that when parties buy bill of US

value of their purchases compared
with the amount of money invested

The Financial Statement of the
Borough Of Butler, published in another
column, shows that the bonded indebted
ness of the town Is $85.50O. which with
the amount yet due the paving and sew
ering contractors, outstanding warrants,
and some other small sums, makes a total
Indebtedness of s122. 2.9l9.71. To offset this,
there is yet due the borough, by reason of
unpaid assessments for paving and sewer
ing. uncollected taxes etc, the snm of
90, 585 SO, leaving net indebtedness of
$70, 333 IS. OF the bonded Indebtedness
5000 will fall due each year for the next
four years, and after that $4,000, year
for some years. The statement is of in
terest to every taxpayer in the town.
1t is calculated that not more than $50
votes can be polled, under the new election
law, at any one polling place, during the
eleven hours the polls are open; and in
view Of this fact some of our exchanges
are urging the necessity OF prompt action
- to the division of election precincts con-
tanning more than that number of voters
In order to divide an election precinct ap-
plicstion must be made to Court and CON-
missioners be appointed to make the
division. and it requires considerable time
to conform to all the requirements of the
law governing the matter. In order to
change the place of holding the election in
any district, under existing law, the ques-
tion must be submitted to the decision of
the qualified voters at special election to
be held for that purpose These matters
should receive the early attention of the
local authorities in each election district
and the necessary legal papers be prepared
for presentation to the Court.
