The road bonds lived up to expectations. -No one felt
they could carry. Yet the two-to-one defeat of the road pro
gram is not indicative, we believe, of the sentiment through-,
out. the county on good roads.. The difficulty now, as prts;;'':1!!';::;,;;:;''.'.
viously, seems to lie in the, inclusion of roads in every part marine hiu.
of the county to make up ontvpivject The Olisei-ver has al
ways felt and said that numerous individual road projects
could carry if voted on individually. Many of the proposed
roads rfre popular and are considered thoroughly practical.
They could not win, however, when tied up with so large and
comprehensive a construction program. Union county peo
ple are for roads, and we. would interpret the vote to mean
merely that they seriously object to good, had, and indif
ferent projects lieing stuffed down their throats all at the
same time.
