GROW CREEK.

The condition of tho roads in Pickons
county is q serious matter. A gentle
man from Kooweo rivor says that tho
thresher could not get to one of his
neighbors houses because Of tho bad
condition Of the road. TO state it in plain
English, this disgrace and shame TO
our county. What is tho cause of this
condition Of the roads, There is cause
somewhere. Every effect must have n
CO. use. 1t must be insufficient law-dc-
fective legislation. 1t seems to this
scribe that the law should require all
ablc-bodiod men from Is to 55 years to
work ten days the first yer to put the
roads Ill good condition, then after tho
hrst year six days would keep them in
good order, abolish tho Communication
tax, rs L am informed it is failure, and
has tendency to offer u chance for
fraud. 1t will not do for public funds
to pass through too many fingers, it will
stick somewhere. Something must be
done. AS it is ut present, nll tho most
hllly part of the county is about impnss-
able, People will have to sell their bag.
gIes and 60 horseback.
If the County Commissioners will al
low it and not think it dctatoriul, |
would humbly suggest that they call IL
mass meeting of the citizens of Pickons
county to meet in the court houso some
time i'll August to discuss the road con-
dltlon and pass resolutions expressing
tho kind of road law we need and ask
our members in tho legislature to enact
them into law for our county.
