GOOD ROADS MEN WILL APPEAL.

erai Fund

Lawrence County Highway Builders
Believe They Can Make Use of Gen.
erai Fund.
OF good roads in Lawrence county to
find If counties may not appropriate
from the general fund for road pur-
poses, a case in which the whole state
is vitality interested, will be carried
to the supreme court for a final deci-
sion.
The commissioners of Lawrence
county contended that they cannot,
under the law, spend for road pur-
poses more than is collected by the
special tax. N. T. Mason, who ap-
peared for the good roads people, ar
gued from a particular statute that
the commissioners have authority to
appropriate in addition to the regular
road tax.
Judge Rice of the circuit court held
that the particular statute on which
Mr.. Mason based his case was repeal
ed by legislation passed in 1899.
Mr.. Mason is preparing the brief
for an appeal to the supreme court in
which he will advance three PROPOSE
tions. He will question whether the
statute in question was repealed;
whether, even If repealed, its incor-
poration in the code of 1903 did not
make it once more in force; and, third.
he will advance his own Interpretation
of the statute.
Since the road tax is limited by law,
in several counties where public senti-
ment would support larger expendi-
ture, it cannot be made unless the
Lawrence county case is won in the
supreme court
