in favor of the bonds. The entire city
gave the proposition majority of

thirds for the whole district
It was apparent early in the day
that the bonds would win by safe
majority and as soon as the returns
We're received from the four boxes in
WaXahachie there was no need for
doubling the result in the district.
TO the Retail Merchants Associa-
tion of Waxahachie belongs a great
deai u the credit for the success OF
the proposition. AS soon as the cam
paign for good roads had been
launched a committee from the asso-
citation took charge of all the details
of forming an organization fox the
purpose OF conducting a systematic
fight for the authorization of the
bonds. The campaign was conducted
along educational lines and no ef-
fort was made to secure votes by
appealing to the preiudices of the
people, Cold facts and figures and
logical argument We're presented
and these had the desired effect.
The commissioners court will
meet In a few days to canvass the
Iretruns and declare the result.
