' If they permitted the people to t < vote upon the question the towi board would be compelled to pub lish a statement of what they an doing and who gets the thousand ; ! of dollars spent in our city yea : after year. Perhaps such a state- ment would explain to the people who gets more money than he is i entitled to and cause a vigorous campaign for more , economy in public affairs. Yes , the books are open for in- spection if you want to take the slurs generally offered , upon any- one's questioning or inspecting the books or asking to see them. . They should be offered voluntarily for inspection but many people are interested in these matters whc would not care to pose as investi gators. i There are good people who do not like to scrap or quar- rel for the assurance that all is well with our city officials and the treasury but they would like to have a statement of the expendi- tures of the city and what the money buys. ' Will they voluntarily give it to us in the form of a statement for everybody to read- at.their leisure or will they holer the cover down and appear in the role of hiding their actions until an investiga- tion is demanded ? It may appear undignified to them to uncover now upon being asked to do so but the people want to know what they are going to do with the 21,420. How are they going to spend it and how much did they spend last year and what for ? The people want to know. 1 Don't get mad at THE DE Io-1 CRAT for asking these questions I which seem impertinent only to ! the town board who might desig- ! nate us as kickers for wanting to know , but it's a part of our busi- i ness to know. File for Representative. J. F. Carr of Springview has this week filed his nomination with the secretary of state for repre- sentative of the 52nd district. THE . DEMOCRAT : recommended this sev- eral weeks ago and we thought at t that time there would be no candi- date from this county for the place and probably wouldn't have been had Mr. Carr filed a couple of weeks earlier. Thinking that there was no can- . didate to oppose him , Martin Christensen of Valentine has . in the past few weeks made prepara- tions to become a candidate for representative and this week he also has filed his name for that of- fice. fice.There There will , therefore , be two Candidates competing good na- turedly for this nomination and it ' ill be their duty to press their ilairas before the democratic vot- irs for their preference candidate. i Mr. Carr was elected two years igo and is the present incumbent. I He made a good record and we I were willing to see him come up for re-election in the absence of my demand from a Cherry coun- ty ; aspirant which until recently .ppeared obvious. Martin Christenscm is an old timer here and recognized as a eading democrat. He is a painter ) > y trade and occupation and dur- ng the winter months when the ' . - - legislature is in session can wel spare his time in the service of th I state as a law maker , having no work at that time of the year at his trade. ' Either Mr. Carr or Mr. Chris tenseri will make an able repre sentative and it's up to the peopl to select their choice. I. . . . . The CRYSTAL WHITE BEFETG - ERATOR is what you need thi ; summer.
