Election for Bonds.

On Monday, April 8. the electors Of
the City of Williston will be asked to
vote for the issuance OF 81 500 bonds
for tho purpose OF constructing system
of water works and electric light plant.
That our pretty little city needs water
works no sane man will for moment
dispute, and this is an opportune time
for the people to secure that protection
for their property. which they are 80
much in need Of: Not alone al a matter
Of protection to property Is system Of
water works required, but AZ matter
OF economic concern to every property
owner is some sort of fire protection
wanted. The reduced rate Of insurance
will nearly compensate for the annual
tax lew required to meet the interest
on the bonds and for the sinking fund
necessary to meet the principal. But
with the municipal ownership Of the
system, the Graphic predicts revenue
from the users of the water more than
sufficient 10 paw for the plant. thus
rendering taxation upon the owners OF
property, absolutely unnecessary after
the first year. The Graphic sees no
reason why the bonding proposition
should not carry unanimously.

cases and apparatus, haye just been
received.
The program last. Friday afternoon
was greatly enjoyed by pupils and
visitors. Good Rotations and readings.

minute speeches for seasoning, and
good music to add charm to the whole.
went far to prove that the brilliant
careers predicted for high school pupils
by those two prophetic souls are In q
fair way to be realized.
In the line Of biography, the books of
tue American Statesmen Series, recently
added to the library, will undoubtedly
prove interesting to the general public.
