Dia- Voters Will Pnas on re Levy of for New Bulldlna. At a special meeting of the Board of Education last nlpht It was decided to hold a special election on Tuesday, July 6, at which the proposition in levy an addltlonnl $7,500 in order to erect the new school building at Oak street and Broadway will be submitted to the voters of the Independent school district of Council Bluffs. Last spring a levy of $20,000 for the purchase of a site and the erection of a school In the eastern par of the city was voted. Of this amount J7.S01 was expanded on the site, but the board disposed of buildings on the property for $1,500, leaving the net cost of the site The lowest bids for the construction of the new schoolhouse were In the neighborhood of $17,000, without including Dlumblnir. heating and lighting or the architect's fees.

This left the board somewhat in a quandary and for a while It looked as If the hoard would defer the erection of the new school until next year. The need of the new school, however, as so evident that the board finally last night decided to ask for an additional lew of $7 500. The contract for the school building was awarded to Wickham Brothers on their bid of conditional on fhe addi tional levy of $7,503, carrying at the special lection. For the purpose of the special election the same as at the regular school elections the school district la divided Into six voting precincts, which correspond practically with the tlx wards of the city. The following Is the list of voting places with judges and clerks of election as approved at the meeting of the board last night.
