Road from Shellmound through
Schlater, Highlandale, Sunnyside and
Minter City to T~allahatchie County
line.
From Shellmond this road runs
in a westerly direction and then in a
%northerly direction for a distance of
Pitt miles. The dirt work, as usual
is principally ditching and grading,
with three fairly large fills, about
1000 yards each, at the crossing of
Marsh and Shelly Bayous, and a
Slough south of Highlandale. This
road should have two iron bridges
across Marsh aand Shelly Bayous. A
span of 20 feet will carry all waters
in Marsh Bayou and 80 feet will take
care of the Shelly Bayou waters.
Attention is called to the map of
this road and a suggested change in
the location just north of Minter
City to connect with the bridge
across Tallahatchie River at the J..
A. Townes place which change would
place the road above high water and
would save a high and long bridge
across Shelly Bayau near it's mouth,
and not materially le%ngthen the road.

LABOR IMPROVES ITSELF.

The constant effort of the workers of this
country to obtain higher wages for themselves is
a movement which the public should encourage
II the working classes secure better wages thew
are able to live in more comfort and to on inv tho
conVenlences of life, and considering the vast
number involved any effort of the workers to bet
ter Their economic condition should have the sum-
port OF right thinking citizens. While we be-
lleve IN the arbitration Of labor disputes we pre-
sumo that the arbiters not only consider the facts
involved in their relation to the workers and en-
ployees, but in regard to the best interests of the
nation and the uplift of humanity. CAPITALISTS
may well realize that while the public abhors
strlkes and violence it is in sympathy with the
flght or human beings to live better whenever Il
is contrasted to profits and d,.,idends.

Leflore County, Mississippi.
Gentlemen:
l beg to make a monthly report of
my department as follows:
"A survey party was put in the
field on July 10th, in charge of Mr..
F. I. Walker, consisting of one level
man, five rodmen and chainmen, and
one laborer. Mr.. Walker remained
in charge of this party until August
9th, leaving US to take charge of the
city paving. Mr.. A. B. Prude was
employed to take his place and re-
ported for work on August 18th.
The long rainy spell in July in
terferred with field work to some
extent, but a road was located from
Greenwood through Sidon, to the
Carroll County line and to the Shell
Bluff Bridge, and North Of Green
wood a road was surveyed from
Shellmound to Sunnyside.
August has been a good month for
field work and roads were located
North to Tallahatchie Cou nty line,
and West to the Sunflowe b County
line in two places, from Schlater
and Itta Bena, and the road straight
ened and relocated from Greenwood

HAS GERMANY TAKEN OUR TRADEg

1t is surprising to learn that our trade with
The neutral nations of Europe, except Norway,
showed a decrease during the last fiscal year.
ms IS proof OF the t~ightness of the Allied block
ade, but it seems to us that the United states
ought to do least as much trade with Denmark
Netherlands and Sweden as before the war. RI
not, why not? If we have lost, who has gained
this trade OF ours? 1t may be that the Central
Powers, shut off from everywhere else, have taken
over the trade that was ours before the war.

of its failure to post the 1916 guaran-
