CITY WILL BE
SPEGIAL LLECI1
the charter of the town of Spring
field. This will provide for a special
city election at the coming primaries
on May 21 at which time the people
will vote on the proposed amendment.
This amendment is for the purpose of
setting the regular city election dates
at the same time aa the state and
county elections. This is done to
make the city charter conform with
I the state laws which were passed in

held at the same time as state elec
tions. An advantage for this system will
be that the same set of election
Judges and clerks will be -used for
tbe city elections as for the state and
elected for two years and two for
four years and the city recorder and
treasurer for two' years and thg
mayor for four years. As no candi-
of Surmyside addition. This amount
is estimated at approximately $350l
and the ttty attorcvy. has betn ln
