TO THE VOTERS OF SEWARD
The platform I am running on for
mayor of this town can be covered ?n
a few words.
It is: Less valuation on property
and less mills on the dollar, thereby
cutting the taxes of this town to less
than one half of what they were hist
year!
At the next session of the Territor
ial Legislature there will no doubt be
an equal tax bill passed allowing the
Territory to collect one per cent tax on
all property. It would be a huge joke
for us to pay the Territory a tax bas
ed on a fictitious value of from one
hundred to five hundred dollars more
per lot than they can be sold for.
Many sales made in the town will
bear this statement out.
The acts of the last council are
passed and gone. What we want now
is a new deal and fair treatment to
everybody. 1 have been around this
section a good many years. THIS IS
MY HOME. I have served three
years as councilman and my acts,
while on the council, are well known.
I stand for the citizens, who are a
part of this community, getting what
work there is to be done by the city.
I pay fifty cents per hour for labor
to handle my own business so am
certainly in fuvor of the city paying
the same amount.
I believe in a well organized FIRE
DEPARTMENT WITH PLENTY OF
APPLIANCES TO FIGHT FIRE. IN
THIS I INCLUDE WATER.
By economy I do not mean that the
council should be miserly or small in
I handling the affairs of the town. 1 he
j standard of the town must be kept up.
Improvements should be made where
necessary, school buildings furnished
when wanted, etc., and all this can be
done for one half the money raised by
taxes last year.
Yours respectfully,
JOHN NOON,
CANDIDATE FOR MAYOR.
