Quick Work On Bridge requirements

Mr.. J. l.. Boggess, road and bridge

there was not a concrete, steel or

obstruction or washouts. This is a

Prominent Citizen Wants Good Roads.

Interest in improved roads is
manifested from all sections daily.
One of the most gratifying features
comes from Mr.. w. =. Hahn, a
prominent farmer and business man
at McNary, who says that if !here
is an effort made TO macadamile
roads in the county, he will donate
a wagon and team, and supply
driver for thirty days each year, for
the next three years to haul stone to
be placed on the roads. This is
very public-spirited declaration, and
We believe there are hundreds of
farmers and teamsters in the county
who would do as much in proportion,
so that we might have permanent
good roads. 1t would be time and
money we'll invested, as half the time
would be saved, and there could be
doubling of tonnage. If a large
number of our citizens would make
the declaration that has been made
by Mr.. Hahn, it would place the
county officials in position to take
up the matter of providing the stone
and helping in placing it on the
roads. Ii this work could once be
started on any section of road, the
benefits would be so great that people
all over the county would be demand
ing pixies, and would make arrange
ments for substantial help. The
railroad company would help in the
matter of freights, it is thought,
business men in the towns would
contribute, the many coal companies
would undoubtedly do their part,
and the county officials would strain
every point to the limit, we are con
lident. For the past several years
we have been expending something
like SIS, 200 per year on our roads,
and we might continue along this
line for century, and still would
have nothing permanent in the way
of highways. The money spent in
piking would go several miles each
year, and would provide good road:
all the year round. Mr. Hahn has
the right idea about what we need
in roads, and like a progressive citi
zen that he is, will do all he can tc
get them.

Officer Shot By a NegrO.

Mr.. W. +. Miller, a II uember of
the police force al Central City, was
shot in the leg last Wednesday about
) o'clock at Hillside. where he had
gone on business. The shooting was
done by Huston Weir, a colored
man, who it is said was drinking.
II appears that Weir had been ar
rested some time ago in Central
City by Miller, and had been locked
up. When lie saw the officer at
Hillside, where Weir lives, the ne
gro became enraged and went to his
home, returning with a shot gun,
discharging it at Miller when he was
within about 20 feet of him. Miller
fell, but used his pistol, shooting
four times without hitting his as
sailant, who was crouched behind
some bales of wire. Weir walked
away, and for a time was lost to the
officers who were soon on his trail,
but was arrested about s so o'clock
in a house near Depoy and brought
here and lodged in Jail. AT his ex-
amining trail he was bound to the
grand jury in the sum of $500, which
he has not been able to give, and is
in jail.

Lands lying near the towns are re-
ally selling at a higher price than
real values, on account of the ex-
cessive demand being made by
persons who dread the long hauls
to market over our present poor
roads. With permanent roads dis
tance would be annihilated, and re-
mote sections from the town would
be more thickly populated in a short
time. Farmers in Christian county,
since the pixies have been built there,
have had their eyes opened, aud
have found greater advantages than
they hoped from good roads. II is
nothing extraordinary to haul loads
of five tons now, with four mules,
and the trips are made quicker than
with half that amount formerly. One
farmer who lives IL miles from Hop

GOOD ROADS.
Our NEEDS And OUR
POSSIBILITIES.

There is widely developing in
terest in highway improvement in
Muhlenberg county, and many lead
ing farmers are agitatiug the matter.
From all sections comes talk of our
great needs in this line, and the
towns are not behind the rural in
habitants as to permanent roads all
over the county. This is a vast un-
dertaking, and will require much
time and money to accomplish, but
the desire is becoming general, and
that is all that is required, as when
people realize the varied benefits to
be derived, it will not be a hard
matter 70 secure The necessary funds
AM materials. Muhlenberg could
well spend a million dollars during
the next five years, on its roads,
and the Investment would prove the
most profitable OF any that could
possibly be made. Land values
would be equalized and generally
enhanced in every quarter Of the
county. Farms, no matter where
located, would then bring what the
land is worth. At the present time
it is a matter of location, and nor
the productive qualities of the soil.
