WANT ROAD OPENED.
Bitter Fight on New Highway PROBE
A. Traer

Bitter Fight on New Highway Project
at Traer.
Special to Times Republican.
.Traer, Sept. &c. A. Pratt and B.
Frank Thomas, accompanied by about
d dozen witnesses, left Wednesday for
Toledo, to try the matter of the John
NJ. Beckett school road before the board
of supervisors again. The controversy
grew out of an attempt to establish a
new school road which was to be
known as the John NJ. Bicket road.
The proposed road was to be forty
feet in width and two miles long. 1t
was claimed by the petitioners that
the road would be a great benefit to a
number of school children in the dis
trict and also to the general public.
The road was ordered established by
the supervisors, the Perry township
electors having voted to open it. The
road as it was proposed would require
about seven acres of land and the
farmers owning the same asked in the
neighborhood of $1,000 for it. Three
appraisers We're appointed to fix the
value of the land and they appraised 1T
at much lower figure. The DIRECTORS
then brought the matter before the
board of supervisors at their June ses-
sion and after consideration of the
matter, the board ordered the costs of
the proceeding taxed against the petit
TONERS and no road was established.
Those in favor Of it have again brought
the matter before the board and a bit
ter fight is on.
