BOND ISSUE VOTED DOWN,
BY an Almost Unanimous Vote No.
6 Township Refuses to Vote
Bonds.

In the election which was held in
No. township on Thursday on the
proposition to vote an issue of bonds
for 100000, payable in thirty years
the proceeds to be used in the per-
manent macadamazing of certain
roads in the township, in all about
u miles, resulted in defeat of the
bond issue by vote of 81 to ).
The people seemed very much OPP
posed to the proposition to issue
bonds, though the sentiment seems
to be very strongly in favor of an
annual tax provided the tax is put
upon the entire county for the per-
mancnt Improvement Of public roads.
By tax upon the entire county the
weaker and smaller townships will
share alike with the moro wealthy
townships and those in which there
are corporations and will also get
the benefit of the increased valua-
lions in these communities.
While the bond issue has been de-
fcatrd the agitation has probably re-
suited in creating sentiment in fa-
vor Of taxation for road making.
One OF the reasons for opposing bonds
Is that it is possible the money
might not be property expended and
