Bond Election Mondav Sept. 10
Nyssa residents »ill have the opportunity Monday, September
10 to make a major improvement in the city’s »ater system if
they appr. ve the proposed bond issue.
The city council has proposed a 3425,000 bond issue to finance
the construction of a 3,000,000 gall * water storage reservoir
on airport tall, one additional »ell, and a boaster pumping
station to pump the »ater to the reservir.
After studying the propos.tioc »e feel that the plan has merit
and think it would be advantageous for the itizens of Nyrssa
to approve the measure.
The added storage would be at benefit in every »ay, providing
a safeguard against any breakd.sns in the pumps, and presiding
a safety factor in fire protection. The »ater pressure in the
lines would be increased, and the system is planned to acc ra
in adate an increase m populate:*.
The bonds would be retired about half by federal revenue
sharing funds »inch the council tas committed to this project,
and the balance of the pa »meats »ould come through a small
increase in water rates and a general tax levy It is quite likely
that future reduction in the fire insurance rating at the city » slid
offset most of the rate increase.
Witt water probably our most precious ccnmodity, it » uld
seem that improvements to the system now are timely and
well-planned. They would certainly be more c sth at a later
date.
The palls are oper. from 6 a m. to 8 p.m. Monday at the
City Library All citizens are urged to vote c this mast impor

Several weeks ago I com
mented that
for a freshman
legislator. Denny Jones rides
tall in the saddle" rd like to
take a lew words to expand
upon that and compliment try
colleague from Ctotano.
When Denny strode into the
Capitol last January, I s-<pase
most people suspected ke »as
from the
East" by looting
at his riding boots and his hat.
Few probably gave him a chance
to make much t an impressx*
on the legislative process be
cause on the outside Denny is a
quiet,
friendy
fellow who
doesn't look like he's out to
change your Bind about this
or that.
The fact is, Denny id per
suade his fellow legislators
there needed tt be some changes
for the people in his district.
U his own eastern Oregx way
Denny coaxed through four agri
culture bills and four livestock
bills.
He gained passage at
Hoose Bail 3054. the livestock
brand .aspect;or. measure »inch
had failed to pass in four pre
vious sessions, and House Bill
201" dedicating brand funds.
Representative Jones also
exercised his own brand of
persuasion
to tun back at
tempts at passing legislation
wtact would have brought unbe
lievable problems for school
districts and taxpayers in his
district.
In my book. Denny's a first
class representative. He kn vs
what his people want, and be
wms fnends and votes. You
cannot ask for more ttas that,
and I am sincerely happy Denny
served in the 57» Legislative
Assembly.
Sincerely.
