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.

old and tells us that he has been
cultivating corn for sixty years and
seems satisfied and contented with
Lis work.Mr.Overman lives in town ,
