The election tocay is very quiet
and there is no definite line on how
it is going. There is considerable
opposition to the bonds in many
places and it would not be surprising
if they were defeated. The principal
objection to them is on the ground
of increasing the bonded indebted
ness of the city and also opposition
from some of the property owners
in the proposed district who hope to
defeat the paving by their stand.
