Petitions, For Bond Election
To Be In Circulation Monday

not give the matter a moments con-
sideration.
The engineer understood. of course.
before ne came 10 Anderson that the
commission would be under no obliga-
.uons to him. The commission explain-
ed to him that an election on bond
question had not yet been held, and
that they we're not certain that q sur
ficient number of freeholders would
sign the petition calling on city coun-
Gil to order the election Until the
petitions had been signed and the
election carried. the commission stat
ed, they would not entertain a pro-
position from any engineer or con-
tractor. In other words. the commits
sion made 1t plain that they would
not act presumptious ABOUT the mat
ter in the least, but would wait a. d
take each step as the time for TAX
ing such steps came. They did not
care to consider employing an engi-
neer until they were sure, that they
could have something for an engineer
to do.
To Namo C0mmittees.o
After the conference with Mr. White
had been epded the COMMISSION took
up the matter of circulating petitions
among the freeholders for their sig
natures. Chairman Horton was auth
orized to name several committees to
take charge OF these petitions and cir
fculate them among the freeholders.
