AT MSS MEETING
City Ticket Nominated Last
NiKht.
A GOOD REPKESENTATIVE TICKET.
Large Taxpayers Generally Remained
at Home
Nearly one hundred citizens turned
out at the mass meeting last night,
and although the ticket nominated
was a good one through, from top
to bottom, but little interest was
manifested by the general taxpayer
as about one half present are not
011 the tax roll to any extent. At
the tame lime they are men who
pay rent, consume, and thus in-
lirectly pay a big per cent of the
city tax. Geo. II. Wilcox was un
animously chosen as the mayoralty
candidate.
Mr. Wilcox has four years been
county assessor and several years
councilman. He should make as
good a mayor as llillsboro ever
had. Benton Bowman and 8.
Everitt were nominated for record
er and treasurer, respectively, and
they are good men in every respect.
The three men on the aldermanic
ticket are good citizens; one is an
extrrmely heavy taxpayer and the
other two are steady, industrious
citizens, each contributing to the
city's revenue; they are John Milne,
John Dennis and m. J. Benson.
No other ticket will be put in the
field against it.
R. H. Greer, Hon. W. N. Barrett,
E. B. Sappington, B. P. Cornelius
and J. A. Imbrie were appointed a
committee to till vacancies and
provide tickets for election. Ro-
dolpb Crandall acted as .chairman
and J. W. Morgan was secretary.
Matter of Roads.
To thk editor:
Having lost faith ia the county manage
ment of public roads the good people of
our vicinity pooled their forces this last
tunimer and endeavored to improve the
condition of at least one of the hills on
the county road one and a half mile
south of Uilley. A good many teams turn
ed nut and donated a large amount of
Kood work and giaded down a long hill
greatly improving the grade by lessening
Us Meep assent. 1 He people expected the
county to assist lv graveling or planking
said bill so as to make it passable during
die coming winter a comuuen it has not
usually leen in winter, but unfortunately
said lull is too far Iroui Hillsboroand the
county Bosses coucluded that they have
a large anil overwhelming party vote tor
their supjort cunsequeutlv they could
nut be seen or felt on this hill. The
couseuueuce is that this hill and some
others are now impassable except with
lour goed horses and au empty waon.
ihe voters ami tax payers are now in
clined to ponder ard ask themlves how
Ii ng they will tamely continue to sup
port an incompetent and dead headed
county management that receive double
the salary they justly deserved with hired
help who do most of the office work paid
by the county while the tax ridden popn
lace travel up to Jerusalem to bo taxed
ovrr roads that are a shame and as-Tidal

of a proper direction of public affairs.
