Ne County Money for Roads.

Ne County Money for Roads.
 Last week Tuesday an adjourned eau cus of the Litohfeld county senators and representatives was held. Repre- sentative A. T. Roraback was chairman. Representative Jackson of New Milford introduced . resolution that county tax of [ of mill be laid for the purpose of raising money to pay about sl3,OOo to the seven towns. which have improv- cd thsir roads under the good roads act, and also to raise $6. TOO for ordinary county purposes. Senators Herman and Warner and Representative A. T. Rorahack opposed the resolution and Lawyer Williams of New Milford sup ported it Finally the resolution was tabled, Nr Jackson alone voting against tAbling.
 The law of 1895, known as the good roads act. provides that one-third of the expense of construction and permanent improvement of roads shall be paid ''out of any money in the treasury of the county not otherwise appropriated. ;" No obligation is imposed on the county to appropriate money for roads. The opinion of the majority of the caucus seems to have been that the poorer towns. already over-taxed and burden cd with debts. should not be further bardened to raise money to build good roads for their rich and prosperous sis tsrs. luxuries which they could not sf- ford to have for themselves.
