In October, 1864 there WAS meeting
in George Moods cabin TO aIrpnge for
laying out a town and giving i 6 name.
These were some Of the names the rCG >
miners suggested that the prospective
city be called, " Punkinsville. Squash
town, Tomahawk and Tomah." A Mr..
John Somerville suggested that good
name would be st. Helena.
The general taste was divided between
Helena "a shortening OF st. Helena) and
Tomah, an abbrevation OF Tomahawk.
Helena won the votes. In the name Of
st. Helena the accent is on the second
syllable OF the last word, but in the
course OF years the name OF the place has
come to be called Helena by every body.
IL is said hat one miner had been to
the Island OF st. Helena. and thought
Last Chance Gulch looked like part OF
that island. Then, again, it is said that
Helena was the name of daughter OF a
miner who attended the meeting or OF
the wife Of such miner.
But the best story is that John Somer-
willie said, in a speech that he made: 81

lived in the best State in 1t, in the best
county In that State, and in the best

Perhaps the weirdest and most im-
pressive Of the iuany unwonted memo
ries that the traveller carries away with
him from such travel in the east is
the recollection Of the camel caravans
which he has encountered at night Out
of the black darkness is heard the dis
tant boom Of a heavy bell. Mournfullv
and with perfect regularity of iteration,
il sounds. gradually swelling nearer and
louder and perhaps mingling with the
tones Of smaller bells signaling the rear
guard of the same caravan. The big bell
is the insignia and alarm Of the leading
camel alone. But nearer and louder a.
the sound becomes. not another sound
and not avisible object appear to accom-
pany it. Suddenly. and without the
slightest warning, there looms ont Of
the darkness. Ike the apparition Of
phantom ship. the form of the captain If
the caravan. His spongy tread sounds
softly on the smooth sand, and like a
great string of linked ghouls the silent
pr,Dcession stalks by aud is swallowed up
In the night.
And how wonderful and ever present
is the contrast in eastern travel 10 all life
and movement at home, No heavy carts
and numbering wagons jolt to and fro
between the farmyard and the fields. No
light vehicles and swift equipages dash
past on macadamized roads. Alas. there
are no roads. and if no roads how much
less any vehicles or wagons. Thatched
roofs and tiled cottages, lanes and hedge
rows and trim fields. rivers coursing be-

The design 81 the present dftlcle IS To
answer questions which seem TO be in
many minds; How have the roads in
Union county pai1Y' How much are
the taxes increased:' Are the farm
,rs overbardened.' "What has been
the effect upon property Valuations
"Wonll the people Of Union county
spend so much money ia such costly
roads if they had it to DO over again?
IN accordance with the provisions OF
the road act passed in 1889 the board Of
chosen freeholders issued bonds for
S300,0G0 and levied direct tax Of So
900 for two successive years. The bonds
were sold III a lump at a slight premium
and bear interest at per cent.
And now, after the roads have been
built two years--sone Of them nearly
three years-what have been the re-
suits? What have they done for Union
county?
In 1887, two years before the roads
were built, the county tax rate, not in
GLIDING school, township or any other
tax. was 60 In 1892. three years after
the expenditure Of $3.50 600 FOR roads, il
was 80.
The total valuation of property on the
assessors books increased from $27 .946.-
900 in 1889, the year the roads We're com
menced. to $3l, 7G9.450 in 1892, two years
after they were finished, an increase Of
nearly Sl.00o.000.
Was this increase all due to the coun-
" roads:
II would be folly 10 make such acclaim.
but the rate Of increase before the roads
were built and the rate after they were
built show they had something 10 DO
with it,
The fact of the matter is simply this;
The rural property IN Union county was
not prior to 1888 on the market at all
Ii was held of course at nominal value,
but there were no purchasers. The roads
before being improved Were so bad al
times that grand juries brought presen
mcnts and found indictments against the
road authorities on the very thorough
fares now so famous. and the property
along them was simply inaccessible a.
certain seasons Of the year. The mo
meut the roads were completed every
foot Of this property came into market,
and prices went up marvelously.
Another feature has been entirely the
result Of good roads. It is fact that
few if any counties the size Of Union and
having so many large cities had former
Is so few carriages and SO few roa
horses. They Were practically uselc .
because the roads We're too often iIupas-
sable. Owners of horses and carriages
had to take their drives when they sould
and not when they would.
Now the roads are thronged with car
riages. and not only with those owned IN
Union county, but those owned else
where. and thus every foot Of land comes
under the eyes of possible purchasers
who find these charming drives con-
slant invitation to locate ON them. The
new taxable wealth Of this county, which
is represented by the horses and car
riages acquired since the roads We're
built and because they were built. would
go far toward equaling the whole cost Of
the roads. Some estimate that they al
ready exceed this cost.
