ROAD BUILDING IN
LIBERTY COUNTY.
Commissioners to Order an Election
for the Issue of $50, 900 Bonds,

HinesvilIe. Ga, Feb. 5.-The grand
jury of the Liberty Superior Court, in
its presentments, has authorized the
County Commissioners to order an cleo
ton to determine the issuing of bonds
to the amount of $4,000, to run ten,
twenty and thirty years. and bear
per cent. interest per annum, and to
create a sinking fund sufficient to re-
tire, $4,000 at the expiration of each
ten years, with the provision that any
or all of the bonds may be retired at
any one of the ten year periods. The
money will be devoted to road building
in the county. The grand jury also
found a sufficient amount in the hands
of the county treasurer to defray all ex
penses during the current year, and
recommended to the taxpayers that,
inasmuch as no county taxes are to be
collected for 1904. that they donate the
amount paid for that purpose to a
fund for the erection of a high school
building, to be centrally located.
The recommendations meet the ap-
prevail of many citizens, and will un-
doubtedly take shape in the course of
the next few months.
