The Martinsburg, Mo, Oracle
editorially says: "The salary Of
the Highway Engineer is not paid
out of road fund, but comes from
the general revenue fund. Many
do not understand it in this way
and some have gone so far as to
petition the county for n special
election to do away with this
Office. The special election would
cost the county $1,000 and over.
Why not save this money and try
the office a little longer. at least
until we can see the advantages
and disadvantages of this Office.
Then. if it is seen fit to discOn-
tinue the office, do 50 at a general
election. This special election
seems to be pushed by only one
man; if this is fact, let us see
the object before we sign Il
petition.
