The project has been twice defeated and despite the fact that the election is less than a off, little interest has been displayed in the matter. It is the duty of every voter to express his view on the question on next Tuesday by marking in the column headed "County Home," either "for" or "against" its establishment. Party loyalty has been shown at all the meetings held during the campaign by the liberal attendance and warm reception accorded the speakers, and especially was this in evidence during the last week.
