One of thee Curriers' good friends
thinks we are wrong in endorsing

In the new gravel road movement
for Fulton county. He objects to the
plan as outlined because he does not

the tax to be levied for road work.
He thinks it is "class legislation,
and says the proposition will be
fought by number who oppose it,
Let this be as 1t may. the Courier
believe In good roads, 1t is impos-
sible however to give everybody good
roads at the same time, and We be-
lieve the present plan will do the
most good for the greatest majority
of citizens of the county. As the
county is bearing only about half of
the expense. the taxpayer should not
have very big kick coming. Build
ing the gravel roads will be In a
measure like building the courthouse.
II is told that certain good citizen
of the county. who was opposed to
building the courthouse, came In one
day to pay his taxes. While at the
court house he asked Judge Kearby
when he was going to put on the tax
to pay for the blamed court house.
His feathers fell when the judge
answered-"You fool, the court house
is already paid for every cent of it,"
The man didn't know that he paid his
part of It, but was greatly opposed
to the increase of taxes for that
purpose. The gravel roads tax will
work out about the samee way.
