NO MORE BONDS AT PRESENT.

II happens that the election In Ogden
TO decide whether there shall be an Is
sue OF bonds. for the purchase Of water
works by the city IS called of. That
is wise step, in our opinion With
out touching on the controversy be-
tween the municipal authorities and the
chief owners OF the waterworks, we DO
not believe the bonding proposition
would have been successful In addi-
ton to the fact that this is not a good
time 70 negotiate such securities, there
Is a popular prejudice in this State
against increasing bonded indebtedness,
II prevails in Salt Lake city as well as
other places. and It would be very dir
fcult to overcome both here and in og-
den. The water question is vital to the
community, and a full supply for dom
estlc and public uses Is essential to the
general welfare and progress. But ways
and means may be devised II wisdom,
economy and the public interest are the
inspiring motives, without plunging in
TO debts that hamper and perplex, and
become an incubus that forms a con-
finual and irritating burden. ogden City
has acted prudently IN abandoning Il
bonding scheme, and We do not think
the advocates Of additional bonds for
Salt Lake city win say much more
about ii al any rate this side of The
November election.

years immigration and that Of twenty

Is composed largely Of the slay and
