making a pie twelve feet thick and

BONDS FOR SCHOOL PURPOSES

School district number one, EN-
bracing a territory OF about tour by
nine miles, has, through It's board
OF school directors, called an cleo.
ton tor the purpose OF voting for
or against bonds tot the erection
OF additional school houses in the
district. The noun OF bonds
called for in this election is s24,-
600.
The objects and purposes of
these bonds seem to he misundrr-
stood by some OF the citizenship OF
this CITY and school district. For
instance, the editor OF the News
has heard it alleged that the amount
OF these bonds, in case they are
voted, will be assessed against the
city government instead OF against
the school district, which is not so:
it is the school district that is to
vote for or against the bonds, and
the district to be bonded in case the
election is carried. OF course the
school district, as before stated,
does rot only include the city OF
Tucumcari, but an area OF country
embracing about four by nine miles
of territory. Another argument
we have heard is, that should we
vote the s74, 600 OF bonds for school
purposes, that the city would be
precluded from voting bonds for its
own public improvements this like
wise is a misconception, the tact
being that the. issuance OF school
bonds BY this school district has
nothing whatever to do with the
city government, or with It's voting
bonds to whatever amount that can
be voted legally. IL should be un-
derstood, once and forever, tha,
the city government OF Tucutncari
and school district number one are
separate and apart, two different
things, and that bonds voted tor
school purposes IN the dIstrIct WIT
In no way interfere with the city in
whatever public Improvements II
may be necessary to make IN the
future.
The only relation in the matter
OF school bonds that the n has 10
the other is, that both the city and
school district must have addition.
al school facilities in order to meet
the demands ever OF the present,
not to consider the urgent demands
that we ali know are coming in the
immediate future. BY way oI
