LOWER TAXES IN CRISP ouNrY

The tax payer IN Crisp county
is getting by in 1928 with a
smaller bill than that of 1922.
Yes, he is. The rate has not
been increased, but the lands
came in on a ten-dollar valua-
ton, whereas last year they were
valued at twelve and half dol
lars. Lands went in on reduc-
ton in value of TWENTY-FIVE per

TO TALK TO
n. Y.>CHAMBER
OF COMMERCE
Governor Will Address An
nual Banquet on spirit
Of the Northwest"
l55TH ANNIVERSARY
Hopes to Allay Suspicious OF
North Dakota in Eastern
States in Talk
ANNIVERSARY
155TH

Governor Nestos has just accepted
an invitation to deliver an address
at the 155th annual banquet Of the
New York Chamber of Commerce on
November 18th on the "Spirit Of the
Northwest" giving him an oppor-
tunity to present the cause of the
northwest to about a thousand of
the leading business men of the city
of New York.
Governor Nestos> has known for
some time that there still was a
strong prejudice against the state of
North Dakota and the securities Of
ferd by the state and the various
political subdivisions, and that this
prejudice was based largely upon
lack of information or a mis-concep-
tion of the economic and political
conditions in the. state.
The governor is hoping that by ap-
pearing before this very representa-
tive body of the active business men
of that section of the country, that
he may be able to so present the
truth about our state, the progress
in diversification, our great natural
resources, and the character and
spirit Of our people, that this atti.
tude Of prejudice may be changed
and that it may be possible to open
the markets for our bonds and mort
cages in the state Of New York on q
fair interest basis.
Our bond market has improved
materially in the west but the west
lacks the ability to absorb large is
sues Of bonds and New York is the
principal bond market Of the coun.
try and we will not have depen.
dable market for our securities un.
til we win that field.
