HOLT INTERESTED
IN GOOD ROAD
WORK SEEMS ASSURED
COUNTY TO PAY COST THROUGH
THIS OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
TION STARTED.

The movement to construct a model
good road east and north from Con-
way toward Naylor, Mt. Vernon and
other points, has the active support of
County Judge J. w. Holt, who stated
today that the county court would ap-
propriate a sufficient amount of the
funds of the Cadron township road
district to put the Conway Beebe road
in perfect condition through this
township to the boundary line at Six
Mile Store.
In addition to this, Judge Holt yes
terday drafted subscription list, the
circulation of which was begun today.
A donation of $500 by Frauenthal &
Schwarz, on the condition that $1,000
be raised in the city, was the first
subscription 10 Frauenthal, senior
member of the firm, stated that they
would pay one-ffth of whatever
amount it was decided to raise here,
and Road Commissioner w. R. Nc
Henry, who is circulating the list, said
he hoped to make the total amount at
least $4,000
At the good roads rally to be held at
Naylor Friday, it is expected that at
least 81 800 in cash and labor will be
subscribed by the farmers and bust
ness men living north of the Dunn
hill, the worst place in the road. All
of the subscription money and labor
will be used in constructing a new
road across this hill and in improving
the road through Eagle and Harve
townships.

HEALTH BOARD TO
SEE SEWER PLAN

Before work can be begun on the
sewerage system in this city the plans
must be approved by the State Board
of Health. according to information
just received by the commissioners in
charge of the work. While it is not
thought that any objection to the sys-
TEN will be raised by the board, the
commissioners have instructed En-
gineer G. H. Burr to present the plans
to the board for their approval and
work on the system will not be start
ed until the approval is received. This
will possibly delay the work for sew
eral days, but is is the hope of the
commissioners that the plans will be
considered Immediately so that the
construction of the system can proceed
as early as possible.
