IF THE 100000 BOND ISSUE
IS VOTED, WHO WILL GET
THE MONEY?
/. The bond people have con-
tract whereby they get 100000
forthwith in cash for nothing.
They say they drew up the order.
100000 is still good money, and
if it is good for them it would be
good for the tax payers.
2. The bonds are already sold
and are to draw per cent inter-
est. Grundy gets their water
bonds for Ia per cent interest.
They let theirs go at public bic :
ding and saved nearly half. The
interest on the bonds, if voted and
paid according to the election
plan, will amount to $133,800 be-
fore they are paid off Of this
amount the l "a per cent extra
interest will amount to $76,437.
Some one is getting well healed.
g. John j. Hart Company some
years ago got our town council
to sign a contract whereby they
will get, if the bond election goes
through, 6 1-2 per cent on the
total expended for the water sys-
tenn. That will amount to $4,000.
So there goes to grease the
palms of the smart fellows to-
tai of 100000, $76,437.OO and
$13,0000O, or total of $93,437.00.
Then there will be contractors
who know their way around and
the balance of the SO or a $780,
100000 will 60 on down a rat
hole. Will the people of Clint
wood stand for such waste of
their money? Don't we need
town manager before we under
take to spend the money we have
as we'll as the money we don't
have and mortgage our childrens'
property?

smart fellows and nothing for the
advantage of the town of Clint

"In the light of the historical
