The Independent understands that
few of the farmers are not in -
vor of the county fair tax, because
the fair has been located at Minot.
Now this should not make any par.
ticular difference, in fact those far
mers ought to be glad that the fair
is located in our progressive city.
Minot is your city and you should be
proud Of it. You ought to be glad
that your farm lies not far from the
metropolis of western North Dakota
for this is bound to prove of benefit
to you in more ways than one. How
ever, the location of the fair is up to
the fair association itself, and if that
organization of which many farmers
are members should want the loca.
ton changed at any time. 1t would
have full power to do so. IF you
don't think that the fair is good
thing for you, why vote against the
tax. The location Of the fair should
have nothing to do with forming your
conclusions.
