The new counties of Harding
and Perkins present conditions
somewhat similar to what might
be encountered in the organizat-
ION of Haakon and Jackson coun
ties. While they are somewhat
larger, the assessed valuations
of the two proposed counties
will be greater. Their expenses
have been somewhat increased
bv the fact that they had no inn
provements in the way of roads
and bridges to start with and
also by the fact that they were
without railroads and had to es-
tablish the county seats inland.
This must to a certain extent
increase the cost of county gov
ernment. Yet during the year
ending June 30, 1913 the total
expenditures Of Harding county
for county purposes was $2S,-
479.40 and that Of Perkins coun-
ty $56,427 81. For the same per
iod the county expenditures Of
Stanley county were $173,953.54.
Perkins and Harding counties
were set off from Butte county
by the election of 1908 and the
Legislature that met in January
1909, SO they had been in oper-
alton over four years at the
close of the fiscal year June 30
1913. Perkins county had out
standing warrants amounting to
$64 ,4O4. .33 and bonded indebt-
ednesS of $l06,000.00. A large
part of this had been taken over
from Butte county which was
prior to division in debt nearly
half a million. But against this
indebtedness Perkins county had
property consisting of court
house, Jail, and other assets
amounting to $139,349.96. In
! other words its met Indebtedness
after all the expenses of getting
the county started, was about
thirty thousand dollars. Harding
county, at the same time, four
and a half years after its organ
ization had warrant indebted
ness of $l1, 1892 and a bond in
debtednesS Of $50, 10000. 1t
had property on hand of the
value of $44, ,382.4S. Instead of
having net indebtedness it
had property on hand to the
amount Of more than three
thousand dollars above its debts.
IF you will take the time to
study these figures carefully you
will certainly come to the con
clusiOn that no great financial
disaster or burden of taxation
has come upon Harding or Per
kins county through division. 1t
is safe to say that these coun-
ties haven't a dollar of debt out
side of what they inherited from
Butte county. AS it is no one
can look to them for example,
and predict a great burden of
expense and taxation for Haa-
kon and jackson counties.

Interesting Comments On
County Division Question

sick. We do not vouch for its
truth. but here it is. A young
fellow far out in the northwest
corner of the county had made
up his mind to get married. The
girl was willing, too. So he gath
cred his goods, sold portion
thereof, and started for Fort
Pierre to see Andy Ricketts, and
get "A marriage license. He was
gone five days, and upon his
return his friends broke the
news and his heart at the same
time by telling him that the
young lady had changed her
mud, gone to San Francisco,
and there married another. That
fellow wild vote for county divis-
ION.

After all, the primary question
in This county division matter il
not whether taxes will be de-
creased or increased. Our belief
is that there will likely be little
change one way or the other for
the first five years. After that
there is bound to be decrease.
The main question, however, is
will we get better and more
satisfactory county government
for the taxes we do payf I'm
other words, will we get more
to show for our money, if we
have a smaller territory for our
county?
