HOPE HAS MADE GOOD

Hope has "made good" it's Of
fer to the county, and has de-
posted with the County Auditor
a bona6de lease on the City Hall
for five years, with renewal op.
ton up to ten years time. The
Resolution as passed by the City
Council, and an exact copy Of the
lease is printed in booklet which
is being placed in the voters
hands, along with other reasons
why Hope should be selected for
county seat Of our county. All
voters should read this booklet
and be prepared to answer any
question in regard to the removal
issue. Nothing is left Sin the
air. all agreements made are put
in writing and require only the
signature of the proper county Of
ficials to bind Hope to do every
thing promised. Under this con
tract the county can build at the
most favorable time during thu
next ten years. This will enable
us to create sinking fund in ad-
vance and thus avoid paying a
large sum in interest on bonds, in
fact we could put the money out
at interest and collect interest
money instead Of paying it out.
Then we can build when times get
normal and save half, no doubt,
in the cost of a new building. The
Trail county court house cost a
little over $1OO,OOO.OO twelve years
ago, to build it now would cost
$200,00000, and if bonds were is.
sued, even at a low rate of 4 pei
cent for 20 years, the interest
would be $l60,00O.OO. Now if we
accumulate money for from 5 tt
10 years we will avoid the inter
est charge, and suppose building
costs reduce only one third, it viii
make a saving of over $200,0O0.o(
on a building Of the type and siz,
of our neighboring county. Blu
two things should be remembered
in regard to voting next Tuesday
First. The women can vote OF
this quetsion, take your neighbor
to the polls with you, let's no
have a single absentee when tn
voteTis counted on election night.
Second. Vote early in the day
with the women voting there will
be double the usual number o
voters, and there are some six o
seven different ballots to be aote'
on, take no chances on not having
plenty Of time to get all vote
registered.
