Gays.
weheard it stated n& long since, that the
road law could not be enforced and thst t
road hands were fools for paying attention
10 orders to work the roads from overseers.
We think the above extract from the law
is sufficient to knock the black out Of such
q statemeu&, and as o friend to the hands on
the publicFoAds, We advise them to pay no
attention b aAch wild assertion for it is
very e,ideh 1t that the person who made such
q remark aidnot know what he was talking
about.
1t is very wrong in any one to advise
another to. o.disregard law to which PEN
atty is attached, for it often brings trouble
that could be avoided.
1t is ccr,ashy to the interest Of every
farmer, business man, laborer, preacher and
teacher that the public roads should be KEEP
in O good travelling condition, and until q
better system u working The roads Is adopt
ed, the present system should be carried
out 10 the very letter Of the law.
The whole trouble is, there are too man.
who ore chronic k:ckers against any and al
laws that happens to not suit them.
