St. Louis oounty'a experience in the
work OF road-bullding ought to be q
useful lesson to other northern Mime
sofa counties. During the past ten
years the county board of that county
has expended over $1,250O0O in road
making, and the people seem to haye
awakened to the fact that there is very
little shown in practical results for this
immense outlay: Convinced that there
has been shameful waste, the tax
payers of St. Louis seek to reform tho
system by taking this work out
of the hands of the commissioners
and placing it under the control OF men
specially qualified for the work.
ITO MAKE road-bu1ld1ng experts of our
whole board Of county commissions
will be rather expensive and very
tedious job," the, Tribunal thinks.
I'm the opinion of great many men
the proper thing for the county. COM
,nissioners to do each year would be to
look over the whole field and decide
just what work they will have done in
the various districts, and i that then
