a WORD TO THE CONTRARY
A. It. Jordan Writes From Stark on
County Sanatorium Matter

Mr.. EDITOR: Knowing that your
columns are more remuneratiVe for ad-
vertising and no doubt there are more
calls than you have room for, but as !
like to see both sides of the question
discussed and think you will not consid-
er this an intrusion, will give a few
reasons why we should not build a san
atorium in this county at present.
/. The location has not vet been Civ
en- and this should be settled in the be-
ginning. 2. 1t costs much more to
build with public money than at private
expense. 3 Il seems better to rent
a suitable building and give the affair
test that we might know of the mer-
its or dement's of the proposition. t.
There is reported to be a tri-county
bill before the legislature and his is
not likely to be settled before the time
of the town meeting. And when it
comes TO depending on state aid for
every whim that has popped up before
the people IN the last decade the ques-
ton naturally arises: Where does
state aid come FRONT" In most of the
cities and some villages private hospi-
tails are in operation and the promoters
have invested their means in the equip
ment of the same and are entitled to
due consideration.
DR.. Porter in one of bis articles says
something like this: 'No sooner do we
get one set of bonds paid off than some
one is ready to saddle another on to
the people. +" We have Just had the
Jail bonds to contend with and the pro-
posed building is not virtual necessity
to the county. And l believe this is no
time to saddle on the people any fancy
or dispensible public building PROPOSE
ton There no doubt is a merciful side
TO the question, but some doctors are
not so very merciful when it comes to
fees. There will need to be board of
directors aad an overseer and matron,
also nurses and physician in charge
and probably other matters. II seems
to me very merciful thing to do is to
vote the proposition down and every
property holder in the county to use
his best effort to assist the present leg.
islature in cutting down our present
tax list about seventy FIVE per cent.
Much more might be said but do not
desire to waste your time and patience.
Trusting there are others.
Respectfully, A. 7. JORDAN.

Two mo9ths since the state supreme

permissible for persons having only
first papers to vote. Last Tuesday the
