Ward Seven Votes Five Mills Road
TAX

laAs
The election held in ward seven
last Monday resulted in a decid-
ed majority in favor of a five
mills tax for five years for build
ing and maintaining public road !.
Thus the entire parish of Grant,
with the exception of ward six,
has for the second time voted a
five mills tax for five years for
the blilding of good roads.
The vote cast in ward seven in
favor favor of the tax was 100
ballots, with a valuation of $50, :
1884. against the tax, 81 votes
with a valuation of $2l, 1900;
giving a clear majority of SO
votes, and $29, 624.54 in valua-
ton. This result speaks in no
uncertain tone as to the belief Of
the ward seven voters in the value
of good roads, and we are pleased
to believe it also represents the
sentiment of Grant parish at
large on this important subject.
