CITIZENS PETITION COUNCIL
ASK THAT BOND ELECTION BE
DEFERRED FOR THE PRESENT
Say Existing Contracts Should Be
Completed Before Another Big
Debt Is Incurred. Many
Signatures Obtained.


Mon lay there was put in circulation
for signatures a petition to the city
council asking that body to rescind it's
action calling an election on bonds
for a sewerage system. Mr.. w. H.
Davis, who had it in charge, says
nearly every one to whom it was
presented readily signed it,
The petitioners declare that they
wOnld like to have sewers, but would
also like to know that the city sable
to bear the increased burden before it
is thrust upon us. They further say:
'Let us not issue more bonds until
the contract with the city for water
works has been completed, the extent
OF the outlay it will require is known,
and we are able to take n complete
inventory of assets and see just where
we stand"
The petition will be presented to the
council at their meeting tonight tues

BOND ELECTION ORDERED
CITIZENS WILL VOTE ON SEWER
QUESTION APRIL IL.

The Proposed Bond Issue is for Thirty
Thousand Dollars. All Voters Must
Register. Books Now open.
Official notice of an election to de-
termine whether the city shall issue
bonds for a sewerage system is print
ed elsewhere in The News.
The election is called for April 18th,
and the amount of bonds it is propos-
ed to sell is $50, 900, in denominations
of 81, 900 each, the first bond maturing
November l, 1907, and the last one
November l, 1886.
To vote in this election it will be
necessary to register, and the books
are now open for that purpose. 1t
will take two-thirds of the registered
voters to carry the bonds, and of
course the number required cannot be
known until the books close ten days
before the election.
The result of the election at this
time is in considerable doubt. There
are ardent champions of system OF
sewers for the city, and on the other
hand there are quite number of bus
mess men who would ordinarily be
favorable TO sewers, but who do not
think it advisable to increase the city s
bonded Indebtedness so soon after the
recent big issue for the purp ose
of buying and charging the water
works system.
The indications are that it will be
the most interesting bond election
Dawson has ever had.
