At the last meeting Of the Lexington Bust.
ness Association a committee composed Of
the writer. as chairman. and Messrs. w. g..
McCausland aud Jos. A. Edmonds, was ap-
pointed to wait upon the county court and
ask that steps be tsken to place the road from
this city to Wellington In good or.ler, 1t then
being in wretched condition-almost impas-
sable. Since the meeting Of the Business
Association the overseers on the line Of road
have done a great deal of work, and, as has
hnen represented by a correspondent of this
paper, placed it in better condition than it
has been in for years. Still, to grade it in one
or two places, so as to put 1t above the win
ter flood from creeks debouching into it, ad-
ditiOnal work Is needed. The committee
went before the court, Wednesday, and rep
resented that the trade coming to Lexington
from southwest was very valuable; that BY
reason of the system of levying taxes Lex
ington pays annually oyer $4,000 taxes to-
ward working the county roads, outside Of
its own limits, which is not contemplated by
the law. and yet that its citizens have been so
liberal as never to enter a single protest; that
in the seven or eight years this has been done
the city has but once asked for a special ap-
preparation for u country road, and that for
the Wellington road, which was OF vital in
terest to its business interest, which the
railroad has been permitted to ruin, and that
then but one hundred dollars had been ap-
propriated. Tit committee disclaimed upon
the part of the city any desire to have money
spent needlessly, and concluded BY showing
to the court that an appropriation of SIS
would only be sufficient to place the road In
a condition that would preserve 1t from be-
coming absolutely impossible in some places
during the coming winter. The court. In
compliance with the representations made,
appropriated S75 for the purpose, and su-
thorized Mr.. Charles s. Mitchell to do the
necessary work at once, The Intelligencer
feels safe in saying to the many persons In
terested In this road, that they may expect
to see it put In good condition for the winter.
For Sale-A good residence, one of the
best in the city, on Main street, large house,
good outhouses. well, clstern, etc. Price
only g 900. Terms easy. Inquire of J. P.
