OUR NAUGHTY NEIGHBOURS
That was a little mean of cur good
neighbors at Waterloo, to attempt
the-"now you see IL and now you
dent e 1t" on Lsporte City, by
fighting against the sale of the
swamp lands, on election day, while
they supposed the Laporte people
were working earnestly for the
Bridge Appropriation. We speak
more particularly of the East side
but even West Waterloo showed the
"cloven foot" Cedar Falls, we az.
knowledge did not do much but she
was, at least, consistent. The re-
suit showed that Waterloo people are
like IA Ward" They are willing
to sacrifice their "wives relatives in
the other part of the county but
Waterloo interests must be built up.
We favored the the bridge appro-
priation and sale of the Swamp
Lands, but we are glad now that
both propositions were defeated
Waterloo had little sympathy before
the election but she has less now
They need q bridge but it will be q
long time before the people of the
county will ever vote to give them
an iron one and we fear if left to the
voters now to decide a ferry would be
improvised before even a wooden
bridge was provided for.
