 Engineer w. P. Bullock, of Kansas City. who is interested in the proposed sewer system tor Nogaies, subject to the voting of $68, ,OO0 bonds at the specIal election to be held in Nogales on Wednesday March 2nd, 1910, ar rived in the city Wednesday night, and Thursday evening discussed the bond proposition ins Masonic hall, the meetin being attended by about twen-- ty taxpayers, nearly all of whom will vote Hbonds." It is understood that Mr. Bullock will asl. the Chicago bond buyers, who contracted for the nego- tiable bonds, in the event the "bonds" carry, to cancil the cottract. in order that the bonds may be let to the low est and best bidder. If this Is done, no doubt many taxpayers who other wise would vote against the proposi. tion, will vote "Yes." Certainly No. gales is badly in need of an up to date sewer system. With the contract with the Chicago bond buyers "cut- out" the bonds may carry; other wise,
 we don'5 believe they will.
