MASTERLY INACTION.
A Letter on that impossible Bastrop
Public Road.

Letter on that impossible BastrOp
Public Road.
To Editor Statesman:
Our citizens may not generally know
that the short piece OF road southeast
of the city, known as the "Bastrop
lane" is still in almost an impossible
condition. A year ago the county
commissioners undertook, after con-
siderable arguing, to look into the
matter. Two or three months ago
committee from the Board of Trade
used their valuable time to go before
the commissioners and urge upon
them prompt action in the premises
Today Il resident Of that section in
formed the writer that not only is the
lane still neglected, but that there is n
bridge there 50 narrow that it is with
the utmost care that wagons are pre-
vented from raining off the sides, and
the bri geitselfis in dangerous condi-
ton. Now | would like to know what
our county commissioners are elected
for if not to look after the interests of
the PEG, lie, whose servants they are?
Can Austin afford to let these gentle
mems inaction stand in the way OF our
city's prosperity, for if this matter is
not atten 1ed to without further de-
lay, it means loss to Austin of about
1000 bales of cotton. | for one insist
that immediate attention be given 20
this important matter. G.
