Good Public Roads a Pub
lie Necessity.

This question should present
itself to every taxpayer in Hardin
County. We are persuaded that
every person would answer in the
affimatiye to this question.
Is the road law sufficient to obtain
this endf We think it is from the
fact that no law could be enacted
that would make good roads with
in itself. There must be an united
and determined effort upon the
part of all the citizen.
There could be good roads
without any statute at all.
The essentials required are cOun-
ty pride, brain and muscle all of
which Hardin County has an q.
bundance. We must admit that
Hardin County is behind many of
her sister counties in good roads.
Then let us move as one man
in the right direction.
l earnestly request the II road
commissioners and as many over
seers as can to meet me at the
Courthouse in Savannah at 10
o'clock Oh Sept. 2nd 1895, and we
will discuss the different topics
relating to good roads and start
a general interest in the matter.
