Governor Werts on Tuesday signed for
Edward Burrough, President of the State
Board of Agriculture, the awards of state.
money for the construction of roads
These awards exhaust the appropriation
for this year and leave large number of
petitions for state aid still under consider
alton.
President Burrough says the road ques-
ton is being very generally agitated
throughout the state. and nearly every
county is DESTROYS of taking advantage of
the law of 1891, which allows the expen-
diture of $4,000 per year for the improve
ment of roads He has now on his table
petitions for about fifty miles of road
which cannot be constructed for some
time. He estimates that within the next
ten years New Jersey will have the finest
roads in the United States. The awards
are as follows: Middlesex county gets So, :
709.34, Burlington county gets $23, 780.77,
Camden gets $40, 74011.
This apportionment has been certified

rough, and the copy filed with Comptrol-
Ter Heppenheimer, who will draw the
warrants for these amounts and send
them to the proper authorities in these
three counties.
The appropriation for this county will
not warrant the building of very many of
these roads this year, and several that
have been applied for will have to wait
Among them will be the church road,
work upon which had already begun the
road from Mount Holly to Masonville;
Masonville to Fostertown; Main street,
Mount Holly, and possibly others. These
postponements are not so much on &C
count of the small appropriations, posi-
bly,, as in Difference to the expressed
wishes of tax payers made manifest in
public meetings. Those who thought that
the expense to the county was too great
were at Trenton in force last week. and
after consultation with those in charge 1t
was decided to let stone roads rest in this
county until an amendment can be
secured whereby the county's share ofthe
burden might be lessened.

called, as 1t was agreed by counsel that
the result in the case against Justice
Clevenger should govern the other suit.
In his direct testimony last week in the
suit of the county to recover fees, Justice
Clevenger said that the bills were APP
proved by Auditor Atkinson. Soon after
Mr.. Clevenger corrected this statement
and said that Auditor Mathis, and not
Atkinson. approved the bills. Some Of

testimony, but evidently did not hear the
other, as they did not give the correction
