and that the general public
would be best served by having
tn county divided. The lines
proposed in the creation Of
Hanna county, will, we believe,
appeal to all as fair and reason

in compact form and nice lot
Of territory and a good assessed
valuation to conduct county or

tory and it will be admitted that
there is ample territory to make
up two good sized counties. It
is generally admitted that the
contention for division is fair and
reasonable and the only dispute
is as to what the lines of division
should be. The opposition to
county division in the past has
been more to the lines proposed
than to the proposition Of divis-
ion. It is pretty generally ad-

November 3rd the voters of

the opportunity to vote on the
proposition to divide Mclean

that will be before the voters

COUNTY DIVISION Is
SURE TO CARRY

The above map showing the
manner in which it is sought to
divide Mclean county at the
coming election in November is
itself one of the best arguments
for county division that anyone
could present. No fairer division
could possibly be offered for
both the proposed new county
and the old. It can be plainly
seen, by referring to the map,
what an enormous expense it is
to the tax payers Of the county
to have processes served from
the county seat to the various
points in the north end of the
county. Those who fear that
dividing the county will increase
the taxes, will have only to look
at the map to see that the ex-
pense Of conducting the affairs
Of the county with its present
boundaries is more than doubl,
what it would be If the county
were only half its present size.
We believe that the two counties
can be run at a less expense than
the present county is.
The superintendent of Schools
is required to make at least three
visits each year to every school
in the county. The expense of
mileage for a trip from Wash
burn to, Dogden would amount to
the school tax levied on q half
section Of land. Every time
jury is drawn, the expense to
the county is something enor-
NOUS. Think of what the mile
age Of one juror from Raub to
Washburn and returning would
amount to, saying nothing of
the time required in travelling to
and from the county seat. This
would be cutin two if the county
were divided and at the same
4ime mileage would be PRACTICAL
eliminated for the jurors drawn
from the central part Of the new
county, for where now they are
50 miles from the county seat, in
the new county the same juror
would be within very few miles
Of the county seat. These are
only q few instances where
great saving would be made for
the county.
Not only should expense be
considered, but convenience as

the wealth of a cultured, ex-.
perienced, studious mind brought:
to bear upon them. The at
torneys practicing before the,

that he puts wisdom, conscience
and careful attention into all
his work.

be no experiment, no changing at
this time. He should be reflect

Of the six different county
