THE CONDITION OF THE nIGuwl

THE CONDITION OF THE HIGHWAYS.
 The condition of the highways in this vicinity is very unusual for this time of the year. Not since March, 1888, has the same month in any year been stalled with snow as at the present time, in any and every direction from the postoffice here. The most disceuraging feature concerning the matter seems to be, that however we'll and arduously the select men and all those interested in passable roads may work and shovel to clear out way by team to their dwelling, the next morning is apt to find snow-banks piled high and the way traversed and opened the day previous, rendered just as impossible and requiring as much or more work, as the day before. All by the heavy March night gales. It is esti. mated that the snow is now from two to three feet on level about here, and very small shrinkage thereof during the past two weeks.
