The election Tuesday changed the
personnel of the board of trustees only
one member. On account of the war
and for other reasons there has been
little or nothing done toward public
improvements in the Town of Dolores
the past year, and it seems that the
voters are anxious to see if those who
served on the board last year would do
anything if given chance. Dolores
needs several things in the way of
public Improvements, but electric
lights, a flour mill and a creamery
would be about right fors, this year.
Let every citizen begin at once to work
for these improvements and not expect
the board of trustees to do it all.
The board of trustees of the Town
of Cortez held special meeting re-
Gently to consider the question of rid
ding the town of loafers. 1t is begin
ming to look as though Dolores would
have the same problem to solve sooner
or later. We believeit is right for
every town to provide something for
the idle to do; and if the Town of
Dolores owned team of horses or
could rent team whenever wanted,
our unemployed could be put to work
graveling the streets. The wages
paid should only be sufficient to provide
board and room, say $l.50 day.
This wage would be no inducement for
man to stay in town only until he
could secure a job elsewhere, and yet
it would enable one out of employment
to make expenses until a better job
could be found.
