ROAD VWKK TO CEASE It is asserted, the rumor being well- founded, that, all new road work has ceased for the year and that only un furnished sections will lie completed. Repairs, of course, will lie continued hut nothing else will lie done until next year's taxes are available It is said that there w ere ».’86,0(X) in the road fund but that the moat of it has lieen exhausted, and that only enough remains to keep the roads <4 the county in condition for use without having them become almost impassable, as was the case last winter. It was predit-ted in the Herald over four months ago that very little new road work woulil lie done thia year, and it swms the prediction is to become a certainty.
