To the Editcr of The Age-Herald:
 was in favor of $1 ,000, 900 bond issue at the start, but thought 1t would be easier to get half that amount ratified by the people. I have been over all the public roads from Warrior to Short Creek Mt Pinson and Ensley and Mulga; in fact. all in the west side of Jefferson county. This side will need fully $5O00o0 itself Every farmer talked with is crying bet ter roads. Why not Jefferson county get busy like some of the smaller counties? :? You don't figure right s1,0O0.00o AZ per cent bonds would only be s45,O00 a year, which would leave $195,00O a year to pay on the bond and maintain the roads Every citizen knows it doesn't take much to keep lip a road when 1t Is put in good fix. Yours for good roads,

for the prosecution contented himself
with reviewing the evidence and Civ
ing his Interpretation. At times he
seemed to grope, his mind, falling TO
seize at once upon the next logical
point of evidence after finishing with
one. but soon launched forward again.
He spoke of Oswald's reasons, from
the Oswald point of view, for feeling
vengeful toward Harper, Kern and
Broadhead
1T could not have been because of
their doing their duty at any time, he
said unless he had been given reason
by them to suppose they would not do
their duty. by the acceptance Of bribes.
Touching upon the supposed belief
in a policy of segregation, he said:
They did not honestly believe in it,
with view to the welfare of the city
but only for revenue for themselves
Otherwise. why have they denied that
belief and tried to dodge the question
in every way? 1t Is because they We're
conscious of their guilt and were try

ut seems to me the original plan is

come in here and testify that he loaned
the amount out of pure friendship
but the discovery that Quint himself
owed $2000 to the bank on which he

such a story too unreasonable to tell,
and so the story of a verbal agree

filled in with indelible pencil. That is
Just as good in law, of course, and
for this purpose better, as 1 hope to
