tie argument that comes up for final settlement next Saturdays or
rather intention until recently 1t looks to
like nice discussion keep out Of But the tactics Of certain people
who working ndusrousy for the bonds have been adapted to
course that obges us to sit up and take notice whether we would
nduly anxious about
this unfortunate that could not have been met
with instead of snuaton and For instance one
who opposes the councils bond plan charged with mayomty
aspirations and the desire to do nothing more than further these am
obviously foolish the face Of The present administration has
of the city feel keeny and resent it, any charges against
entirely superuous aside that such
questions be voted and light Just exactly what the people
of Twin Falls have been waiting for The council prefers to keep
them in the dark evidently

city departments and work for the unemployed during the

just individual opposition to the bonds has sought to be enc

Of substituting darkness for light!
The situation appears sum up very briefly
We are in favor of extending the paving this city
y practical at early date practical Shohon
one limit of the city another ought to be paved the with
upon which, we believe pavement is justified
But Is not practical at the present time
which the council can blame but itself
Every water main in the city will have be replaced
ready rotten and become every Prospecting through
mains day No pavement should laid any
where Twin Falls until system upon
and constructed
Mayor Sweeey promised running that this woud
either be actually accomplished under driving
eighteen months from the indeed said he
would resign II this kept recall that we
published photoengavue of the promise
only few weeks
When paving placed Falls it should be put down
down first
Once this is done THE TIMES found supporting every
practical paving proposition
Inc question OF whether there parking in the center
the proposed Shoshone paving principal
question: and not we believe of Importance itself The streets
belong to the people Of the entire people ono a
particular street the sentiment of the the citv popua
ton should determine such details
Our pure water council has given promised oppo
tuy TO vote bond for system that will he
credit to this progressive city urging TO the next hest
W Tor city hall and suite of offices water works
department 1t might be argued and with than umor
mat with the present council office
nan OF $9OOOOOO system will have roed away
and without any system will have water works
department al all.
We heard some support city proposition
mat the city would be saved considerable rent
we have figured out that would saving 10
maintain the janitOr's staff in the newt building
But with us, nothing is too good for Twin Falls
Under ordinary circumstances very reluctant TO op
improvement necessity most remote
TIE TIMES Will always be willing to bear its portion
creased taxation
We believe however that the system comes logically
before anything else and begins other prop
ostion will have be turned down in order impress admins
tratlon that the people mean business
