that would bring US good roads.
It is a dangerous undertaking to at.
tempt to drive any distance out of
the city either In northern or
southern direction. Hence, our citi.
zens are taxed Tor accommodations
they do not enjoy. This state Of
affairs have existed ever since the
Ohio river railroad was constructed

county, 1t Is TO b. hoped that the
road along the river front Of Tyler
will receive the attention II de-
serves, but which has long been
neglected.
