Old wells and other holes in the
ground were never intended to be used
to sewer a town; and especially has
this fact been demonstrated in Clif-
ton, since most of them in use have
become useless and overflow, causing
a most unhealthful condition for the
people. A good sewer system cov-
ering the town, should replace these
old sesa pools and better care for the
health of our people.

THE ROAD BOND ISSUE IS
DEFEATED AT WHITNEY
Whitney, Texas, March 28.—A road
bond election held in this precinct last
Saturday was defeated at this box by
a vote of 163 to 58. From reports from
other voting boxes, the issue has been,
defeated by a large majority, which
was on account of a misunderstanding
and failure to build roads in other pre-
cincts in this county. '

The delay in new budding has forced material prices downward
at a tremendous dip. Manufacturers caught with a big stock on
hand, have had to turn them over almost at cost.
