TWO ELECTIONS ID BE HELD IN
 THE SAME DAY
Propositions of Sale ol. Lease of Central School Property to Be Voted On at the Double Election June 30.

The taxpayers of Phoenix will have traI school block to the city and coun- ty. or the lease of the same, put up to them for decision at a double election which win be held on June 90. The notices were posted yesterday and as the law provides that taxpayers must have fifteen days notice of an election the time contemplated by the statute will have been duly considered when the election is held. There will be two ballot boxes, two sets of officials and two elections all in one.
 A special meeting of the board of trustees. held since the meeting of the taxpayers in the City Hall on Wednes- day. decided after much deliberation that it is necessary for two elections to be held in order that each proposi- ton may be legally handled and that there may be no chance of one propo- sition nullifyins the other.
 Therefore the two elections will be held at the same time and place. with two ballot boxes, and two sets of off ciaIs and two ballots to be voted upon. The one ballot will have upon it the proposition. shall the trustees Of school district number sell the Cent ral school block to the city of Phoenix and county of Maricopa2" Vote 'Nes or No The other election will have for it's consideration the proposition, shall the trustees of school district number lease the Central school bIock?" Vote yes or no
 This action was taken in accordance with the request of the taxpayers in mass meeting assembled last Wednes- day. where after a debate of three hours. it was decided to request the trustees to put the two propositions LID to the people At that time there were a number of spirited talks in faV- or of the purchase of the square jointly bv the city and county for the purpose of erecting thereon a joint city and county court house as a part of the proposed center of public buildings that exists almost already in that the postoffice. the Y NJ. C. A. and the Water Users buildings are already erected It has been advanced that the spot is an ideal one for centering the civic activities of the city.
 There were others at the meeting who are in favor of leasing the prop crtv on long time leases in order to provide a permanent income for the schools The debate continued until il was almost impossible for the two sides to agree on any other proposi- ton than that of putting it up to the people. which was the final action

Make him eat as well as sleep in

spend any TIM whatever in female
company. Keep your eyes on him

Willie spoke his mind deliberately.
