To Have Waterworks.-At a special
election the proposition to issue
bonds Of the city Of Baldwin to the
amount of $4,000 for the purpose of
establishing a city waterwords plant
carried by vote of 1856 to So. In
three years Baldwin had had three
disastrous fires, any one of which
caused damage enough to pay for a
waterwords system The last of these
was In September, when fire de-
stroyed the postoffice, the Ledger Of
flee and number of other buildings
in the business section. The agita.
ton for waterwords has been
pushed since this fire. A waterworks
system Is all that is needed to make
this an ideal residence town.
