable money spent very soon
in order to keep the valuable papers
safe. 1t will only be a very few years
until we will be obliged to build any.
way so that all the money spent in
repairs is absolutely thrown away.
Now. l want to say that my interest
IN his matter Is just the same as the
interest of any taxpayer and IL the
voters OF the county don't want to
build a courthouse l certainly have
nothing to cay.
My idea of the method to be fol.
lowed and in my opinion the cheapest
way to raise h necessary funds for
this purpose is to sell twenty veal sir
ial bonds. n twentieth coming due
each year. In this way we can build
a beautiful courthouse, pay for 1t in
twenty years and not feel the ex-
pense. An effort has been made to
explain to the taxpayers that the
bond issue would cost. and 1t has been
claimed that a bond issue of 5000, 900
would cost the county $400.0 900 and in
computing there has been put in, in
terest. $4,000. insurance $4,000 in
order to make out $500, 900. Now. as
this is misleading. / fee as a member
Of h board of county commissioners
that 1t is up to me to present the
matter to the taxpayers, to tell them
just what We propose to do and 1 be-
lieve that the people will see that
these figures are not correct. I
therefore submit for your inspection
h figures representing a 5000, 900
bond issue. one twentieth coming due

The following statement shows, the
amount of interest due each year, and
IN the total figure that is presented is
included $4,000 as the annual paw

200, spread over a period Of twenty
years. This would cost about 81 per
year on $1,000 assessed valuation of
the county. AS the valuation of the
county has doubled in the last ten
years it is safe to presume tina the in
crease in valuation will cut this levy
very much below the above one mill
levy.
AS a matter Of fact the total interest
paid by this method would be 1884,
200 spread over twenty years. This
would amount in all to $%284.200. The
time is over $14.o00.0 900. SO the one
mill levy would mean $4,000 a year
for twenty years which would amount
to $2S0,000. The total cost of the
bond issue, interest and principal
would be 32S4,2O0. Don't you think
that it would be safe to say that the
county valuation would increase
enough to at least take care Of the
$4,000 which would be the amuont
exceeding the regular n mill levy at
the present valuation. This of course
is not charging anything for insur-
ance for which an incorrect estimate
of 100000 has been made. as any
bushes man will admit that the in
surance on a good fireproof building
will not be as high as on an old wood
en- building. In fact we will not need
insurance on the building at all,
whereas we now pay high premiums
for insuring the old one. We are
paying out now on repairs. insurance
and extra fuel for heating possibly
one-half as much money al the inter-
est on the bonds would come to and
this money Is absolutely thrown
away.
SO far as this being an expensive
time to build 10 concerned I want to
say that this is not a fact. As proof
of this statement I will cite to o
the cost Of the courthouse to be
built in Pembina county as compared
with the cost of. the courthouse Of
the same kind built prior to this time.
You will ind that the contract price
Of the Cavalier courthouse is the
cheapest of my courthouse ever built
in the state taking quantity Of build
ing into consideration.
I feel that every taxpayer should
figure out this proposition for him
self, and 1t il. for this purpose that I
have undertaken to lay before them
the conditions and the exact figures
as to valuation: the condition Of the
old courthouse. the necessity for Il
new one, the expense Of keeping up
the old one. the proportion to be
paid by the farmers and the ~
ton to be paid by the other taxable
