DON'T FORGET
SOME BRASS TACKS REASONS
WHY VOTERS SHOULD CARRY
MUNICIPAL BONDS.

When you go to vote on municipal
bonds tomorrow. don't forget:
That we are isolated fifty-two
miles, by section lines, from the city
of Sioux Falls.
That by signing a contract with
the Northern States Power Co. we
shall have to depend on a single con-
Quoting lineN for our electric service.
That every city depending on a
single line must contend with inter
rupted service.
That the contract offered up by the
Northern States Power company pro-
vides no penalty, whatsoever for any
interruption of their service Of less
than three days. duration.
That its said contract does not
penalize the copany, in any manner
whatsoever, FOR failure, at any time,
to furnish sufficient current for all
the needs of the city and its indus
tries. When the demand on the
Sioux Falls plant becomes very great,
as often happens in fall and winter,
which city will be supplied first,
Sioux Falls or Madison?
That all the cities in Minnesota
but one, reported by the investiga-
ton committee, kept up their plants
with practically full working forces
as emergency plants, and this in spite
of the fact that all OF those cities
can be served from three different
points.
That whether we sign up with the
Northern States Power company or

Is MADISON CHEAP?

Tomorrow, May Is, the voters OF
Madison, men and women, will vote
on the proposition: Shall the city of
Madison issue bonds in the sum of
100000 for the installation of a
municipality owned electric lighting
and power plant? 1t is the sincere
hope and desire OF The Daily Leader
that the proposition shall be carried
In the affirmative by as nearly unan-
imous vote as possible. Madison is
a mans size town and is entitled to
just this sort OF endorsement by its
citizens.

Of Madison's greatest enterprises and

Now. do you, dear Voter, desire to
place your neck in this yoke and SUBJ

corporation?
The principal argument In its favor
put up by this foreign corporation is

Madison ready to Surrender their

The state of South Dakota does not

In Her Mothers Home, Says 7hi. Georgia Lady, Regarding Black Draught. Relief From Hcad-

When any of us, child ren complained of headache, usually caused by constipation, she gave us a dose of Black -Draught, which would rectify the trouble. Often in the Spring, we would have malaria and chills, or troubles of this kind, we would take lFDraught pretty reg ular until the. Ever acted well, and we would soonL be up and around again. We would not be without 1t, for 1t certainly has saved us lots of doctor bills. Just dose of Black Draught when not so well saves a lot of Elays in bfd."

Neptune rules kindly today, ac-
cording to astrolOgy. The Sun is
adverse.
The stars promise the clearing of
clouds that obscure human percep-
tion and the apprehension of rlghU

world upheaval.
Ability to see world relations in
their larger aspects is supposed to
be aided by the planetary direction.
The beginning OF a period when
selfish claims disappear is forecast.
This should be a fortunate day for
the beginning OF journeys.
Although storms are foretold,
which will cause trouble to ship
ping. a voyage begun under this
sway should be lucky.
There is a sign this day warning
those who write to be careful what
they say in Letters or public docu-
