SCHOOL BONDS UNNECESSARY
Editor Observer:
Th date for voting for or against an
$8000 issue of additional school bond is
about at hand, and a a member of the
school board, I wish to present what I
think i a fair statement of th case. .
In th first place, when a sufficient
petition is presented, the board is re
quired, under the law, to submit the pre
position of "bonds or no bonds," to a vote
of th (lector of th district, and make
an order and give notice of the time and
place of election. By this it will be seen
the school board has no discretion in the
matter, and when it is known that not
on director signed the petition, they
should not be held even Indirectly Yespon
sible. In fact, from th Informal talk
among th member when the petition
wa considered, I am justified in saying
that but one member expressed himself
a favorable to an additional increase of
our bonded indebtedness, and I have -since
heard him express himself as not favoring
the bonds. So much for the board.
Th proposed-increase of the bonded in
debtedness of th district at this time, for
th purposes named is unnecessary and
unwise, for the reasons, (a) Under present
contracts, and by th commencement of
next year' school, we will have complet
ed and furnished, with present resources,
four additional school rooms, (all of th
first floor,) in the new brick north of the
railroad track, (b) , This will give u
sufficient room for district school purposes
for the next five years, (c) By that time,
if district resource are properly financed,
th four upper room of this building can
be completed and furnished without any
additional indebtedness - or Increase of
taxation, (d) If this bonded Indebted
ness is contracted, both the debt and in
terest will cost th district, computing
compound Interest, exchange etc., about
$16,000. (e) W would pay interest for
five years to finish property" we would not
ase and need never go in debt for. (f )
Neither the indebtedness, or the money it
would be created for, is necessary to pro
mot the efficiency of the schools, (g)
That no good reason exist for any ad
dition to th bonded indebtedness of the
district (h) That our present bonded in
debtedness is too much and should be re
duced, (i) That it would be wise to make
it possible for th present board to see its
way clear to raise the teaching standard,
if that will do it, by increasing teacher'
salaries.
Th foregoing I a statement of my
personal convictions, and th other mem
ber can "(peak for themselves." 1 hope
th proposition to bond th district will be
voted down. Respectfully submitted,
