VOTE ON ASYLUM BOND ISSUE
viii Decide Whether or Not $1,000.
600 Shall Be Raised This Way For
State Hospital.

Columbia.-The qualified electors
South Carolina will vote in the gen.
eral election on November 5 on the
question of issuing 100000 in bonds
to relieve the %congested conditions
at the state hospital for the insane.
The joint resolution providing for the
bond issue was passed at the last ses-
sion of the general assembly. The
Joint resolution was written by
Lowndes J. Browning, the chairman
of the ways and means committee of
the house.
"If this plan is adopted" said Mr..
Browning recently. 1.-The new asylum
plant can be built without costing the
taxpayers a penny. If it is not adopt
ed, the 100000 borrowed from the
sinking fund will have to be paid
next January, which will raise the
tax levy one and one-half mills. II
they continue to develop the plant
that will mean an additional one mill
levy. This would raise the tax levy by
two and one-half mills.
IF this bond issue is carried out
as proposed there is no a why
the state tax levy should not be re-
duced at least one-half mill without
Gripping any of our state institutions
or departments of government"
Under the resolution the property
OF the old asylum plant will be placed
as a security for the bond issue. when
the bonds mature, it is the opinion
of Mr.. Browning that the plant can
be disposed of at a figure ample TO
meet the total debt made for the de-
velopment of Estate Park"
A joint resolution submitting to the
qualified electors Of this state the
question of issuing bonds not exceed
ing 81, 900, 900 to carry out plans to
relieve the congested condition of the
state hospital for the insane.

Masonic Lodges Empower Building
Committee to Select Site for New
Masonic Temple in
Keokuk.
AN ANNOUNCEMENT SOON
Expected That Committee VIII An
nounce Final Selection Within
the Next Few
Weeks.

The Keokuk Masonic lodges met
last evening to hear the report of the
building committee and the meeting
was well attended. 1t now seems
probable that within short time the
Masons of this city will be housed in
new building far better than the
one destroyed by fire nearly year
ago.
The report submitted by the build
ing committee last night gave an idea
of the care and consideration that has
been given the selection of a site by
the committee. Many places have
been looked over the choice has now
narrowed down to four or five OF the
best locations in the city.
Some of the sites being considered
are the corner lot at Sixth and Blon-
deau. the corner at Fifth and Concert,
the lot near Tenth street on Main, and
the vacant lot on Blondeau between
Sixth and Seventh. All of these are
choice locations and any of them may
be taken over
When the committee finished their
report, the lodges Immediately took
action to the effect that the selection
of the site should be left in the hands
of the committee, trusting to their
Judgment in securing the best avail
able place to erect the new Masonic
| Temple. 1t is though. that this com.
mittee will make their final report
and announce the purchase of the site
within the next few weeks.
For some time past i. has been
/ rumored that the choice had narrow
