THE Times statement that "tax
payers who favored the bonds made
no effort, aside from casting
their votes, to carry the election"
is very misleading. If it knew
anything about the election it
mus have known tina. very near if not
quite One-half of the votes cast for the
bonds in the first and second wards
were voted By Charlie Patterson, Ike
Alderete and the police force and the
men casting them said when question
ed that they knew nor cared nothing
about the issue they were voting on
They had one WACO 1ette out in charge
of Aldererete which broup hit number
of voters who's name was not on the
roll made out by one of their own num-
bar who was paid to make a correct
list. These men it is true are not tax
payers to any great extent but one or
two interested tax payers may have
furnished q little 'medful'' as usual.

Not a few people are roasting the
opera house management for allowing
the auditorium to get so cold Monday
night that it was decidedly uncomfort-
able. and there was more or less dan
ger of catching cold. There was also
complaint because there was no orches-
ira, the accompaniment being entirely
by piano, and on an instrument that
has been through fire and had the
hose turned on it. The company want
ed to use Krapic g. Bach ipstrume mt
which seemed to suit: but it was in
concert and not international pitch, and
so the venerable relic at the opera
house was used. A full orchestra of
twenty men should have been more too
many for Monday uight's performance.
The absence of kids from the gallery
was most agreeable feature of the
