When asked regarding the improvements he could guarantee, Mr. Fisher aaid that he would change the waiting rooms, as was desired, putting the white waiting room in front, that he woufd enlarge these rooms and have 220 more feet of floor space In them, that he wculd see that the plumbing was put in a' sanitary condition, that more'seats w^juld be put in and that he will see that the property in front of the station. bordering on the river, is filled In, the weeds cut down, and the low places filled In with cinders- He claimed thai there was cot room enough for a train shed, such as ^as desired. Mrs. Carter asked him if the company would fix up the vacant lot on the west side of the depot and beautify it in some way. Mr. Fisher answered that he did not believe thai the company would do this, but thai i he would allow the Civic Club to dc whatever they saw fit in the way ol TmprbVfng Tne?appearance of thli property. He stated further that all the promises he had mado would be kept to the letter and that work would be started on the building at soon as possible.

Mayor-elect F. C. Kugler. in an Interview with a representative or the V.?3 Dally New a, today gave his views regarding the bond issue election which: will bo held next Tuesday. "I would fflM to explain." said Mr. Kugler, -"the reason why we ure not ' asking for a larger appropriation at this time. Some of the voters in the city evidently fear that the SI?0.000 of the $150,000 which is to be devoted to the water system- and sewerage..' will not.be sufficient to complete the . work properly." "The tax valuation of tbe city la about two and one half million dol-, lars. Usually, bonding ccnipanieeask as to the taxable valuation of a. town ambtbe sale of the bonds is dopendent, to Bome extent, upon this valuation. Usually It Is mighty hard lo~dispose of bonds if a c-ny~TB"bonded for more than ten or fifteen per cent of the total tax valuation. Washington already has outstanding bonds in the neighborhood of $144.000. and adding to this tire amount of the contemplated issue, it would bring the amount to about $294.0"0. This amount is several thousand dollars above (he ten per cent limit. Consequently, anyone can see ?whjr the Hoard.of Aldermen were a little embarrassed in asking for a larger issue." "We have no fear that the value- * i' i 'n in1 pmpim mjibt' uuutuct'4 lu luil&Pld t'fllUl' Oil ilt't'UUlll -Of Mil' I'M) posed increase in the bonds of tho ftIV. We are?also nulla sure tlmt j even If $130,000 will not roach as far as we hope, that wc will have no- J trouble in tinlshlng the work by an additional smaller issue later." "This city must make a start. To do this we must have tho money'. J9 When we look at the advancement of our sister town, we are satisfied that * (he good people of Washington have too much pride to go backward." "This work will never be done cheaper than It canape done at the '."a present time, and we believe Itabculd be done now before any nioffc pavement Is put down or other Improvements made which would render It more expensive to do the work at a later dateT'"I am aure that the* J present Board of Aldermen will use the money and funds in their handswith the greatest judiaion." rr^ ?? _ j A Word to the Storekeeper.
