SHOULD HAVE
WATERWORKS
Election Occurs One Week From
Next Wednesday, October
9—All Citizens Should
Vote For Bonds.
The election lor the floating of
•$60,000 dollars worth of bonds for
erecting and equipiug Covington
with waterworks and the erection
of an annex to the public school
building, will occur on Wednesday
October 9, and it should cause
everyone interested in our city’s
future welfare to go out and vote
for the bond issue.
We need waterworks, The in¬
creased value of city property
would be worth the cost, not tak¬
ing into consideration improved
sanitary condition, health, and de¬
crease of insurance rates.
Many other towns and cities in
the state not having the taxable
va'ues of Covington find water
works a paying proposition.
And the $5,000 to be used for
building the school annex. We
certainly need this annex. Our
building as it now stands is entire¬
ly inadequate and this state of af
taii'9 should not exist in a city like
Covington. We cannot expect
citizens to move here unless we
have excellent schoo’ facilities.
It is right and fair that we
should issue bonds for these im¬
provements. The generations to
come will derive great benefit from
them and we should help pay for
them. We therefore urge all cit¬
izens to go out and vote for bunds.

Peek May Run For Cong ress.
Colonel W L Peek, of Rockdale
county, is the latest probability in
the race for congress in the fifth
district.
Hon. James E. Mayson, cf Ful¬
ton county, has announced and is
squarely in the race.
Dr. T. L. Whitley, of Douglas,
has tentatively announced, and is
almost m it.
Congressman L F. Livingston
has not yet fully decided whether
he will be a candidate to succeed
himself, but it is generally believed
that he will.
So the race in the fifth promises
to be a many-sided and a merry
one.
The information comes pretty
that Colonel Peek feels the
buzzing of the congressional bee,
and that he will probably be heard
from within the next few days.
Colonel Peek, as is well known,
was the populist candidate for gov
ernor against Hon. W. J. Northen,
the democratic nominee,
It is stated on good authority
that Colonel Peek will expect the
support of the administration,
should he enter the race.—Atlanta
