DEFENDS COUNTY COURT
AND HAYs-HILL ROAD.

10 lne EllloE OF Inc SOuIFI.
Sir: / have read statements writ
ten In reference to odr public high
ways by those who are dissatisfied
with the present step taken in max
ing good roads throughout our coun-
ty. ] will take into consideration
the piece Of road just completed be-
tween the top Of Hays hill and the
home of Mr.. Hildebrandt, near Ker-
by.
Persons In that vicinity have been
writing TO The Courier that the cost
OF grayeling the road is just money
thrown away. am sorry to say that
II is a mistake. absolutely a mistake.
And all the proof one needs Is to
travel over the road and notice the
contrast In the road now and last
winter. The mistake will readily
be seen. I will admit there were
some places where the gravel was
not thick enough. but that is no rea-
son TO condemn the entire improve
ments OF the summer.
The progress OF constructing
good roads in the last year has been
great and hope to see II continue
Another statement In The Cour-
Ter was to the effect that the
fault lay with the person who had
charge OF the work. Presumably II
did But II am not mistaken, the
one who had charge Of the work had
the plans made for him so, II there
is any fault to find, one can see
where the fault lies
II the question should come TO a
crisis OF bitter debating, | should
say, Settle It peaceably and vote II
good work done on both sides; and
the public wishes you all an over
flow of prosperity. Do as much for
some other strip Of bad road as has
been done for this, and there wont
be any critIcising correspondent
writing to The Courier"
Mr.. Hagen, from a few lines ex-
tracted from his communication to
The Courier, thinks, the steam roll
or ohou1d hove haar ro1iad ova, a.
road as the crushed rock was put on.
Well, | endorse that. believe It
would have been the proper thing,
but / disagree with Mr.. Hagen as
to the material which was put on
the road. He stated that It was
about one-half dirt, one-Quarter sand
and the rest crushed rock. have
heard several persons say that they
had never seen better natural grav-
ell put on any road than was put on
this strip. This gravel mentioned
had to be taken from the Illinois
river and could not be transported
very far, as II had to be done by
team. Consequently, there wasn't a
great deal Of gravel used.
OF course the county is trying to
be economical, but In some cases
think 1t goes to extremes For in
stance, the traction engine 1t has
purchased It is a fine piece of ma
chinery, but think 1t would have
been wiser to have purchased a
larger one, even at greater expense.
