The city meeting to be held at the
Barre opera house at 1880 o'clock to-
night is for the purpose OF authoriz-
ing the city government to issue tenn
porary notes in anticipation of bonds
for the South Main str>~t bridge and
for refunding purposes, authority Tor
issuing these bonds having already
been given by the citizens in previous
meetings but not having been taken
advantage of because of the unsatis-
factory condition Of the bond market
at the present time. In other words,
when the city government took up the
matter of issuing bonds for the above
mentioned purpose it was found that
a reasonably low rate of interest could
not be secured because of the high
money market. the bonds not being
saleable except at discount which
would make the interest rate around
six per cent Deeming it unwise to is
sue such bonds at the present time,
the city government proposes TO make
temporary loans in anticipation OF
bond issue: and, therefore, the city
meeting was called for tonight in or
der to get authority for issuing the
citys notes.
