ARLING On TO
VOTE ON BOND
ISSUES
Ballot on $50, 900 Fund for
New Roads viii Be Taken
Tomorrow.

CLARENDON, Jan. 22.-The Ar
lington Districts $4,000 bond issue
for roads will be voted on tomor
row.
The opposition to the bonds last
week enlisted many voters on its
side and a close vote is expected
tomorrow.
Those opposing the measure de
clared the bond issue is too much
for a third Of one county to bear
and there is also considerable OBJ
lection to placing this amount OF
money in mems hands who are re
sponsible for the present conditions
of the road.
Another point at issue is the
locating Of the proposed improve
ments. The opposition declares the
improvements will be made, if the
present plan is carried out, with a
view to future speculative real es
tate value rather than to meet
present needs.
Those favoring the measure say
the local officials will have nothing
to do with the road construction
and that it will be done under the
supervision Of the State Highway
Commission. They say the duties
Of local officials will be perfunctory
Col. w. +. Shirley, chairman OF
the State highway commission, ad
dressed a mass meeting Oh the bond
issue last Saturday night. He said
that his commission would take
charge of the construction of the
roads. He also said that no money
would be paid out by the board OF
supervisors of the county until after
the. commission has given its 0. K
Sentiment at the meeting appeared
TO be evenly divided. Many speeches
for and against the issue were made

rented shop on Mill street and later
built the building that is now occupied
by j. H. Donavon. In 1915 he suffered
an accident that made it impossible
for him to work for some time so
he sold the shop but in August of
that year built the place he has oc-
cupied up until the present time. Mr..
Kumm has made no definite plans as
to what he will do but expects to re-
main in Redwood Falls for short
time at least.

Horse Attacks Owner.

Forest E. Croker met with a
painful and rather serious wound
on Wednesday evening of last week
when he was given a vicious bite
on the forearm by horse Geo.
Thompson happened to be present at
the time and had to stun the horse
before he would let go otherwise it is
likely that the animal would have fin
ally thrown Mr.. Croker down and
trampled on him. The horse was a
racing stallion which Mr.. Croker had
in training for the races at the county
fair. He had brought him in from
an evenings work on the track which
Mr.. Croker has improvised on his
rye field, and had unhitched the horse
when he made vicious grab at his
driver and was jerking him about the
yard. George Thompson had gone to
the Croker farm on an errand and
was in the yard at the time when
Croker called for help. Thomson
got club and struck the animal three
times and had to bring him to his
knees before Croker could free him
sell. Mr.. Croker was rushed to the
hospital at Redwood where he was
confined for the last week. He suf.
tered considerable pain at first and
has had fever but was able to re
turn home Tuesday night. The stall.
hon had not been driven for sever
years until just recently and the track
work which Mr.. Croker had been Civ.
ing him seemed to get on his nerves
1t was dark at the time else Mr.
Croker would have been able to bet
| ter guard against viciousness of thai
kind.-Morgan Messenger.
