county is entitled to thirty feet for
road purposes. Move your fence
without giving US any further trouble
The supervisor viii then make a
ditch on your side of the road and
will be able TO close some of the mud
holes you are complaining about
That ditch was ordered opened by
the commissioners more than year
ago, but it could not be done ON ac-
count of your fence being ten feet in
the highway. In regard to hold
up" of road funds, my instructions to
the supervisor are and always have
been to divide the work among the
old road districts and give each dis
trict their share of the road fund ac-
cording to the amount of taxes paid,
except two districts that had over
drawn on the road and bridge fund
last year. The law requires the com
missioners to open all new laid out
roads. AS to the Patterson road, we
expect to do some work on it this fall
and in two or three years it will be
a fairly good road at cost, we think,
not to exceed $500.

was 100000. La Follettes is upwards
of $4,000 against 100000 four years

in each branch, and the La Toilette
people claim that they will control in
both houses, having II out of 33 SEN

8 stalwarts) and about 60 out of 100
assemblymen, there being some 25
democrats and Is stalwarts. If this

Stevenson or Webb is suggested as a
possibility. Speaker Lenroot will again

epidemic of scarlet fever that has
been reported to the state board OF
health for several years prevails in
Enon valley, settlement in
Lawrence county, and nine deaths
have resulted within the last two
weeks Other victims are in a pre-,
carious condition, and it is expected
several more deaths will result. AL
together there are seventy-four cases
in the village out of 500 inhabitants.
Included in this number are score
of adults. Of the nine who have died
with the disease three were adults.
The disease has spread rapidly, but
the health authorities have taken
strenuous measures to check it, and
believe there will not be many add1-
tional cases develop. The local
doctors have worked day and night,
and physicians from Newcastle and
other towns have gone to their as,
sistance and are working heroically
among the afflicted. The epidemic is
confined entirely to Enon Valley, and
the danger of it's spreading to other
towns is past.
