About Bad Roads.

Dear Register-f seq in the last REG
IsrER, that Town Gan mbIer" is not
much pleased about tho way the city
of Ironton is, or ia been. governed,
and why Irenton s'7o,s be a corporate
city. any more than A.adia. or Pilot
Knob, or Middlebrook. L can remem-
Der when all of these places were cor
porate towns, and they paid big taxes,
just for the name of city. But they
got over that after few years, and
agree with CITY Grumbler." think
just as he does. It's a dear luxury.
And if he has right togrowl, haven't
we poor country Clodhoppers a right
to grumble at suchpublic roads as lead
from the hills and valleys? We are
called on every year to pay road tax.
which is one of the most needed taxes
of the country, for what is a country
without good roads? / have been rid
ing over a good many of our roads.
aud hang me If can see where any
money has been put on any road that
l have travelled over, except mile or
so over Grassy Mountain! And all of
that was done by John Brauers and his
children. And of all the rocky.
rough roads ever saw, it is the road
through the Andrew Henson farm! My!
If you were to take ride out that way,
the only team you could drive would
be yoke of old oxen. Mr.. Editor, if
you had your best girl along you would
have to put your arm around her to
hold her in the buggy, and if you had
a cart you would want both arms
around her, and you would have to
drive mighty slow at that! And that's
not the only bad road in this country.
1 don't know if we have any road over
seer or not. ALI the same we have to
pay the tax. Now. don't mind pay
ing any tax that is to benefit the COM
munity, but do hate to pay tax that
goes where it dees no one any good.
/ would move the county court to hire
John Brauers to go and pick out part
of the rocks and stones on the different
roads. 1t would not do to take them
all out at once, for the people would
not know how far they had gone. or
how much further they would have to
go. No. it would not do to make the
road so good all at on
CLUDIopPgE.
