The Road Neglected

The citizens who live on the east
side of town are wondering why the
Pike Commissioners have not paid
any attention to the Pike on the Sc
vierville Road. This road at present
Is in a terrible condition. 1t is travel
ed as much if not more than any
road lea Ting into Maryville. A large
percent of our manufacturing indus
tries are on or near this road and
they have to haul their supplies
over the road. The Southern Coffin

ufaeturing Co., The Canning Fac
tory, The Maryville Lumber Co.'S
Plant, Jacksons Brick Yard, Nc
Eaughton Crate Bar boundary and
last but not least two of the largest
{?) men in town. live on the Pike
George N. Mize and the Editor OF
the TIMES, and by the way, our
Mayer S. M. Everett and one OF our
Alderman Robert Plane are locat-
ed on t Pike.
We understand that no appro-
priation has been made for this road
The people want TO know why?
They are all tax payers and feel
like they are not getting justice. All
ahe other important roads into town
bave been given the proper atten-
lion and why should the Sevierville
Road be given-te use lang phrase

soon all be washed away and will be
worse than if 1t had never been rock

their part-1ot to the retirement ct
any other road but because they are
honestly and Justly entitled to their
part of the Pike money,

assertion that she slew Field during

A WORTHY EXAMPLE.

A host of people throughout this
land and abroad will honor President
Wilson and Secretary Bryan for ban
ishing the wine cup from tables at
government functions and helping to
make this administration an example
for the American nation, for even
those who may not be total abstainers
themselves recognize the merit of this
act. 1t was stated during the admins
tration of President Hayes after Mrs.
Hayes banished Intoxicating liquors
from the table of the White House that
at a certain great banquet "water flowed
like champagne. 1t was more difficult
then than now to stand for movement
which has swept over so large a part of
the country during these latter years,
but the example now set is none the less
worthy of emulation in high places, es-
pecially in all public and semi-public
functions. Burlington Free Press.

DIR. E. B. Watson of Williamstown
brought patient to Heaton hospital in
his automobile Sunday night. On the
return journey his chauffeur was driv-

icy road and went over the embank-
ment and on to the tracks of the steam
railroad.
DIR. Watson and the chauffeur jumped
before the auto plunged and escaped
injury and the machine did not capsize.
Nor was it seriously damaged as only
one wheel was slightly bent.
Men employed at the gas works anc

and his chauffeur in pulling the car int
the road again. Montpelier Journal.
