Only 39 ) Votes Cast Against Bonds in Over 1,000 Here Casper cast- approximately 1,100 votes in favor of the good roads yesterday when the electorate here, despite the fact that the prevalent be- lief was that the bond issue was assured and that it was necessary to) vote, swarmed to the support of tHe $1,800,000 bond issue which was determiicd favorably throughout the state, according to incompleted re turns. Casper’s total vote in favor of the bond issue was 1,052, with but 39 votes being registered against the is- sue, and of this latter total cight votes was the largest registered in opposi- tion in any of the many voting dls- tricts in Casper and Mills. <The bond issue will leave central Wyoming with a plurality of over 3,000 votes, which it is ‘thought will be encugh to cover’ opposition that might be manifest in any other dis. trict in the state. ‘The Nichols precinct hire gots the honors of the city.

CASPER, WYO., THURSDAY, MAY 12, 1921 - ROAD BONDS CARRY EVERY PRECINCT FRENCH TO JOWN | The record vote which was piled up|) The smaii vote which turned ost in’ Cheyenne is indicative of the result of this feeling. There, were nearly two votes cast in Casper for every one cast in the southern city. Sheridan is still to be heard from, but is the only city in the state that hhas a chance now to bring out a big- ger yote than shown in Casper. Sheri- dan's challenge to the rest of the state offering to wager it would turn out a greater percentage of votes in favor of the bond issue, “based on population, than any other town is responsible for the belief that a big vote was mus- tered at the polls. Until Sheridan's returns age in. at least, Casper stands at the head of the list for the almost unanimous support given the bond issue. Sheridan piled up a bigger total for and against the bonds yesterday than Casper did, with a total of 1,525 for, 234 against, according to final figures re: eeived this afternoon by the chamber of commerce. In percentage, however, the Casper results overshadow Sher!- dan’s returpe. on & ratio of six to one, BOXERS TO BE INSURED NEW YORK, May 11.—Tex Rick- ard, promoter of the world’s heavy- weight championship bout -between | dack Dempsey and Georges Carpen- tier in Jersey City, July 2, an- mounced today he had taken out policies for $100,000 each to insure fa — against accident or in.
