To CONSIDER IMPORTANT MATTER.
Solid Roadway from Hunt

At session u be held early next

ordering y special election IN Csr,--

tho izing an additional road lew.

from Guyandotle u the West Vir-.
ginia-kentucky boun larry The
pavement of Third and Fourth
Avenues in Huntington, and Wash
ington avenue, Central Clty, forms
the first section of this roadway.
ana probably the III ,in b,sls for the
general plan. The opening of
Westmoreiand, aud the cons rue.
lion of the long stretch OF maca-
dam leading To aud through that
town, completed another link in
he chain. The Westmorelant
roadway carries the pr"j CT well
into Wayne county territory.
E'rly in the autumn those inter
estcd IN the improvrm went be-
lore the Wayne county cour. aud
asked the cooperation of that
body. The court was disposed to
favor the plan, but owing to lack
OF funds and the peculiar construc-
tion OF the road laws was unable
to take direct action in the matter.
Later, however, II was decided to
call a special election asking the
people OF the district TO authorize n
special levy for the purpose of
ra'siug the necessary funds. This
election will be held sometime ear
ly in the month of February. The
question has been somew hat geLer-
ally discussed by voters Of the
district. A majority OF those liv.
ing In the southern e, tremity, re-
mote from The towns Of Cereio and
kenova, will vote against the spec
ial levy. Westmorel md, Kellogg,
CereHo and kenova voters, will, it.
is believed, vote practically as
unit Tor the levy. The building of
this roadway would have the effect
OF giving the towns of Ceredo and
henova all the advantages of a
paved street from the eastern
boundary of Ceredo to the western
boundary Of Kenova.
Another class of citizens who
will favor the proposed levy will be
found the truck gardeners who live
in Ceredo district. 7 hese men
finding that the completion of this
roadway into Huntington, Central
City and even to Callettsburg and
Ashland, il desired, will favor the
levy.-Huntington Advertiser.
Ceredo tax payers might favor
the project outlined above if their
memories did not revert to tire
fact that only few years ago they
Tin addition to keeping up their
streets) were compelled to help pay
an indebtedness against the county
for improving roads. If the en-
tire county would assist in making
this proposed road then the people
of Ceredo district would doubtless
favor it, otherwise it will not stand
the ghost of show of carrying.
