SOLONS OUT
WR CIRCULAR
LETTER
URGING ALL VOTERS OF THE
COUNTY TO VOTE FOR BONDS
AT ELECTION TO BE HELD
THIS WEEK.

The following circular letter was
yesterday mailed to every voter Of
the county
10 the Voters Of Glynn County:
This is to inform you that an elec-
tion has been called by the commits
sioners of roads and revenue to be
held on next Wednesday, the 19th,
instant. 10 determine the question Of
issuing bonds in the sum of $4,000.
of this amount $4,000 is to be used
in finishing and furnishing the court
house now in course of construction,
and $4,000 Of which is to be used in
the construction and furnishing Of a
county Jail
The commissioners have ordered
this election because it was evident
from the last election that a large
majority were in favor Of issuing the
bonds as it lacked about 70 votes Of
carrying, although a two-thirds ma
iority of all the registered voters is
necessary to authorize The issue. The
commissioners are firmly Of the
opinion that jt is much better for the
Taxpayers and for the public welfare
generally, to provide the necessary
funds for these purposes by this
bond issue rather than by special
tax leyies. The bonds will be re-
payable at the rate of ten thousand
dollars a year, beginning January l,
1911. until January 1, 1917, when the
last fifteen thousand dollars will be
paid We are satisfied that these
bonds can be paid without increas-
ing the. present tax rate.
1t is necessary for a two-thirds
affirmative vote to carry this cleo
ton. so that, all voters who are in
favor of issuing the bonds should
cast their votes
The polls win be open at all The
election precincts in the county. All
persons to whom these circulars are
addressed are qualified TO vote at the
election on The 18Th.
Very respectfully,

and each member Of the association
is earnestly urged to lay aside all
other business and attend this meet
ing in person.
1t is apparent that those influences
which arbitrarily manipulate the sa-
vannah market have outlined and
are making effective a plan to take
over, during the producing season,
your spirits at a price ranging from
10 cents TO 25 cents a gallon less
than its actual value and the price
which viii be fixed for the Consumer
during. the winter Of 1907-08. This
situation makes it imperative, look.
ing to the interests not only of the
producer, but Of the entire industry.
that proper steps should be takers to
permanently relieve conditions in
the selling end of the industry and
not only prevent Illegal and oppres-
sive manipulatons Of the market but
establish and maintain a stable mar
ket at prices which will not be SO
low during the producing season as
to opprcss the producer nor so high
during the consuming season as to
oppress the consumer and curtail the
demand and use for naval stores.
1t has always been, and is now,
within the power Of the producers to
protect themselves against condi-
tions which now prevail ana which
will continue to exist when the mar.
Het is denominatad and fixed abso.
Htely from day to day, by'inauences
which are unfriendly both to con
sumer and producer alike.
1t is with a view to formulating
and putting into effect proper plans

much desired that you should be
