GOOD ROADS.
Bad Weather Continues to Interfere
With the Work.
DONATION KEEP COMING
Good Weather is What the Commit
tees Want Now.

And still it is impossible to do
any practical work along good
roads lines. Bad weather hangs
on like a case of old-fashioued itch,
but after the clouds will come SUM-
shine, if you can believe the poet.
The work will be pushed az soon as
possible.
Subscriptions continue to roll in
and the total grows larger and
larger.
We regret very much that We have
failed to give credit for some ex.
cellent work done. We refer to the
work done by Will Overton and
Dunk Harbour. These gentlemen
have been working on the south
road, south of Douthit's, and among
other good things done have built
large culvert and made fill
through very bad piece of road.
1t was purely an oversight on our
part that this work has not been
mentioned. Messrs. Overton and
Harbour are not through with their
work yet, having been knocked out
by the weather, but they have made
noble beginning.
Following ia the roll of honor to
