LOCATE THE COURT HOUSE
THE BUSINESS SECTION.

/
Editor Producers News:
AS a taxpayer of Sheridan county
and as a stockholder in your paper,
ask the space in the Open Forum
in your paper to open discussion of an
important subject. This subject is
relative to the location of the new
court house in Plentywood when same
| is constructed. The county seat
fight is practically settled and the tax
payers of this prosperous county will
no doubt soon desire to build a pro-
per building in which to transact the
county business land incidentally we
will desire to populate that building
with efficient and honest servents of
the people,. The location of this
IN proper place is very important.
1t is generally understood that the
building is to be located at the north
end of Main Street about five blocks
from the business section of the town.
10 this proposition | am opposed. I
feel that the Court House is a bust
ness institution and should be located
IN the same manner as any other bus
lPess house in the business section of
town where it would be accessible to
all persons at all times We must get
away from the idea that the Court
House must be placed in miniature
park remote from town and must rea-
lie that modern business efficiency
demands that it be built in business
like manner. This building is not to
be for decorative purposes (although
our officers sometimes are) but must
hrst OF all be useful. If the building
is In the business section of the town
1t can have proper rest rooms for the
ladies and also g room where the far
mers can get together to discuss mat
tiers of lnterestto them when in town.
Ii the building is remote from the
business section it is of practically no
use to the public in this manner. Fur
Their, at the present time I understand
hat the county is paying forty dollars
per month for office rent for the coun-
ty attorney because he feels that he
must have an Office up in the bust
ness section of town. If the court
house is built according to the pre-
sent indications at the north end of
Main Street, the county will continue
to pay out this sum for rent, but if
it is constructed in the business sec
ton of town, the county attorney can
have office rooms in the court house
in the same manner as other officials.
The original cost for location in the
center of town may exceed the cost
at the north end of Main Street but
if we are to build for the future we
must not balk at slightly increased
outlay at the present time. Let US
have discussion of this subject at
this time from the taxpayers who pay
all the bills. Respectfully,
A. Taxpayer.

mail it through the postoffice as a

public opinion is being nodded. Do
you really think that the kind hearted
and long suffering public read your

make you chesty to feel that you are

Gospel Meetings

Evangelist G. p Gaede spoke Sun
day at the Cotton Tabernacle, corner
Seventh and Dodge streets on ''The
Three Messages. In Rev. 14:6-12 we
have brought to view three messages,
all to Immediately precede the second
advent. The first was given from 1870
4, the second followed at once and the
third and last, embracing the two
preceding, is now rapidly swelling
into a loud cry, and will close with
the coming of Jesus on the white
cloud to reap the harvest of the earth.
Jesus himself taught that the harvest
was the end of the world, hence we
may be assured that these proclama-
tons Immediately precede the end of
the world and the coming of the
Lord.
The first Of these messages an
nOunced the hour of Gods judgment
come. This judgment-hour cry was
given to the world with great power
during the last of the 1900 years, or
just prior to 1914. IT'S true that those
who gave it supposed that when that
period ended, and the judgment came
they would see their Lord. But it was
the judgment investigative, and not
executive, that was to begin then, and
this judgment was to be announced
and was thus announced, that man.
kind might be appraised of the Lords
closing work in heaven as we'll as his
closing work on earth. The second
| message announces a condition OF
things that resulted from a long per.
iod of backsliding, eliminating in the
| rejection of the heaven born, judg.
ment hour message.
Then followed the third message
which would go with a loud cry, anl
| continue until probation ends. This
message would explain the beast, thu
F! image, it's work, it's name, and the
number of it's name, and develop 6
people who would be found keeping
all the commandments of God, anl
having the testimony of Jesus Suc1
a message, as above stated, is nov
being given, and such a people are be
ing developed.

AT NORTHWESTERN COLLEGE

A Students Army Training Corps
unit may be established by the gov

received a bit of training, thus giving
them a good preliminary start to en-
ter the S. A. T. G..
About 400 colleges have established
this and it will be great asset to the
local college as a whole to adopt the
same system.
