COUNTY BOARD
TO ARRANGE FOR
A BOND ISSUE
WILL HOLD EXTRA SESSION
MONDAY MORNING AND SET
DATE FOR HOLDING ELECTION,
NAME INSPECTORS AND At
TEND TO OTHER DETAILS.

The board Of county commissioners
will hold an extra session Monday
morning at 10 o'clock in the office OF
the clerk of the circuit court for the
purpose Of making arrangements for
the holding of the election to decide
whether or not the county Is to issue
bonds to cover the Indebtedness on the
new jail building.
The clerk has been busy for several
days preparing data for this meeting,
and the matter is to be gone into thor
oughly. The date of holding the cleo
tion, the naming of the inspectors and
polling places and the preparation Of
the advertisement calling the election
must all be attended to.
The amount of the bond issue Will
be at least 100000, according to the
figures compiled in the Office Of the
clerk, the figures showing that this
much money is necessary to meet OBJ
LEGATIONS and complete the building.
An examination of the tax books also
reveals the fact that If the bond issue
Is not passed, the county will not be
able to meet its obligations even by
assessing the maximum rate OF 3
mills, so that the passing Of the bond
issue appears to be the only way out
of the dilemma.
Jail warrants to the amount of $780,
1O4.5O will fall due on April 1, 1919,
and all the funds available from the
tax fund, even at mills, will fall
considerably short of covering this
amount.
The county is now paying local
bank s per cent interest on money Dor
rowed to meet the first installment of
the jail warrants which fell due on
April LIST, 1911.
