1t is reported that some people are
not satisfied with the work at Cave
Bank. 1t does not suit their ideas,
but no two agree as to what should
have been done and had those peo-
pie been called together and asked to
agree on,a plan, they would likely
be wrestling with the problem yet.
Some it is said propose to vote
against MIR. Marvin because the work
does not meet their approval. He
got the money to do it but beyond
that had no more to say about how
or what should be done than the
Sultan of Sulu. LIS il horse sense,
mule sense, or even the sense of the
next allied critter on four legs, to
think that because the work there
docs not suit the idea Of voter that
he should take it ouf on Marvin.
Does the fact that nearly $4,000 is
being spent there about all of which
is paid to local help, have no weight
1t does not cost the township or
county one cent. Laborers are re-
ceiving sl.75 a day which will en-.
able them to buy the farmers pork
and potatoes at present prices, Per-
haPs this fact is resented. Perhaps
farmers, would prefer having these
men without work or money and
trust them to their products, but we
CAP hardly think that of q farmer.
Perhaps they would prefer to send
men to Harrisburg who never got a
penny for the county.
Whatever they rake of for them
selves voting for some measure
which must be snaked through. For
nearly 100 years this county has
been represented at Harrisburg by
Democrats, and we ask any fair
minded and just man what the
county has TO show for their pres.
ence. The argument has been used
that if anything is to be had for the
county it must send a man there who
can get 1t, and the result has shown
the reasoning to be sound. Now if
some one can put up a better argu
ment or a sounder reason, we are
open to conviction. II you don't
want help for your roads or dikes
for the protection of your town or
free bridges between the states or
any other good thing why just stick
to the former way and you won't be
