be made by the masses. A few scat

HEAVY PAYMENT

As the. result of the new road law
in Maury county an unusually large
sum Of money is being collected by
Trustee McFall for road commute.
ton. Heretofore one receipt book
has been ample for year, but the
trustee has already found it necessa.
ry to order the second book. The in
creased payments are due to the fact
that under the new road law the rate
of Communication has been reduced to
a point where Il Is more economical
to settle this obligation in cash than
1t is to work it out. Persons subject
to road work In the country are liable
for five days work. But they can set
tie with the trustees for the entire
period by the payment of SO which is
valueing the services at only sixty
cents per day. Since almost every
one in the country, even the day Ia
borer can get from seventy-five cents
to dollar and quarter for his work
he finds that he can save money by
settling for cash.
1t is believed that the change in
the system will do much for the
roads of the county. The money will
get much better results, properly ex-
pended, than could be obtained from
the old system of having the hands
work out the number of days fixed.
