Aketrt Tki loads and Taxes. r« ta* UU]tor of IM OuMMi We notice a few people who are getting tired paying off the public road and seeing the mon ey all go to the cbingang while out roads at home suffer for wxut of a little attention. The «•«««■ says, "When you’ve got a good thing, shove it along,” and wc think this a good thing, so we will give it a shove. Why pay onr money to see the show while it’s playing for the a range went of .Mr. Robert L Abcrnetby ? Let’s quit *it ami keep our money at home. The overseers will not trouble ns often and when they do. it will he in Sep tember or October, when the air is cool. Any man can afford to give the pnplic road a day's work in two years, especially tn cool weather. Last winter they finished up a tew days before Christmas. While they claimed to work the roads twice ay ear, they worked some of them once a year and some of them once in two years, and now since they claim to work them only once a year, we suppose they will work some every two years and some every four years, so what is the use for ns to pay one dollar when there is so little prospect of having to work. If he does call on us, he will only keep 11s out long enough to throw a few lit tle clods of dirt in the holes and pile what rocks he can God in the middle of the road. Then be will leave us to go to Dallas at a 2.40 gait to pull J. R. Lewis’ leg. How often is the county uuiiciiuirnucai requirea to in spect his roads? He has not beeu in this neck of blind tigers in so long, some people are cruel enough to say they don’t bcletve we have a super. Shame 1 Of course we have a super somewhere, for we see ni« name in the papers every Mon day. Ohl but Mr. Lewis’ leg must be sore. So lets keep oor money at home and if we cant get our roads worked any other way, we can volunteer and appoint onr own . overseer and work when we please. A few words about bonds. People in town think it strange that the farmer who travels mo.it u least willing to vote for bonds, while the city man who travels little is in favor of bonds. The farmer baa a few reasons. One is be has been fooled some in the creasing his tax he thinks you take hiui fora natural fool and that he hasn’t aense to go in ont i*f the min. So lie resents the insult by rejecting the whole btisiura*.
