reported the purchase Of $4,000

ALEXANDER KARR TO LECTURE

The lecture to be given by Alex
Karr under the auspices of the
Commercial Club, Tuesday, June
4, is timely, powerful, dramatic.
He is a man of strong convictions,
and with a keen sense Of right and
justice. Whatever he says he be-
lieves to be true. No man can sit
within the sound Of his voice, or
look into his clear, unwavering
eye, and doubt his honesty Of pur
pose. The eloquence Of his impas-
stoned oratory thrills and sways
his audience, and the people rea-
lize that they are under the spell
of a master mind. He touches
the fountain head of things worth
while with his magic wand, and it
yields up the grandest and most
stirring thoughts. Whatever his
theme, his word painting vies in
brilliancy with the most vivid
production Of the artist s brush,
and his scathing denunciation of
the wrongs that are visited upon
the people through selfish greed
is like a stream of lava, consuming
and irresistible, in it's force. 1t
is not too much to say that Alex
Karr is one of the greatest popu-
lar lecturers.
His subject will be "Commun-
ity Cooperation"
Place-Hope.

SOME COUNT SEAT
REMOVAL HISTORY
The Location Argument

In the early days of our county
the county seat was located at
Hope, and was moved to Sher-
brooke. And in those days when
Hope was the end of the railroad,
and when people drove by team to
the county seat to pay taxes and
transact other business, the matter
Of a few miles made a consider
able difference, and the people
were justified in placing the coun-
ty seat in the exact center Of the
county. But even at that had it
not been for the promise of a rail-
road into Sherbrooke, which the
"boomers" for that place prom
ised, the county seat would not
have been removed from Hope, for
even with this promise the re-
moval carried only by few votes,
while the fairness of the argu-
ments for Sherbrooke caused the
people in the south part Of the
county, including some Hope vot-
ers, to vote fory Sherbrooke in
sufficient numbers to carry the
project for them. The proposed
railroad was the deciding factor
in causing the removal from Hope
as there isn't the slightest doubt
that the project would have fail.
ed if the boosters for Sherbrooke
had come to the people and told
them that they did not expect
that railroad would be built fol
Is years, and that even then there
woud be no promisee Of it. There
fore in a certain sense the county
seat was taken from Hope upor
false pretense, and now if we are
to make another removal woulc
it not be fair to return it to the
place from which it was removed
under such circumstances?
No person now living in Hope
took part in the original remova
election in support of Hope, ant
in pioneer days in any countr!
there may be "politics played
by the people on both sides of I
question not in harmony with tn
golden rule. In the heat Of
campaign folks will sometimes al
low their enthusiasm to run ava.
with them, for example, the "pape
railroad" that was to run int
Sherbrooke turned the scale, ye
it is doubtful if ever there wa
reasonable basis for expecting
to be built. If we or anyone els
try to use anything Of prejudic
or feeling arising from any polit
ical or business strife of the pas
it woud be an evidence of tn
weakness of our cause. 1t come
right back to the proposition W
made in last weeks issue of tn
The Hope pioneer. [volume] (Hope, N.D.) 1882-1964, 1918-05-30

Pioneer, and the only thing for
us to consider today is; Which
town offers the best advantages
for county seat purposes? Stay
to the issue, Mr.. Voter, that is all
we ask. Wait until all the evi-
dence is in before you make your
decision.
Now, as to the geographical To-
cation argument. We submit that
it can practically be eliminated,
and really ought to be. When this
is presented to you, please rem
ember that we travel by sectional
lines and not by airline routes,
and make your calculations ac-
cordingly. The matter of location
is a minor matter in these days
of automobiles, telephones, rural
routes, and, when the banks look
after the payment of our taxes
The only time any number of peo.
Iple go to the county seat on coun-
ty business is at session of court
and that is in the summer time
when we travel by automobile and
when we get in the car it is mat.
ter of from 10 to 80 minutes diff.
ference between going to one town
or another, and the average man
is probably drawn on jury duty
once in five years.
Taking Finley and Hope fo,
comparison in the matter of ad
vantage of location, for example
travelling by section lines from
Finley to the extreme farthest
corner of the county is one mile
farther than it Is from Hope tt
their far corner. On the othel
hand starting at the center of tn,
county and travelling by auto i
is about one mile nearer to Finely
than it is from the geographical
center Of the county t,
Hope. One mile either one wa,
or the other isn't worth consider
ling in these days when we trave
by automobile, and in fact goin!
to either town from the create
part of the county means a diff
ference of 10 to 80 minutes il
travel only, from some parts o
: the county fayOring one town an,
in other eases the opposing towr
} so we repeat the location argu
! ment in these days may be elimin
ated, so it resolves itself into
/ question of the advantages whic
: contending towns have to offel
This is the basis upon which we ar
: willing to present our case, it
t purely a business proposition fo
the voter to decide, let's dicide

IN GRACE LUSK CASE

yers Flock to Court.

wAUKESHA. Wis. May 16-The
twelve men composing the jury which
will decide the fate Of Miss Grace
Lusk on the charge of staying Mrs.
Mary Newman Roberts were selected
this morning. Farmers in, their work
ing clothes, college co-eds In gay
summer dresses, prim school teachers
and dignified lawyers fiocked to the
court today.
Hundreds awaited the unfolding Of
the story of the former high school
teachers relations with DR.. David
Roberts which ended in the death Qf
his wife and the vain effort of Miss
Lusk to end her own life eleven
months ago.
Chief interest centered in Miss
Lusk's own version of the tragedy.
The attitude of DR.. Roberts, who has
been called for the defense, also was
the source of speculation.
The prosecution has forecast q de-
mand for the extreme penalty, which
would be life Imprisonment.
The defense has intimated that it
would be satisfied with q verdict Of
acquittal because of insanity. which
would commit Miss Lusk to the state
asylum, where she could begin pro-
ceedings to prove her present sanity
and obtain release.
