Spring Returns
In Black Mills
RAPID CITY, S. D. (A1)—Con
fused by unseasonable warm wea
ther, nature is doing a backward
somersault in the Black Hills
Country.
The aroma of cherry, plum and
apple blossoms fills the air. Lilacs,
spireu and other spring flowers
are blooming.
Even the small culls from Mrs.
Norbert Kekerchove left in her po
tato field are sending up new
shoots.
One rancher reported the spell
of freakish weather has hit his
flock of geese. They’re laying eggs
supposedly not due until next
spring.
ARE YOU
IN FAVOR OF
RESOLUTION 334?
VOTE “YES”
ON OCTOBER 4th
Resolution No. 334 which will be
submitted for ratification in the
forthcoming special election to he
held Oct. 4. 1949, is extremely iiti
portant to every resident of Nome
for scv era I reasons:
1. The Citv MUST raise money
* *
which the present tax laws can
not possibly provide for.
(Resolution No. 331 explains
this need in detail).
2. Consumers Sales Fax is the logi
cal modern way of distributing
the tax obligation. Several cities
in Alaska have found it effective
and fair to all.
3. The proposed tax w ill enable the
City of Nome to carry on the nro
* i •
posed improvements w ithout re
course to a heavy burdensome
property tax.
1. A Consumers’ Sales Tax is the
only form of taxation which can
be levied on ALL earners of a
livelihood in Nome, and not just
on the property owners. In this
way it is the most equitable tax
possible.
