The establishment Of new school
will not in any way affect state tax
ation-no more money being raised
by taxation than is now raised. be-
cause Of the constitutional four.mill
limit.
The constitutional amendment does
not automatically establish the school
and the first expenditures on the
school cannot be made until the state
legislature sees fit to make an ap-
preparation.
Dickinson is ideally located for the
school, being almost in the geograph-
ical center Of the so-called Missouri
Slope district. 1t is almost equally
distant between the Missouri river
and the Montana state boundary, as
well as equally distant between the
Missouri river on the north, and the
South Dakota state boundary.
