RALEIGH, N. C, MONDAY
BONDS CARRIED
Heavy Vote For Both Bond
Issues
STREET IMPROVEMENTS
The Street Bouds Slightly Led the
School Bonds But Few Voted
Against Either.
The people of Raleigh today by an
overwhelming majority approved the
issuance of .fltlll.lHiil in bonds for street
improvements. F.y almost as derisive
a vote the electors of Kaleigli township
j have authorized llie issuance of ,'ill.lNNI
I lor school purposes.
.More iiiicrcs-L as inaitiiesieii in iiic
bond eleolioii today than was shown in
the election over issuing !f50,IMMI fur
slrenl improveiiH'ii'ts two years ago. In
fact the registration was iniuili heavier
approximateing I.IIIMI on llie street
bonds in the city. The voting iM'gan
early and progressed rather rapidly.
Very few votes were east against the
bonds so that at two o'clock the friends
of llie bonds had the satisfaction of
knowing that tin- victory was won. In
deed' .sc'ldoni have the people lK'en so
practically unanimous on n. question. As
an ex-ample in the first ward ait eleven
o'clock 1(17 ballots had licen cast. Only
." votes were against the street bonds
ami cither refrained from voting or voted
against them w hile .1 had voted1 against
sc hool IriimI's.
;i;0TII OF SEXTIMEXT.
The change in public sentiment In this
ci'ly regarding bonds is more than re
markable. In 1N!r the question of Issuing bonds
for street improvements in Raleigh was
defeated by popular vote.
In IS! 15 the matter was again, discuss
ed and the question of submitting it to
a vole decided on but il. was withdrawn
as the opiHisiliion was so strung rh ait it
would have been defeated.
In 1SSI7, however. In- question! of is
suing $50,000 in bonds for street work
was submitted lo the people and voted
on under a new registration and carried
by a small majority of the registered
Vole,
In l.KiKI the issue is again submitted
bin this lime for .IIMI.IMH) Instead or
.f."i(i,iioo and behold Hie regist ration is
equal lo llir registration in .a county
election and the voice of the people is
practically uiiciiiilmolis in favor of the
ben i is.
This is imhvd a llatering endorsenipnt
of the work which Chairman Drewry
has done for ltuloigh and is enough to
make him feel proud. Through his la
bors tihis remarkable revolution in pub
lic sentiment, has taken 'place.
th io issi'axci:.
The finance I'omni'iitis', composed of
Messrs. II. W. Miller, W. K. Jones and
l.yn Wilder, will arrange for the dispo
sition of the street bonds. It. is practi
cally settled that the entire .flOO.UOII will
be issued at once and. disposed of in a
lump immediately. This will cause
them to bring n betitcr price and be of
advantage to the city. They will Im' .10
year 5 per cent, b Is. ruder the law
ainlhorizing the issuance not more than
iji.'iO.OOO from the issuance can be ex
pi ndil in one year.
A il aldonnan speaking of the plans
said today, "With this money the work
-will be pushed right ahead. We want
as many streets as possible lixed thi
summer and fall and thus prevent the
condition which existed last winter, lte
fore a considerable aniiounit was noi-os-sary
to arrange for the wort;, now every
thing is ready and we can go right lo
work."
SCHOOL RON DR.
Tlh' .$50,000 in bonds for school pur
poses were issued by ihe township, not
by the city. In Raleigh proper the vote
on the street IhuhIs exceeds slightly the
voti- for the school bonds. A few, how
ever, voted for tho school 1kiiiIs and
against the sit root Imnds, but more voted
for the street "bowls ami against the
other.
These bonds will bo used lo purchase
the Murphy school biiiihliing, for which
tho school committee is nov paying
.$000 a year rent, ami in the erection or
in w school houses and other improve
ments in school property.

The matter was referred to lie At

"In reply In ihe letter of Messrs.

The Legislature of ISSil first passed
this bill but. Wake .nut several otllier

1NH1 the proviso exempting AYake and
1 1 Main other coiiinlies was repealed ami
lie act now reads:

This is a mm tier Which, it is said.
has been largely overlooked. It is said
that similar checks have Im'cii used by

OVATION TO
PRESIDENT L0UBET
He Was the Hero of the Hour at the
French Races Yesterday
Paris, June 11. President Loubet has
had his revanche for last Sunday's out
rage at Auteuil. When ho drove to
I.ningchamp todtty to ml tend the (Iran. I
Prix he was the hero of n groat popular
lemoiistration, expressing itself in one
form or another along the? whole roule
from the E'lyseo Palace to tin; rnce
course, lie remained only n duai'ter ol
in hour, just long enough to witness
Ihe race, and, having congratulated the
owner of the wiuner, returned to the
Klysie, where ho arrived at. 4 o'clock
without siH'cial incident.
The Revisionists and Socialist organs
slliiMiioiied their readers to assemble
along the thoroughfares lo lie traversed
by Ihe President and his party, ami
from the hour of noon thousamls of de
monstrators set out from, Monfniartre,
Ilclleville. and. other working-class quar
ters, in big organized bauds, all wearing
a small, artificial red Howcr in tho but
tonhole, and marched across Paris, tak
ing up positions along the Avenue dos
( liainps hlyseos and the Avenue du
lioUs do Boulogne.
They gave. M. Louliot a tremendous
ovation, confining their cries almost
entirely to "Vive Loubet" and Vive la
Republiiiie. Tho President did not hear
a discordant cry, .althougli there were
one or two scuffles before and after ho
passed between the police and an occa
sional hot-hcadod anti-Drcyfumird, who
tried to shout "a has Imbet" and was
immediately iiouueed upon by a swarm
f policemen.
Although the visit passed off quietly
the tiovornnient was prepared for every
eventuality, the whole district between
the 1'ilysee and liomgcchtinip literally
teeming with troops and police. A po
liceman was stationed every dozen yards
along the whole route, and there were
squadrons of dragoons armed with
lances and mounted Republican Guards
at an important points, -while through
the green foliage of Hie Bois, on each
side of the avenue, could be seen heavy
masses of red and bine, denoting the
presence of detachment of soldiers,
awaiting orders.
On arming at the race course the
President drove through the paddock to
the Presideutiall box. Municipal guards
and police lined the patch across the
paddock. Drums bent and trumpets
hi a fed when M, Lnubet appeared in the
front of the ixx and a scene of lutense
enthusiasm followed, lnstiitg several
minutes, with an uproar of shouts of
"Vive Loubet" and "Vive l& Repnb
liqiie," which settled finally Into a mo
notonous chant
