The proposition to bond the Alli
ance school district Tor $15,000 for
rf pairs and an addition to the Cen
tral and Emerson buildings, as men
tioned in The Herald a few weeks
ago, will be voted upon at the gener
al election, the seventh of next
month. Considerable opposition to
these bonds Is being developed, and
while there is great need of ntore
room and better facilities. It seems
somewhat doubt rul now whether the
bonds will be carried. On the east
side objection is made to this propos
ition on account or a school building
not being In that part of the city. It
Is claimed that people residing on
the east side have been given to
understand that when additional
bonds were voted they would be
given a schoql building. As this Is
not provided for In the question as
submitted, many of them will vote
against the proposition.
