Communication.
Editor Leader:- T. Huntsucker
and John Wallin of Beaver Creek
have a force of men and teams at
work on a new road running up
Beaver Creek. This road when
finished is to connect with the
county road at J. M. Bowers' place.
That is tbe kind of push and
energy we like to see. If our
county officials had some of the
same, the people in the south part
of the county would have a better
chance of getting to the county
capitol. We need a good ferry.
Under the existing conditions it U
easier to send to Chicago for our
goods than to go to the county seat.
