Road Bond Election Saturday
Saturday is the day for the Road Bond election.
The people of the county have informed themselves as
to the issue, and the leaders in the movement feel that
Bonds will carry by a big majority.
The fact that Bonds will give us good roads, will
lower our taxes, and will release in Walker county
$400,000 of new and foreign money at a time when the
county needs this money in circulation, is an argu
ment that is unanswerable in favor of voting for bonds
Saturday.
The Bank of LaFayette, ever for the progressive
measures and for the best interests of the people of
the county, heartily endorses the Bond Issue for roads.
Vote for it Saturday and get all your friends to
cast their ballots for it.
