ANOTHER BOND ELECTION
ANOTHER BOND ELECTION
People of the County viii be Given
Another Opportunity to Author

Sum of $4,000.

The regular monthly meeting Of
the commissioners Of roads and rev
enues of Glynn county will be neld
at their room in the court house
next Tuesday and a number of i'm
poitbnt matters will come eU IL
disposition.
Among other things will be the
proposed second bond election and
it is likely that another election will
je called. The fact that only a few
voted against the measure in the
last election shows tnat the peo-
pie favor it and also shows that the
cause of it's defeat before is the
large number of people who did not
vote. which of course, counted as
vote against the measure
The commissioners, while of
course they cannot state definitely
what will be done on CTuesday, are
frank to admit that they favor an,
other election. To a News reporter
yesterday one or two of them said
hat the matter would surely come
ur at the meeting, and unlVss all
signs failed that the second election
would be called.
