WARREN, BONN. ik5'.-...iV/ ')yvii inmsBusumunn As there has been a petition for a new:jCounty circulated and signed up, and as the Governor has issued his proclamation tfiat the question of dividing Marshall County and creating a new county to be named Liberty, with the Village of Holt as its County Seat, and the same be submitted to the voters for their approval or rejection, therefore, this brief statement is hejerjy submitted to the voters for their consideration before the day of ejection November 2,1920. Reasons why you should vote for County Division TAXES. There seems to be a general opinion that the taxes will be higher, but this need not be true. The taxes will not be increased because*of a division. Proof of this can be had in the case of other large counties which have been divided. A county that is as large as the present County of Marshall' can- not be run as economically as two counties of a. more convenient size. Even if Marshall County is divided each of the new counties will have an area larger than that of most counties in the state. The counties could be more easily and satisfactorily run as two counties than as one, and it would be a great convenience for the people in the east half, and a great saving of traveling expenses to and from the county seat. ROADS AND BRIDGES. If the county is divided it means more road and bridge money from the state. The west end would get the same amount of road and bridge money as the whole county is now receiving, which is in the neighborhood, of $19,000.00. The proposed new county of Liberty would receive a larger amount based on a $4,000,000.00 valuation. Refer to Sec. 2503 General Laws, 1913. By taking a glance at a Minnesota road map it can pe easily seen that more and better roads can be procured in a smaller county. LOCATION. In regard to the location of the County Seat at Holt. All fair minded voters will conceed that the County Seat should be located as near to the center of the population and valuation as possible, and that makes Holt the logical place at this time, as the southern half of the proposed new county has a much higher valuation than the north half and the south half has more than 2 to 1 votes against the north half. Holt is located 8 miles north of the Pennington county line and Middle River 7 miles south of the Roseau ccfUnty line on the same railroad and have the same railroad service, but Holt has a great advantage as to public roads, as all roads seem to lead to Holt. COURTHOUSE. The business men of Holt have guaranteed in writing to furnish a suitable building at an annual rental of $60.00 for the next six years. After the expiration of this period the county may have the privilege of renting or buying said building. This building is located in the Village of Holt and is known as the American Legion Hall. It covers a ground space 50 feet by 60 feet. The new county will receive credit for its proportionate share in the buildings and funds of the old county and is also liable for its share of the debts. The present county is too large and inconvenient for a large majority of the people in the east half. It is not fair to compel the people of the east part to take a three day journey to get to the county seat and back. Inas- much as the majority of the east end people desire to be set off from the old county and to establish a new county, they should be given the opportunity. This can be done by the support of the west end voting "yes" on the ballot. m-tt-oj rfpbere seems to^ be no plausible reason why the people of the west end should not vote for division as it will leave them with a valuation of over $10,000,000.00, and leave them with the choicest part of the county. r% ^x J PUBLICITY COMMITTEE FOR THE NEW COUNTY OF LIBERTY, Tr HOLT, MINN. ft v.
