assistant district attorney, who is en-
gagged with District Attorney L O. Lcath-

had defended him.

Tended your brother. would make no diff

No Tax Burden.

The reports of insurance companies

for the setting aside of $4,000 per
year and deducting this total Of
$4,000 from the present expenditure
from $50. 900 to $50. 900 dollars for
maintenance OF highways.

set aside enough money to retire the
Issue In twenty years and provide for
the maintenance OF the highways
without increasing the present ex-
penditure which goes to maintaining
sn antiquated system OF roadways.
II follows, therefore, that such bond

taxpayer whatever. as 1t would en-
tall no increase In taxes.
