To Whom It NAV Concern

1t having come to my knowledge
that some of the voters OF Audubon
County Were talking that Howard e..
Kittel', if elected to the office of Coun-
ty Treasurer would employ the under
signed as deputy, and thus continue
the "Rotation in Office" so undesir-
able To many: l wish to state:-
When first asked the voters to
elect me to this office, | made the as
sertion that 81 would be satisfied
with two TERMS" and now, having
had the two terms through the kind
ness of my friends the voters of Aud
ubon County, am of the same opinion,
and have no desire to force myself up
on the people as a third termer or 8
chronic office seeker.
| appreciate at its fullest worth the
honors conferred and your honest and
earnest support and confidence during
the two terms and former deputyship,
and wish thus publicly to express my
sincere thanks for the trust reposed in
me, but in no event, and under no cir
cumstances, would consider an APP
pointment to deputyship under
Howard b. Kittell or any other man
whom you may hon~r with your con-
fidence.
Mr.. Ktttell is abundantly qualified
to act as your treasurer without any
other assistance than such as he could
secure for the Maximum wage al
lowed by our generous Board of SUI
pervisors.
Again thanking you, cordially, and
from my heart, for your generous sup
port, and adding that Howard E. Kit
tell if nominated and elected to this
office, will give to the people as good
or better service than has the under
signed, l am
Yours Very Respectfully,
Geo. Kellogg,
Co. Treasurer.

State Engineers Visit

Professor Mcdonald of the State
Board OF Civil Engineers of Ames
College was invited to Extra by the
Booster Club to give his idea as to the
best methods of pntting III permanent
condition certain pieces of road in and
around Extra After looking the
matter Over, a called meeting of the
Clue was held at the First National
Ba TX and the Professor made his re-
port. Among other things he said
Extra should pass an ordinance to
prohibit draymen or any others hav-
ing heavy loads to haul over the
streets of the town Farmers eXcepted)
unless they hauled on wagons having
tires not less than four inches wide.
That the best method to better the
condition Of the road from the long
bridge over Davidson's Creek east of
the depot, would be to put in large
tile from the bridge east to where the
ground commence to raise, somewhere
near the water works. He thought q
"a foot concrete span would be suffi.
Gent to allow the water of Davidson's
Creek to pass through instead of the
long structure that now spans the
stream. The small bridgejust west of
the long one could be removed slto-
gether. He thought the best way to
fix the West Extra bottom road would
be to haul, and cover the present road
with about four inches of gravel
which would make It'll permanent and
durable road. The estimated cost for
the half mile would be about $500, not
figuring in the cost of the County
bridge,
The Professor said what the state
wanted was statutory laws to be ensc-
ted governing the road building and
to this end the State Board Commits
sioners of which he belonged, drafted
bill and presented to the last legis-
lature.
