tools and implements and work
on the county roads, not exceed
ing 2 days in a week and 6 days
in a year; and in case Of emer-
gency the overseer may require
the hands to work a preaternum-
Der of days in any week or year. 90
Ny conception of the law is;
That the militia is required to
work six days, to the year on
the road, even if it does not nee
essarily need work, and that they
can be required to work any mum
Der of days that will be necessary
to keep the roads in good repair,
(And our roads are generally IN
such q condition that an emer-
gency exists all the year round
This emergency clause does not
mean that the road has to be pass
travelling before it exists, but
means that an emergency does
exist at all times when a road Is
in such a condition that il cannot
be travelled with ease and safety,
so the overseer has the power
and it is his duty to require The
the road hands to work any
length of time necessary to keep
the roads in good repair. (And
this | mean for them to doD
| intend to see that all over
seers work their roads at least 6
days to the year, and more where
to keep the roads up,
even if it takes an indictment
before the Grand Jury and pros
before the Circuit Court
to accomplish this, and get the
people to understand that mean
to have the roads of the county
worked.
So all overseers will be expect
ed to warn out their hands as
soon as the frost goes out of the
ground and the ground begins to
settle, and proceed to ditch out
all mud holes, fill up chug holes,
repair culverts, clean out side
ditces and remove loose stone and
other objectional matter in the
roadway.
Don't forget that you will be
required to work nj least 4 days

Bell County's Roads

There has been quite a lot said
about the pixies in the counties
of Bell and Knox; and Bell
county has done quite a lot in
the way of grading their road,
but Knox county has done moth
ing.
Bed county has a good deal of
her grade work done, and has
possibly ~iy or seven miles OF
pike. But as we CLEAN from the
Three states" Bell county is
almost ont Of money with which
TO pursue her labors.
IN the issue of the Three
States dated February 29. 1916,
there appears Il statement of The
road funds. which shows that
they have spent 1898, 76S.21 up
to the first day of March. 1916.

last item is the one we are made
to wonder ahCut, we have had
much surveying in this county,
and we do not have any idea
how much it has cost us, but we
do know that we have not yet
built any roads. We are made
I to wonder how much this one
item will be here in this county.
/ If we could only get our roats
a proved, and the contracts le
50 that work mi .sht start, no mat
ter where or in what direction,
we would feel much better about
the matter than we do.
We do not want to get into
this road muddle, for if we do we
will say more, possibly, than we
should say, for there Is some on,
to blame for all this delay, ant
when we find out we are going
to say so, but, we do not want to
jump at conclusions and will not
do it either. But, we do want
to see something done. on the
roads, even if we get nothing
more than the grade done it will
help a lot. 1t Will make the road
so bad in the winter time we
will have to stay at home. And
so dry and dusty in the summer
we can't use 1t. But we will
have the pleasure to know we
have had some work done on the
, roads. We have spent of our
fund up to the present time the
sum of 81, 2S6.S0, but we are un-
able at this time to give the
items for which this has been
; spent, but we will soon publish

Setting Himself Right

From the Parsons (kan.) Sun.
 I wish to say to the people of Parsons that the report of the arrest of myself and two others for gambling, as given out by the authorities wherein it is stated that I was fined s25 and costs in police court, is misleading, for the reason that it makes it appear that I was engaged in a big poker game. when the facts are that | was not. It was only penny ante game, and I have not paid the $25 fine and costs, but must make payments every two weeks until the $25 IS paid or go to jail. I was born in 1862 any any one who says that have engaged in a real poker game since I was 50 years of age is liar, and I'll back up the statement, officers included This was simply penny-ante game.
