fully st last. They have brushed
sleep from their eyelids, and are a:
active in the development of the
natural resources of the country as
is the rest of the world. 1t witness
thereof, it is only just to notice the
almost unanimous support given to
the projected new Government road

so greatly needed, and on which
the development of enterprise de-
pends, is promised. and is TO be
paid for by the Government. 1t is
in the immediate possession of the
people, TO all appearance, If no un-
foreseen objection interferes with
the intentions of the Government.
