Jchn Randolph and G. II. Mcknight
Tor Road Commissioners.

We are authorized this week
to place the names of John Ran
dolph and G. H. Mcknight in
our announcement column as
candidates for road commission
er in ward one. As soon as it
was known that commissioners
were wanted to superintend the
building of good roads in ward
one, by common consent these
two men were named as the very
ones wanted for this purpose.
They have agreed to serve if
elected, and we feel sure they
will receive a handsome vote for
the position. The tax for good
roads is certain to carry in ward
one, because 81 names two
thirds) of the qualified voters
OF this ward have asked for the
election, and among them are
the biggest taxpayers of the
ward. To verify this statement
we refer our readers to the petit
ton asking for the election,
which will be found in another
column. The road fund of ward
one will be the biggest fund of
any of the wards in Grant par
ish. and we particularly need
good men to expend our money. !
In the persons of John Randolph
and G. H. Mcknight we believe
we have the very men needed.
