DISTRICT
NEW PLAN
Journal :
to information oh-
the County supervis-
es, the Mason County
'e will appear on the
'don ballot, on Nov-
$4, a proposition whe-
[ywide hospital dist-
formed.
like to say a few
ling the formation of
district, the manner
petition to form the
handled, and the rea-
)le in the north end
Y are opposed to be-
in the district.
WOuld like to propose-
Plan ~,hich we believe
e most sensible move
)ecially in view of the
vhich "this matter ha.+
from start to finish.
Would like to tell you
to form the dist-
circulated in the
of the County to see
area wanted to be in-
On November 3rd we will all
vote on the hospital district, which
will require only a majority vote
to pass, and while there are ser-
ious doubts in our mind about
its passage, it could vel'y well hap-
pen and then what will we have ?
We will have a hospital distl'ict
and a Board of Hospital Commis-
sio~mrs and no money to even
start the project. " ,
We would like to predict ~hat
the result will be. As soon as is
possible the Board of Hospital
Commissioners will, at a special
or general election, ask the tax-i
)ayers of the County to vote in
:a.vor of a bond issue to finance
:he construction of a hospital.
~ow this election will be an en-
tirely different matter from the
one on November 3rd next.
In the first place there must
be at least 40 percent of the num-
ber of votes cast as were cast
at the last general election, and
at least 60 percent of those must
be in favor of the proposition or
the bond issue has been lost and
we are right back where we start-
ed, with a hospital district, a
Board of Hospital Commissioners
and no money to build a hospital.
It is our belief that if the hos-
pital district is formed, including
a large share of the taxpayersi
against their will,then when'thel
bond issue is before the people
for election, it will be defeated.
Here, we believe, is an alternate
plan which should be given care-
ful consideration. In view of the
fact that a good share of the peo-
ple are opposed to being included
in the proposed hospital district,
and in view of the fact that the
matter has been handled badly
from the beginning, we propose
that everybody vote against the
present proposal and defeat it so
that a new proposal can be pre-
sented at the 1906 general elec-
tion which will include only those
areas that want to be iiacluded
and will be satisfactory to every-
one. Remember, if the hospitai
district is formed on Nov. 3rd, we
will never be able to get out from
under it.
We, in the north end of the
County are not opposed to a hos-
pital district in the County but
we are opposed to being included
because we, for the most part,
will not use. However, we believe
that a new hospital would be de-
sirable for the Shelton area and
we believe tlmt the above pro-
posed alternate plan is the proper
way to get it.
Again let us say that we in the
north end of Mason County are
not opposed to a hospital district,
but please, we are not in favor

z who drew it up, will not use and we want to be
