C., APRIL 6, 1921 ELECTIONS IN DOUBT From the votes heard from In the two 'bond issue elections yesterday, it is too early to form conclusive opin Ions as to the sentiment of the peo ple on these projects or, the question of general road improvement. An examination of the returns so fi r reported shows that tho people di rectly interested In either project vot ed for both projects and those not di rectly interested voted against thu Musgrove project, a considerable num ber of i diately disinterested vot ers casting their ballots for the Ow Iig project la vin g the impression that they felt this a imlore m1e ritorious 0110. It is to boo tt eI'opl in the lowo ;:urt of t1h0 cuttiy no!

We fear that forcing of the lssno on these roads at thin time haw done in caleulable harmi to the good roads idea in the connty. The deroat of either iproject miy create a rift In the county tkat will be hard to overcome In the future. Wo believe, -however, that an unprejudlced analyis tof the vote will disclone that the defeat of either project, if they are d efeated, was nit due to ntives of partisanship or sectional avarice. The Advertiser In not entirely con vinced but that a defeat of both pro jects might not have been a very 'good thing. The movements for good roads, good schools and many other pro gressive things may possibly carry us too far and load uis ip with burdens too heavy to carry.
