In another column in this issue we publish the official call for the special election to vote bonds for the purpose of raising money to construct a reservoir for the water system and for the general enlarge ment and improvement of our water system. The amount of bonds call ed fbr is eighteen thousand dollars , "but out of this sum four thousand , four hundred dollars will be de ducted to pay off our old outstand ing water bonds. When'the water bonds were first issued the amount was § 8,400.00. Four thousand of this sum has been paid and the bal ance will be paid out of this new issue of bonds. The old bonds draw seven per cent interest while the new bonds will draw but five per cent. The elec tion is called for August 18th and it is to be hoped that the people of this village will avail themselves of the opportunity to construct a new reservoir in place of the old wooden tank which is no longer fit for use. This new reservoir tank , eight inch main will give us a first class system and before the con tract with Mr. Gilman expires we can build a power of our own and will ttien have the best water sys tem in the state.
