Augusta Wants Him

A correspondent writing from Ora

lowing about w. l. Lee. state high
way. engineer. located at Tazewell:
Graham, Va. Oct 8-Under the
general direction of Superintendent
w. l. Lee. formerly of Stanton,
the good roads movement in Tazewell
county is going forward by leaps ARD
bounds. Mr.. Lee formerly had change
of road work in Augusta county and
is an authority on the subject. South
River district is anxious to secure his
services for Augusta again, and I'M
less be receives better support on the
part of the Tazewell county supervis-
ors, this county may lose him yet. 1t
is known that the leaders of the good
road movement in South River dis
trict are endeavoring to induce him
to return to Augusta next Spring, but
as yet they have not succeeded in get
ting favorable reply as he is anxi-
Gus to see things to an end in this
section.
Mr.. Lee has. greatly reduced the
cost of roads In Tazewell and has
shown his ability to cope with ad-
verse situations. Once or twice one
or more members of the Board of
Supervisors have endeavored to over
ride him. but so far have succeeded
only in bindering the general pro-
gress of good roads
The roads in this section are almost
impossible in bad weather, but al
ready distinct Improvement is noted

built from Tazewell to Graham.

of a rough mountain thoroughfare al
most abandoned by reason of being
we'll nigh impossible.
If Augusta county farmers could
look in on the fearful condition of
roads in this section, as a result of
neglect and lack of progress, they
would shake hands with themselves
TINT they had kept up their own roads
in degree at least, and would doubt
less determine to make a more gener-
al and vigorous campaign for extern

Tazewell county has made an APP
preparation of $3.50, 600 for good
roads. but has made the perhaps fatal
mistake in not providing for their up
keep.
