Good County Roads.

few weeks ago, we offered some sugges-
tions in reference to the great importance OF
having good county roads, and expressed the
opinion that the present system OF calling out
the farmers and others several times In the year
to work day or two on the roads would not
so,ura sucb roads as are needed. The fact that
tho views expressed in that article have been
endorsed by journals in all portions OF the State
sh,rs that that mode is radically wrong, and
thst Il Is attended with similar bad results IN
al narts al the State. As consequence, the
..orrrtr yaa59ss in every county in the State are
- had condition. the value Of lands IN them
thars},r greatly deprecated As we said be-
.f,~o M renast that no investment OF similar
srpounf would pay so we'll as that invested In
tbe 5muroyenaent of the county roads, which
shonls he mt in good condition and kept so by
having a few workmen constantly upon them
This Is 50 evident that any argument In support
oft seems to be wholly unnecessary. we Will
mention one fact-and it is well known that
fact is worth ship load of argument-whlch
We have learned since the other article upon
this subject was published. A worthy ana In
telIgent citizen of this county, the owner OF
very valuable property, told us that North
ern man wished to purchase his farm and mill.
He was pleased with the property, wished too
purchase it, and did not think the price to
much. But after examining the roads leading
from that property to Staunton and other
points. he declined to offer more than sum
$4,000 less than the owner asked for 1t, and
that much less than he would have given had
the roads from that property been good. The
amount that this worthy citizen thus lost IN
consequence of these bad roads would, IT judi
ciously expended, put number OF the county
roads in good order This case not only Illus
trates, but establishes the truth OF the PROPOSE
ton we maintain, to wit That bad roads great
" depreciate the value of lands and other prop
erty, and that the best investment which our
farmers could make would be that Of sutfi-
cient sum, obtained by small tax upon each,
to put and keep in good condition all the coun-
ty roads.
We again call upon our intelligent farmers
and no county has more of them than Angus
ta-to reflect some upon this subject and to
give expression to their views through our col
umns.

FAMILY UKIoN.-Onr friend Mr.
George Kerr, of the firm Of Phillips 4 Kerr,
visited Ohio recently on very interesting
occasion, whereof the Bellefontaine Repub-

We had the privilege, on the 7th of August
1868, of being present at somewhat remarkable
family reunion. Tho twelve surviving children
{nire sons and three daughters) Of Mr.. jas. Kerr
deceassd, met, by previous appointment Ct the
residence Of Mr.. Joseph Stevenson, near Belle
fontaine, Ohio, Mrs. Stevenson being the Oldest
sister. Mr.. james Kerr, the father OF this family
removed from Harrison to Logan county, in tho
spring Of 1886, and died here in August, ls4s
and his remains repose, with those Of two Of his
brothers, in the cemetery, near Bellefontaine He
was twice married. and besides three children Who
died in infancy or childhood, he was blessed with
ten sons and three daughters, who grew 10 adult
age. and survived their father. One of these

Joy and sorrow. The wives Of al the brotherr
