The county will be prac tically free from debt, the only obliga tions being the warrants for road work, which' will have to be indorsed by the county treasurer when they are present ed from now until the end of the year. The eatlmatea of the recelpta and ex penditures made the ftrat of the year ahowed the county would have no lia bilities at its close, but an unusually large amount of road work thla fall made the expenses . heavier than esti mated. Thla has been due to the un usually dry weather, which permitted a great amount of Improvement to be made to the thoroughfares in the coun ty. Instead of expending an average of IS.00S a-month for road work, the bills will foot twice this sum. ""The road fund is exhausted," ssld County Treasurer Lewis this morning, "and I will have to Indorse the remain der of. the warrants which are received. There will be sufficient in the general fund to meet all other expenses until th taxes begin to come in next spring, We will close ' this year tn better shape than for 11 years.
