POTOSI EVENTS
General Items of Interest
Gathered by Our Special
Correspondent.

An ordnance for the convenience
and necessary pu chase Of installat-
ion of electric light transportation and
distribution system was published in
the POtOsi News, a newspaper not
printed in the county, nor yet in the
stae, which reads thus BE it Ordain-
ed by the incorporated villgae of P0-
tosi, Grant County Wisconsin, that
whereas etc. Now we are under the
impression that this should read: Be
it ordained by the president and vii
iage board OF trustees of the village
Of POtosi in the County of Grant and
State Of Wisconsin The ordinance,
if this be one, states that the cost of
constructing said transmission line
or lines and distributing system in
side and outside of the village OF Po-
tOsi is to be paid from the proceeds
of bonds issued pursuant to law The
clerk of the village of POtOsi is here
by authorized to give notice of special
election for the purpose of submitting
TO the electors of the village of PO-
tOsi the question of the acquisition or
construction Of such plant equipment
or part thereof in he manner provided
in this ordinance and to be paid for in
the manner herein provided. Now il
the ordinance as published in the
News is intended to be lawful one
it will be we'll for the board of trust
ees to amend the ordinance by stip-
ulating that amount of bonds to be
voted for and in what manner they
are to be paid. The Herald's POtOsi
correspondent would like to see his
old native village push to the front
with electric lighting, but at the same
time wants to see it legally done The
bond issue will probably be carried
if properly submitted, though the
brewery, the bank, Runkel Coons, c.
SchmitZ, Welsh building, two garages
and others now have their own light
ing system.
