, Current estimates OF New York's

run as high as $500. 1000 600 for the

much exaggeration has attended these
estimates IL is a fact, however, that

Miscalculation of the autumn money

from these abnormal conditions. The

shows that foreigners are Insisting on

and indicate that exports OF gold may
be involved in meeting the require

not improbable. judging from the in

county turnpike. The start was made
in the order of his court calling for
the services of the 16 state eonyicts

to first complete a rock road east
from Newport through Union and
Village townships to the county line
and upon the completion of Ibis road
to build south from Newport to the
county line, using the road tax Of
each district upon that part of the
road within its borders. As Union
township has a road tax Of approx
mately $4,000. this would give the
movement a good start.
