' Should Be Richest County
I Logan County ohould be the most
prosperous county in the State. Its
coal and timber land ucreugee, and
it: coal and stone deposits. ere among
the ingest of any county in the State,
and the most vuluuble. It: possible
sources of revenue ere among the
ingest of any county in the Stute.
Wanton wute and diversion of its
public funds, and the throttling of
its functions of government by u sin
ister dictatorship, hue reduced it to
a condition of etugnution and terror
mn.
The upsnditure of my for road
building furnishes the best illustrh
tion of the waste of public funds. In
1920 the county spent $228,000 for
rosd building. In 1921 is spent $236,-
000 for this purpose. "In 1922 the sum
was $290,000. In 1923 it was $3 ,-
snd in 1924 it is $894,000.

VOn top of these some the count‘
hes spent 81,600,000 derived from the
sele of reed bonds. lt hes received
during this period $600,000 from the
roed funds of the Federsl end Stste
governments. Prison labor in the
county during the five yeers emounts
to $300,000.
At e cost of 828,000 s mile, this
sum would hue psid for the building
of over 125 miles of roeds. Only one
herd surfsee roed hes been built in
the county with this sum. It is from
Lozsn to Holden, s distenee of five
miles, end following the course of

One citilen of Lognn recites this

When he peid these taxes later, with
the additional costs and penalties, the
sum wan $67. In 1923 his taxes on

prospective public building or con—
struction work. Privste contrscts
are msde, with no provision for the
supervision of the work by a repre
ntstive of the county. The contrac
ususlly do the work to suit them
selves, and the county in its unpro
tected condition must accept it.
A levy of $64,000 was made upon
the taxpayers of the county in con
nection with the sttcmpted invasion
by coal miners of adjoining fields in
1981. After this uprising the funds
of the countywere used to purchase
$260,000 of arms and ammunition,
which was stored in a local armory
that had been built with funds pro
vided by the coal interests. In this
equipment are 18 tripod machine guns.
The county paid 310 from its treas
ury for each men brought in from
another county to assist in repelling
this invssion. ‘
_GIII_I Turning! on felling Plus
On election day this year some of
then machine guns were removed
from the armory to other places in
the county, and from concealed apote,
Itrained on the polling places. This
is merted to be true at Omar, and
other places in that vicinity.
Goal lande in the county are valued
at from 8100 to SSOO an’ecre. Some
of these lands are capitalized to this
maximum. In the asses-ment of
taxee. however, a valuetion of from
SBO to S4O an acre are placed upon
them. The coal operatore contribute
a private subsidy of $135,000 a year
to Chafln for the payment of the eal~
arias of his deputy sheriffs.
