The people have spoken—albeit, not very many of them, in the Brookings Sewer Bond election last week. Again, it is hard to see why the voting was so light, when the issue was so hot. Everyone was talking about the sewer election, and everyone was steamed up about it, hut yet a good deal less than half of the registered voters turned out to cast their ballot. ,rn , , those that didn t vote, we have to assume were >n favor of the bond issue, and the way the city gov- eminent is handling their affairs. We assume that be- cause they didn t bother to lodge a protest vote.
