turnpiked county:
BUCKsKIS TOWNSHIP, March sth 1869.
Mr.. EDITOR Sir: AS a grea
many points in our county have
their local contributors, and being
pleased with that kind ofnews more
than any other for a county paper
| thought | would write a few lines
for the Gazette, and give you the
news from this part Of the county,
The principal thing that attracts
public attention up here at present
is the building Of Free Turnpikes.
The general feeling concerning
them and the advantage derived
from them, | will try and give, as
far as | know.
For instance, we will take Fay.
cite county; less than two years
ago Washington, its county seat,
was what was considered a dead
town, or to use a common phrase,
stuck in the mud six months in the
year, with nothing going on more
than any common country village.
But as soon as the new pike law
was enacted, a few Of the leading
public spirited citizens went right
TO work to build and macadamize
some of the leading roads centering
at the county seat This Ofcourse
met with opposition. Some Of
those that had travelled long in the
mud, thought there was no other
way, consequently got up remon-
strances when it was actually so
muddy that they had to carry their
petition on foot. But it was no
use. The improyementparty went
ahead and they have now over one
hundred miles of free turnpikes in
Fayette county; making her one
OF the best improved counties in the
State, so that to-day, any citizen
can go from any part Of the county
seat on a good graycled road
Their county-seat is rapidly i'm
proving, Last fall the demand was
SO great for houses that they could
not get mechanics enough to build
them, and through this winter the
streets of Washington are daily
with teams and vehicles
produce to market, getting
their supplies or driving about for
pleasure. Now they boast up there
Of u wholesale house that does
of $3.50 cooper year. Can
Chillicothe do that? Washington
s drawing the trade from our own
'1unty her enterprising citizens are
ouying our stock and produce all
along the northwest part of our
county. Why is this2 7 loyo old
Ross county; it is the land of my
birth; it is the richest county in the
Scioto Valley; its people are as in
dustrious as any other. What we
want is action, and first of all we
want good roads to increase our
communication. Now it is cnri
osity to see a farmer and team in
the streets Of ChilIicothe for about
six months Of the year from this
part Of the county, for the simple
reason that he cannot get there oil
account Of the bad roads. We
must arouse ourselves to action or
other counties will take our trade
md wealth from us.
