M TOLL DEMANDED
ON RAINEY'S Pixies
UNT|LREPA|RS MADE
NATTER OF PAYMENT WILL BE
LEFT TO TRAVELLING
PUBLIC.
STATEMENT OF TIE OWNER
Careful Investigation Shows That the
Condition of the Pixies Resulting
From Unprecedentedly Bad Wealth
er, 10 Very Poor.

No toll will be demanded from
travellers over the turnpikes owned
or controlled by Horace Rainey as
long as the roads are in their present
had condition. Mr. Rainey acting for
and on behalf Of the Maury Central
(Nashville), the Bear Greek, the San
ia Fe, the Williamsport and the Pu-
,aski pike, has instructed his toll gate
keepers that from travellers mo toll
IL demanded, but il they see fit they
ran pay such amount as they may
consider the road worth to them"
In discussing this action this morn
ing. Mr.. Rainey stated that after the
roads had thawed out he made care
full inspection of all of them and had
found that the constant freezing and
thawing and the unusual amount OF
rain during the past two months, had
nut them in a deplorable condition,
worse, he said, than when the turn
pike superintendents inspected them.
The roads were worse than he had
believed they were and in order that
full Justice may be done he had sim
ply instructed the gate keepers to
leave the matter of the payment of
tolls to the travelling public. Many
people, he said, even with the pixies
in the present condition, would ap-
preciate their value over the dirt
roads and would pay something, suffi-
GENTLY probably to keep up the gate
keepers.
Mr.. Rainey's statement to the pub
lie follows:
"To the public: In making this
statement to the public, I represent
the Maury Central Turnpike Co., the
Bear Creek Turnpike Co., the Colum-
bia, Goodwin and Santa Fe Turnpike
Co.. the Columbia and Williamsport
Turnpike Co. and the Pulaski Turn
pike Co.
q have been building and repair
ing turnpike roads for thirty-one
years, and in all this time I have new
er seen such severe weather as we
are now having. For the past two
months, as every one knows, we have
had succession of rains, SHOWS,
sleet, freezings and thawings, and no
sunshine whatever. The dirt roads
are simply impossible, and, the turn
pike roads are giving way in many
places, 1t is absolutely impossible to
make repairs. This Is condition
we cannot avoid.
Now, we have instructed our toll
gate keepers, not to demand toll from
any one until weather conditions are
changed and until we can make re-
pairs. But to say to the people VINO
pass through their gates, that no toll
is demanded, but il they see At they
can pay such amount as they may
consider the road beneficial to them
"The toll gate keepers are poor
people, and without some income from
the road, they will suffer. BY this
means we hope to get sufficient toll to
enable them to exist until we can
make the necessary repairs on the
roads.
I'VE wish the public to distinctly
understand, that in doing this we do
not waive any Of our rights or privi-
leges, but are simply doing what we
consider matter Of justice. We ex-
pect, however, to again take toll just
as soon as our roads are dried out
and the necessary repairs are made.
