EDITOR RECORD; Not seeing anything

Locals Of any interest are scarce here.
The general health Of this community
is very good at present.
Mr.. George Blan has purchased corn

aud have in operation in few days.
| notice, not only in our county, but in
our state papers, references advocating a
road tax. In speaking the sentiment of
this part of the county, will say that we
are, with only one exception, unanimous
ly in favor Of road tax, as we beIleve
this to be the most fair and equitable way
of working our roads. There are two
questions to be considered. First, is ii of
any interest to the country to have good
pubic highways? Second, how is the
mos lust way to get and keep them2 Oar
answer to the FIRST ia in the affirmative,
IS we have but few railroads and the most
of our transportation is done with wagons
over the public roads.
If YOU will allow US space we will make

plenty of this worlds goods. His occupa
ton is hauling cur staples over the highs
ways, The other is of working age and
don't own even one horse. The law forces
him to work the roads ten days in the
year SO that his nsighbor may have good
roads to run his wagons over. ls there
anv Justice in this? We say not any. The
law may as well say for the poor man to
do the same amount of laeor in his neigh
boris field, And again. By having good
roads we enhance the value of our prop
erty in many respects. This is true and
Sharp County record., 1885-02-12

cannot be disputed. Then is it not right
for all property-owners to work tie roads
regardless of age, in proportion as they
have need and are benefited by having
good public roads? Of course this will not
meet with the approval of ali, az there
are few men in everZ ae.gnbOrhood and
nine.tenth of them heavy property

say that the present road law 10 just. But

HARDY HISTORY IND HASH.

EDITOR RECORD: Your correspondent
will attempt to write brief history of
Hardy, its business, &c. The town is
Improving rapidly of late. Over two thirds
OF the business firms here have been
added within the last eight months.
Messrs. Clayton e. Cope have been here
over year. They are dealers in general
merchandise and carry quite a large stock.
Their bahdng is 24xS0 feet aud the rear
end 10 two stories high, and ys5 they are
crowed at all times for want of space.
Messrs. Wilson & Co. c2me to Hardy from
Ash Flat last September. +,heir business
house is 24x60 feet end they carry an i'm
mense stock cf general merchandise.
These two frI2s have a splendid trade that
is constantly increasing. Griffith & M Cord
are dealers in drugs and family groceries.
Frank McCord, of the above firm, is the
postmaster at this place.
W. G. Clayton rans frst-class saloon
here, in addition 10 which he keeps fami-
ly groceries and canned goods also new
pool table which seems to be well patron
lied by the game-loving men of Hardy
and vicinity. ". NJ, Foreman is the
gentlemanly proprietor of the hotel and
receives liberal gatronage from the
travelling public. Messrs Ritchie y Estes
have recently erected a saw mill here and
are ready to begin work now. They will
have grist mill attached soon.
DR.. James A. Atkiason moved from
Franklin, lizard connty, to Hardy last
summer. lie nndS that, although Hardy
has the reputation of 6eing sickly place,
he is compelled to supplement his meager
practice with small stock of drugs and
patent medicines which he keeps for sale.

TAX PAYING.

The following ia the legislative act ex,
tending the time for the payment Of taxes
which has been approved h. the governor:
A biz for an act to be entitled an act to
extend the time for the payment of all
unpaid taxes for the year 1884 until the
10th day of April, 1888.
Whereas, many of the tax payers of the
state have not yet paid the taxes due On
their property for the year 1884 and the
time fixed by law for the payment of such
taxes is about to expire, and
Whereas, such Taxpayers are not will
fully delinquent, but the usual depression
in money matters, the partial failure in
crops last year, and the recent disastrous
foods and unusually severe weather have
rendered them unable to pay their taxes
within the time prescribed by law with
out great inconvenience and hardship,
ard
Whereas, an extention, of the time for
the payment of such taxes until the 10Th
Of April, 1885, would be a much needed
relief to said Taxpayers, and could be
granted without any serious detriment or
embarrassment to the state or any county,
city, town or school district in the state;
therefore
Be it enacted by the general assembly
of the state Of Arkansas.
See. l. That the time for the payment
of all unpaid taxes for the year 1884 be,
and the same is hereby extended to the
10Th of April, 1885, and no penalty shall
attach for non-payment till after that
date.
Sec. 2. The penalties prescribed by
law for the non.payment Of taxes shall be
added to all taxes for the year 1884 not
paid on or before the said 10th day of
April, 1888.
Sec 3. The time for the filing of the
lists of delinquent taxes for the year 1854
by the collector Of the several counties Of
the state is extended until the fourth (4th)
Monday in April, 1888, and the time for
the sale of the lands delinauent for the
! taxes OF the said year, 1884, is hereby ex
tended until the fourth (4thl Monday in
May, 1885.
Sec. 4. This act shall take effect and
be in force from and after its passage.
