THE Farmre & Breeder. published
by William Hirth, of the States
man, at Columbia, No, and edited
by Geo. B. Ellis, who ought to know
what he is talking about, is very
much in earnest fayorAng the employ
meat OF Highway Engineers and
says: "A local paper states hat a
petition is being circulated asking
the c0unsy court TO can an election
in Audrain county TO vote on the
proposition to abolish the office Of
county highway engineer. After this
is done what has been accomplished?
The law provides that when the Of
flee Of the county highway engineer
has been abolished then the sur
veyo< shall be ex-officio county
highway engineer and practically the
only difference is that the surveyor
acting as engineer win receive for
his services a per diem OF $500 TO
$500 per day IN the discretion of the
court to be paid for the time EN-.
ployed. Now the question is what.
county in this state is willing to.
entrust the building Of a bridge or.
the construction of any contract work
without some n TO look after the
interest Of the county? The change in
the law win make but a few dollars
difference in the expenses Of the
county and If the surveyor Is not the
best man for the place there is no.
way % make a change before the
next election, whereas If the county.
highway engineer is incompetent the
court may remove him and get a man
who Is competent. II the engineer Is.
a good business5hke mar he can
save dhe county more than his salary
every year as has already been dem
onstrated an a number Of counties,
and he should be able to show an
improvement in the roads provided he.
Is given the means with which to.
do the work. Just as wen talk of
building railroads without supervision
as to build good wagon roads with
out ii. The Missouri Farmer and
Breeder would suggest to Its many
intelligent readers a fair and careful
investigation Of the law before they.
ask for a change. Ask yourself III
the objection is not against the adj
ADMINISTRATION of the law or to the per-
sonality of the engineer rather than
to the law itself. IL this is found to
be true, then go after the cause, get
a good and competent man, gave him
the support he deserves and good re
suits are sure to follow. Don't make
a mistake. Don't take a backward
step.
