Show Court House Bond Election On Monday the lGth day of June will be held a bond election elec-tion in Sanpete County for the purpose of voting for or against the proposed bond issue to bond the county for $70,000., for the purpose of building a new court house at Manti. It is true that a court house would be a good thing for the county, but what inducement does Manti give the people of this end of the county, to encourage en-courage them to vote for the bond at the present time? Manti ought to pay at least 50 per cent of the cost of constructing con-structing a new court house. But in looking over the situation situa-tion we find that Manti is doing nothing in this regard except quietly going about encouraging encourag-ing the North end of the county to be quite about the matter and patting us on the back for not saying much about it. Why don't Manti be loyal to herself, to neighbors, and her county? There are other cities in Sanpete county that would gladly subscribe large sums of money to have the county seat and a new court house built in their city. What has Manti ever offered this end of the ' county in the way of public utilities? If Manti does not coma forth in pride and dignity of the position po-sition she now holds in the county and DO something for herself, neighbors and her county North Sanpete will not take readily to the proposed bond issue. |
