had their eyes suddenly opened to the
seductive danger of bonds as machinery
of public improvement. They End that
propositions already introduced into the
present Legislature propose the issuance,
by the city and county. Of nearly seven
million dollars worth of bonds, and be-
hind these are still other projects to raise
the total higher. Should these be the
last city bonds issued, they would make
he city debt about twelve millions, aud,
by the time this might be liqudated over
$50, 900, 900 would be paid 10 principal
and interest. Tho Bulletin and Mayor
Otis call halt. Let US, they say. make
