WILL PROTEST ON
THE IMPROVEMENTS
Dispute Arises Over Public
Utility of Boundary Line
Improvement.

The entire north boundary line Of
Wayne county-a highway-will be
improved under the three mile gravel
road law, but against the wishes Of
the tax payers of the townships of
Franklin, New Garden, Green and
Perry, who will have to stand at least
half of the expense of the improve
ment.
Residents in the southern townships
of Randolph county have field petit
tons for the improvement with the
board of Randolph county commits
sioners at Winchester. and 1t is now
up to the Wayne county officials to
fight the best they can against the i'm
ing proposition.
The reason is that as the petitions
for the improvement were filed in the
Randolph county commissioners
court, the balance OF power lies with
the officials of that county. Resi-
dents OF Perry, Green, New Garden
and Franklin townships do not seem
to want the Improvement to be made
and undoubtedly will demonstrate.
But even if they do and the Wayne
county commissioners stand back OF
them, and the Randolph county COM
missioners stand with the petitioners,
tie would result. which would be de-
cided by the vote of the Randolph
county auditor. He would undoubted-
1H- CT Inv ic uyh fo.
vor the improvement by a large ma
jority, for political reasons if for no
other.
On March q. the Wayne county
commissioners will go to Winchester
to hold a consultation with the COM
missioners of Randolph county in re.
gard the proposed improvement. Pc.
titions already have been filed by
Randolph county citizens and about
the only thing which can be done by
the two boards of commissioners is
to appoint two viewers from each
county to determine on the utility OF
the improvement and secure an esti-
mate of the cost. After report by
the viewers, those who object to 1t
may demonstrate. and he residents of
the townships. which border on the
dividing line, will come forward In
mass as opposed.
The only ground on which a remon'
STRANGE can be approved is that proof
of the road will not be public util.
| ity.
The cost of the improvement will
be met by the issuance of bonds
bonds which will be paid for by rev.
cue, raised from special tax in the
townships in which the improvement
will be made. Though no estimate
has been made, it is believed that the
highway. which is over twenty miles
long, could not be improved for less
than $4,000. Such an expenditure
would be small for SO long a road
and would not permit anyvery extern
sive repairs to the road.
