RY WITH A BIG MAJORITY ALL
INDICATIONS POINT THAT WAY.

polled today on the bond issue. Up to
the hour of going to press over seven
hundred votes hail been cast and indi-
cations are that the total vote will be j
well in excess of one thousand.

majority and It is thought that the !
' barn bonds" are pretty sure to carry !
also. .

till day and voters have been coming
in steady si reams ever since the open-

At the hour of going to press th"
