 We all enjoy reading. ahout roads, for there are 30 many,vaEied opinions on, the subjact that 5thes yoseEs aswill feel better after reading any article on. tue subject fof~it gives hiM an. excuse to. break the same :. old comm andment, Ejgbs. in. ,-the a.f4mily '. ;-cif ole, when otherwise hesq A.. tempeEats < man in his apeech, >.

How ever, to follow the same. line of actiou. as regards the building road in Unian; aad ipss sNexpons Is a .distinot, unfaiEness to Untons Union recei1ing a financial aid WhiGh at the, most can benefit but feW.7 and at . cost far be. yond reason to the balance of: the tax payers (reasdents) of the town. To She resident tax-payers of Union. note that. whom you pay your tax shis spring the amount of that tax will have to, every dollar and every cent. go to pay the $500 the town voted for new state road In Union. How much of shis $500 of the town's money have you received? Has work been offered you? How much more ot . load of produce can you haul to market after the road is finished? How much of the 8sOOO to be spent fin new work on roads do you suppose would have found it's way to your
