Increased Valuation in Property
Brought About Through Prox-
unity to a Live Town.
THE most important factors that
Community Development Series No. 4
Copyright Applied For)


= enter into the establishing Of land values are:
Fertility of soil, climate and proximity to live
town This is not intended to include artificial or
fluctuating values brought about by injudcious
booming One of the greatest factors is proximity
to a live toWn, by which we mean town with all
the advantages mentioned in last weeks article
How much was land worth in this country fifty years
ago? 1t could have been had for the asking What
was it worth twenty-five years ago? The records
show that the best land in this vicinity was selling
at from $1,000 to S25. 90.
About rs years ago some of the land in territory
adjacent to Hurley was sold at two to three thousand
dollars per quarter section, five years later some
OF the same land was sold at $2500 to $500 per
quarter. During the next five years there was an
other raise OF about 20 per cent. And during the
past fifteen years the advance in price has been from
. per cent to ten per cent per year. Hurley as a
market town and trading center for this community
has been TO great extent instrumental in bringing
about this increase in value until in this year 1915
some OF our lands, not considering Improvements,
are worth over $125. 90 per acre.
What makes the difference? The soil is the same
as it was twenty five years ago. The climate is
practically the same, and SO with the moisture
There was at that time farmer practically on every
quarter; SO the increase in population cut a very
small figure. What is it them that is responsible for
this rapid advance? The answer is contained in the
heading under which this article is written Other
things make some difference to be sure, but what
did the fertility of the soil amount to before there
was market town; what farmer would pay q large
price for land unless there was live town nearby
where he could get the hundreds of advantages, a
few OF which mentioned last week, not possible
to one living hundred miles from town?
To you who are land owners, whether within the
city limits or within radius Of ten miles of Ourtown
you have it within your power further increase the
value Of your holdings by spending every dollar of
your earnings, which must be expended for living,
in this town Every dollar that is sent to Chicago
or other eastern cities is dollarw whose influence will
have nothing to do with the increased valuation Of
your property.

SALES OF LIQUOR AT
AUCTION BY OFFICER
UPHELD BY CALDWELL
Attorney General Claims 1t Is
Close Question In DEGREES
of Various States.

Pierre. S. D.. tune 21.-That a sheriff
In selling liquors which have been
seized, does not need a license for so
doing. because he is performing a min
isterial official act, under the law. and
that he may use his own judgment
about accepting bids In such sale as
to whom the liquor may be sold. but IS
advised to refuse to sell to prohibited
persons. is the holding OF the attorney
general on inquiry from Potter
county.
The question is an intricate one, the
attorney general says, "a question up-
on which the courts of several states
are no In harmony" The right to
levy upon Intoxicating liquors for
debts of the owner has been denied by
one line Of authorities on the ground
that as the sale thereof is prohibited
except by persons having a license,
therefore. an officer of the law cannot
sale and as such sales Is forbidden by
implication the seizure is likewise pro
hibited.
Attorney General Caldwell rules from
several statutory opinions and says:
II think it is clear that 1t is the engag
ing in business which is licensed in
this state. and since the sheriff who
leyies upon a stock Of Intoxicating
liquors and offers the same for sale is
not engaged in the business of selling
liquors, but is merely doing his duty
as an officer OF the court, I am salts
fled that our courts would hold that
the sheriff is not forbidden to levy up
on and sell liquors under such circum-
stances"
The question of the sheriff selling
he liquor to prohibited persons, under
general statutes, such as minors, In
dians. etc, Caldwell states is an in
tricate and difficult one. but he says:
II would advise a sheriff to
refuse to recognize q bid submitted by
any OF the prohibited persons men
toned In the statute,

LEGALITY OF SCHOOL
SYSTEM AT YANkTON
When City Took Up Commits
sion Plan Schools Continued
Special Charter.

Yankton. S. d.. June 1s.-The city
school board Of Yankton was made de-
PENDANT IN a suit brought in the name
Of Theodore Halla. county superlntena
ent OF schools of Yanlkton county, IN
which it is sought to restrain this ooaro
from paying to Theron A. Harmon, SUI
p~erinteEdent of the city schools, n
part of the salary due him at the time
the action vas filed.
The alleged cause of action Is the
statement that Professor Harmon IS
not the possessor of a first grade certl-
ficate of the state. The real reason for
the suit is to determine the legality or
the present city school system.
AT the time Yankton entered into the
class of cities of the state governed I'M
der commission it was decided not to
change the old system of operating the
city schools, which are governed under
special charter. Recently 1t has been
affirmed hat the city schools are not
operating legally, as they had no right
to maintain their old charter, but should
automatically revert to the same man
agement as all other cities Of the state
which are regulated by the commission
form of government.
The hearing vas postponed to allow
the plaintiff to prepare new papers
making Professor Harmon a party to
the suit.
