AS TO THE ABERDEEN NORMAL.
(IJLRSE

White Lake Standard: Petitions
are being circulated for a referen-
dun vote on the Aberdeen Normal
school university bill passed by the
last Legislature and we believe that
be obtained. While at first glance il
may look as if the opportunities for
brooder education would be increas-
ed by adding a collegiate course to
the Northern Normal school, such is
likely not to be the case in fact. A
strong university can not exist with
out a reasonably large body of stu
dents. In a rather thinly settled state
like South Dakota our present cent
rallied university system surely maxi
es for efficiency more than would a
plan of scattered so-called univer-
stiles too weak to support a real uni
versity course and unable to secure
a standing with the educational sys-
TENS of other states. One strong uni
versity is better than two or more
weak institutions. If Aberdeen is to
have a collegiate course, then why
not Spearish, Madisan and Spring
field? Where is the line to be drawn?
~ niul SNllcOlS VI Liz 0lutC nave
their own special work TO do and are
doing it we'll. The Bookings and the
Vermillion institutions also have
their own fields and are making good.
The UNCONVENTIONAL colleges of the
state are accessible and provide eX-
cellent opportunities for higher edu-
cation. These schools must deterior-
ate in the quality OF their work if the
attempt is made to spread out to take
in all the special features properly
belonging to the other institutions.
The bill for a university at Aber-
deem was not passed because there
was a demand for it over the state
but because Aberdeen demanded it.
Do the people of the state
want to spend their money in
building up a new school for
the benefit of one town rather
than for the strengthening of II
present state schools in their special
fields for the benefit of all the peo-
pie of the state?

900, then five mills or one-half OF
one per cent would be sufficient to
produce the required $4,000. In the
first case AS property being assessed
at $1,000, he pays SO in taxes; in
the second place, while his assessed
value has been doubled. the rate has
been cut in half, and he still pays
but $40 in taxes. The rate then be-
ONE a mere incident, and not at all
a matter of first Importance"
This is all true enough-in a
deal more in the subject than the
commission has stated in this article.
Perhaps the dangers of excessive lev
articles by the commission. Let us
hope so, at least.
OF course it is rue the levy is cal
culated from the assessment and the
amount which it is desired to raise.
Bnt just the same requsitions have
been made again and again i'm this
state, and right mere in this county,
for sums that could not be obtained
under the maximum levies allowed
by the state laws. These maximum
leyies YER fixed with the assumption
that the valuation of property would
not exceed it's actual worth. To he
sure, the levy is the 'factor used to
compute the proportion of the total
tax that each taxpayer should con
tribute" But under the present sys-
TEN, If any board or official in any
assessment district in the state asks
lawfully for the fund in question,
word is Sent back to revise the esti-
mate and ask for less money. That
being the case, is it right to moke be
lieve that the matter of limiting the
lavies that may be made for the var
ions funds is OF no Importance or
consequence?
Again, the limitation of levies for
various funds must operate to cur
tail taxes in another way. The law
of the state fixes n right limit to the
bonded Indebtedness that may be in
Cured by any municipal corporation,
for example. This limit is based upon
the assessment. When the assessment
is raised from a basis of one third
to one of par, this of course raises
the limit of bonded Indebtedness pro-
portionately. That means that towns
and cities can borrow three times as
much money upon bond issues under
the new assessment, than they could
under the old basis of assessment.
This means an increase in the
amount required for sinking funds
and for bond interest funds. Limits
upon the levies for these two funds
would tend to prevent excessive Dor
rowing, eve if the limit of indebted
ness had not been reached.
In the opinion of The Republican,
it is wholesome legislation that pre-
scrlbes a limit for levies for various
funds and also for bond issues. Not
only should the old levy limits be
revised on account of the change in
the basis OF assessment, but it would
be we'll to go farther and prescribe a
limit for the aggregate levy thai
could be assessed to any taxpayer
That would not only protect the pro-
performers against extravaganza
but would also furnish a constant
incentive to secure a real par assess.

season why fruit-growers in the west
have followed the plan of forming
associations. 1t is almost necessary
IN order TO obtain the necessary ship
ping rates and facilities. And of
course any producer, located any
where, cannot get into one of these
associations. 1t is not at all difficult
to find places in the far west where

cumulated a competence to risk it
in a venture in a strange land, where
he must encounter conditions with
which he is not at all familiar. This

it were a fact that much greater prof

there would be a rush to the Pacific
coast such as occurred upon the dis
covery Of gold there.
1t is not mere patriotism that leads
The Republican to the belief that in
no part of the United States can be
found a more promising field than
is South Dakota. 1t is u matter of
conviction and is capable of demon
stration-to the satisfaction of The
Republican, as least.
