Bond Issue for Sewers

On May the qualified voters of this
city are to vote yes or no upon pro-
posed issue of 100000 of bonds for
storm and sanitary sewer purposes.
The month of flowers is an important
political month, but it will bring TO the
people of this city no more important
question than the proposed bond issue.
Growth sanitation, road improvements,
payements and numerous other munich
pal matters are delayed by the want of
storm and sanitary sewers. The city
has ontgrown its sewers, and extern
sions are needed in many directions.
The voters of this city should begin
to study the subject at once. They
should make inquiries of those who
have studied it. Every man who de-
sires to see the city put in a position
TO annex almost the entire valley will
vote for the bond issue Money will
not be wasted in making the city
wholesome and healthful. The matter
should be investigated and discussed
TO the end that every voter will be pre-
pared in May to act intelligently at the
polls. The pressing Importance of the
subject should appeal to every citizen,
and every good citizen assuredly will
endeavor to understand the subject In
all its bearings.
