Attention is culled to section . hleh j
provide that the place elu i li si. all be'

Special attention is called to section
; 5 of the act, which makes it ohliiMlorv
upon th" county conn to provide f .r
; county Imildins ami lor the removal ol
the records and ether prnerty U-I.mi;-j
inar to the county lo tin- town i bo-en.
! Tins IKirtion of the act appeals with
juptcial emphasis to the taxpayers,
i who would have to pay the enormous
expense of building il lie court ho se
within the time limited for removal, or
j if the same cannot lie jomph-tcd wttlitu
J such time, the added expense of lessing
I buildii gs, transferring recoul and otii
I er property belonging to the county.
anil providing a temporary vault for the
! Safe-keeping of the wiiuablc record-,
book, papers and other property oi tin
county. This latter exeri"'e alone
would doubtless cost Ihe county sen-nil
thousand dollars. (If course, it wilt be
observed under the provisions of the act,
none oj these items of expense will he
neceasaiy, if St. Helens receives a ma
jority oj the votes i-a-t, us in that case
no removal is necessary, u other words,
if the majority of the voters say by their'
ballot that they do not desire I. ri mor
al of the county scat liom Si. Helen,:
then no removal will be made, au l con-'
si qilently none of tiie provisions of this
act will then apply relative to building
anewconrthoi.se, removal of record,'
leasing of -temporary building, erection
of temporary Vaults anil oilier liecessa-'
ry costs in case of removal.
The matter, then, resolves itself into
this question, and each voter mii-i de- :
