this city this afernoon 10 consIder the ques-
ton or voting county bonls unler the new
law for the purpose of securing seed and
feed. Al least 250 were In attendance amid
time discussion was quite amiimated . They
severely crlUclsed the provisions In the law
which provide for time flrlCIS paying for
the SIEd al time rate or 10 per conI within
ono year and thc bonds running for five 10
tell years al 7 per cenl interest. This ' was
regarded as a very Qxpenslve expcrlment.
The majority at those present were not such
ns tile law conlcmlliales benenUng , as they
are able to Ilrchase their own seed. They
were generally ot time opinion Ihll interest
on a $50.000 hand for five years would cost
the county more than It would lose by letting
the ground lie idle for the season , Time law
would have been mnch more acceplable tu
time majorIty In tile county had I been passel
as first Inlrolucld , by which time seed and
feed purcimased would have been 1 len on
the farm sown. _
The convention decided to not petition reran
an election 10 vote bonds but to leave the
question with time masses to take such acton
as Ihey might deem besl. The general opin-
Ion Is Ihat an election wilt be called nt any
rate , notwllhstanllng the fact that time law
Is not satIsfactory. I Is wiry doubtful . that
the bonds 11 carry. '
