Your correspondent has noticed in
your paper that the town of Eileen
has accomplished such great work in
road building. The fact of it is that
any body who is compelled to use
the Eileen roads between Nash and
Ashland are looking in vain for any
thing like a fair road even and feels
rather thankful when he accom-
plishes his trip without damage to
himself and rig. Saturday Sept.
23rd DR.. Rhinhardt who came over
to Nash on business trip, not only
expressed his establishment at the
condition of the Eileen roads, but
that the town board of Eileen so
parsistenlv neglects this part of
their roads, engaged the road COM
missioner of the town of Washburn
to at once hire team and three men
to put the road in at least a safe
condition for public travel, and
charge the cost to him. (RhinhardD
These facts will very likely give the
people true idea as to the condition
Of the Eileen highways. All around
here we feel very thankful to DR..
Rhinehardt, of Ashland, for his gen
crosby to enable US to get medical
aid in case of urgent necessity.

1t is very likely that the North
Western people will build another
large ore dock at Ashland in the
near future. There has been trs :
mendous increase in the ore carrying

company has decided to build a

ed over $3.50, 600 in charging the
canacity of one OF their docks last
