A SUGGESTION AS TO ROADS.

A SUGG6S11ON kA0 ~ !sV1A00
Some one asked US the other day
what plan We would adopt if we had
the authority for the improvement
of the public roads. We ere moi
roing to attempt tc answer tha'
question now, but we desire to make
a few observations.
We have believed for long time
that the present plan, which seems
to be adopted by every supervisor,
Of working the county chain gang,
is an absolute waste Of public money.
The chain gang costs this county
from FIVE to seven thousand dollars
a year. Does anyone believe that
the county is getting value received
for that amount Of money! II he
does we would be pleased to have
him say SO, and then proceed to
explain in what way.
The one mill road tax brings in
about $1,000. Now let US suppose
that we had no chain gang and we
had the money that it costs and put
that at $4,000, these two items
would give US $4,000, for the main
tenanee of the roads. We do not
know how many road hands on all
roads are liable to road duty for the
entire county but suppose we put
the figure at four thousand. There
are from four to six hundred road
overseers. There are about tweHVe
hundrd miles of public roads in tho
county. We will say for the purpose
of this article that there are four
hundred overseers, that would give
the average Of three miles to each
overseer. Now suppose We were to
tax the $4,000 and divide it by four
hundred, and then the four thous-
and hands liable to road duty and
divide it by four hundred. We would
have thirty dollars and ten hands
six days each, or a total OF
sixty days for the year to put on
each three miles Of public roads. Of
course some Of these stretches Of
road need more work than others,
but we believe that the contract
could be entered into with each
overseer to keep bis three miles Of
road in good condition the entira
year by distributing these $4,000,
and giving him control Of the hands
liable to road duty on his section
and hold the road 7verseer respons-
ible for the condition Of his road
and withhold from him the contract
price for maintenance until the road
was approved. That would give
$40 a mile and ten hands and I'VE
believe that with this. expenditure
Of money and labor the roads could
be kept in good condition the entire
year. Certainly in much better con-
dlition than they are now. We mean
that the contract with the overseer
should be purely a business propo-
sition and he should be held re-
sponsible for its conditions just as
if it were the contract between Two
individuals.
Or it might be better to make the
number Of contracts less, say twelve
miles to each contract and 40 hands
and sl2O. That is more than Is done
now. -.
