STATE HIGHWAY COMMIS- .
SION WILLING TO HELP US
A letter from the State High
way Commission was received
last evening by the County
Court, in which the Commission
states that they are willing to
heln us on a road project in this
county, and agree to match dol
lar for dollar any sum up to tne
sum of $200,000 which the coun
ty officials desire to set aside
under the provisions as provided
bv jaw a:nl rules and regulations
c-f the State Highway Cr.vv.'."
sic.il for the handling of such
funds.
In talking with local Court of
f icials this morning, they expres
sed themselves as much pleased
with the expression of the High
way Commission, but very much
doubted as to whether the $200,
000 to be voted upon next Tues
day could be set aside for the
use of the Highway Commission,
as the petition asking for the
election designated where and
how the $200,000 should be
spent.
It is evident however that the
State Highway Commission is
willing to heln us overe here, and
In case the election fails to car
ry next Tuesday, we would ad
vocate the calling of another
election to vote road bonds to
the sum of $200,000 to be placed
unreservedly in the hands of the
Commission for spending In this
county, providing that they will
spend dollar for dollar, thus
making $400,000 available for
permanent road construction In
this county.
Then again the Highway
Commission, undoubtedly has
road machinery which could be
used to advantage on our roads,

Dear Sir:
I wish to thank you for giving
space to the able article by A.
B. Clark. Lucky for our Coun
ty that we have citizens able to
write so sensibly. Clark's stat
ment is unanswerable.
The anonymous writer, con
cealed in the bushes, fails to jar
loose the well-rivited joints of
Mr. Clark's argument.
Yes: the unceasing succession
of bond issues will lake another
cow yearly from our small
herds. Our tax rental, now,
takes our best cow every year
in some cases her calf also.
A rotting plank road that re
quires repairs the day after it is
laid is a sink-hole to swamp us
in bondage. And every bond
must be paid (principal and
interest) or our lanls be taken
as the forfeit. Most of those
who advocate bonds have an

Kindly allow me a little space
to say to . Mr. Ilorsfall, of
Nortons, that I think him unfair
in his attack on the proposed
good road proposition, in this,
that he does not offer any argu
ment against the proposition,
but simply misquotes me in any
thing I have said or written on
the subject.
He says we all want 120 miles
of permanent roads if we can
get it for $200,000. Then he
says it will cost $400,000. He
bases his estimates of costs on
four Inch lumber, whereas I
based my estimates on 2 inch
lumber, unless the State' High
way Commission co-cperates
with the County in building the
proposed roads. He bases his
estimates on smoothing the

Whv is it that vou st?e few

1 1 upbuilding of the community,
asked a subscriber the other day.
The question l as old as Job
and never has been answered.
This community is no different
from any other town in that re
spect. There Is a ponrral tendency
011 the part of employes to let
the merchants do It, when any
thing Is to be done for the town.
Altho they do not seem to rcal-
ilve it. the man who works for
wases hot Just as much Interest
in making this u bigger ana
more prohprroiia town us the
merchant. The more the wage
lanicr does to make this a hot-
place in which to live the
more oonuvitnl he and his fam
