The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-04-21

Prattville, April Especial. l.)-Your correspondent had short interview with Judge G. S. Livingston concerning the condition of the public roads of Autauga county. Judge Livingston said that the county is spending about $12,00O annually besides something over S5000 worth of work eXacted from those subject to road duty. He furth- CT showed that about $700O is ap- propriated by the board of revenue for road purposes and that 5000 IS paid by those subject to road duty as an exemption from work. This money and the work exacted from persons subject to road duty is expended and the work done under the direction of overseers for each voting precinct. The S10O0 appropriated by the county IS placed to the credit of the precinct from which it is collected. The over seers are appointed by the board of revenue and receive their per diem and are made responsible for the proper expenditure of the money and the safe condition of their roads and bridges.
 When questioned as to the present condition of the roads Judge Livingston said they were 100 per cent better than they were while being worked under the code form. He explained that the board of revenue under the general law enacted in 1903 made it's own rules and regulations for caring for the county roads and his observation lead
