BILL DOOLEYs LETTER.

during the night that it was dangerous /
to cross IL. Some Of the boys said J
could grease my horses with my new
discovery and they would fly across.
told then that that would be breaking
a promise / made that ! would not run
any risk by crossing deep water. No
use for man to make promises to
break. won't go down ira deep well,
won't chew sorry tobacco, wont
drink mean whiskoy if can do any
better and never would ride behind
negro nor vote for one.
AS have told you was off Saturday
night it might DO all right to tell you
what my business was. | had been "a
round distributing some sample pack
ages of my lniment and appointing a
few agents to sell The liniment think
ing this better than to let it fall into
the hands Of druggists until get it
| patented.
Well, / guess it ali turned out the
best for mo that didn't get home for

see that widow again and says that il
she finds out that | am out on The
counting business instead Of the lini-
mpnJ she will hunt that widow and put
the stuff all over her and She will leave
out for good. The name OF this lini-
ment will be Bill Dooley's Double Elec-
trio LnIment, and none is genuine
without the signature OF Bill Dooley.
1t will be sold in connection with Do
fetchits Love Powders.
Now as the Road Bond business has
been settled indefinitely it is time for
the comm isioners TO get out from their
places and begin 10 explain things to
the voters before it has to be left to a
vote of the people. If there is not
something done to get them right it
will be defeated again.
1t seems funny how some men who
ought to have more horse sense than to
talk the way thoy do about making
good roads under present conditions
We have been trying present conditions
ever since | was old enough to work
roads and We are still in u mud hole
and will be until We make graVelled
roads. Some say the tax Will be assess
ed so high that people can't pay the a.
mount We would ask the man with
the shot gun and ever SO many dogs and
nothing else what he has got to do with
this road business We would ask such
men where the bulk of this tax money
comes from and if he can't give US the
answer we can give tito him. We have
a railroad running from one end of this
county TO the other that would amount
TO something. Pittsburg and Whitwell
would count for something in the way
of tax. don't think We would be far
wrong if We were to say the companies
and owners of public property and min
eral lands would pay at least half OF
more of these scary taxes. 1t seems
/, strange that the men who have got the
a least are doing the most bowling next tC
' the large companies.
Well, guess the man with the gun
: and the dog don't travel the roads very
much SO we will let him out If be will
hush. Men who have real estate should
use their influence and try to inform
5 men who don't understand the full in
g tention of the bond question and show
e them the advantage of good roads.
4 There are any number of good mel
l. who have never thought enough abou
the road question to give it justice
When they first heard it named it mad
them mad and they never tried to &c
in a good humor with it any more.
Now let us get right and count tn
cost and then count the benefit it will
be to the public, and then see if you ar
not better satisfied about the matter
Some man in the eastern part of TIL
county seems TO be dissatisfied abou
bond issues and says his district viii
never receive 50 cents benefit from th
roads if it does pass. Now, buddy, you
business is mostly in Hamilton count
where they have good roads. Do yo
ever think that the good roads you ar
travelling cost something and every ia
payer in Hamilton county helped I
build and make these roads and you ar
enjoying the privileges of said roads a
much as the men who payed the ia
that built the roads, and to say tina
you should not travel those roads be
cause you did not help to build theI
would be treating you with injustice
The PROPOSE tion is TO build q rosd tror
Jasper 10 Kelly's Ferry and when so
come to jasper you will have goo
road to travel and il you don't come til
Hamilton county people who come
see US will have good road to travt
and then you can pay them hack f,
ira yeAng their roads. THIS will be-
case OF an shat dances h"iping pay N
e. fiddler. Now come across. pari, an
I help Us out OF the mud.
