(Auburndale News)

An announcement of the greatest
interest to many of the smaller towns
in Polk county was made at the last
meeting of the Board of County
Commissioners, when on motion duly
seconded, the clerk was instructed to
notify all incorporated cities and
towns that the commissioners would
build the proposed highways
through all cities and towns deduct
ing cost of same from the 80 per
cent road tax which is returned to
them each year for this purpose and
If the cities and towns wish the paw
ing any wider then is laid out they
will have to bear the expense and
arrange same with the contractors,
To some extent this was neces-
sary step, since few of the smaller
towns in the remote corners of the
country would have been utterly I'M
able to pave the portion of the high
way within their limits, and it would
have been very poor policy to lay
down a good hard road with sandy
gaps here and there. 1t was not
necessary in the case of more pro-
gressive towns like Auburndale and
Lake Alfred, which had already
made preparations looking towards
doing their share of the paving.
Nevertheless 1t wis be a welcome an
nouncement here and elsewhere,
since it eliminates the necessity for
the town assuming a heavy bonded
debt, and leaves their funds and
credit for other street work or pub
lie improvements.
The so per cent of the county road
taxes collected within towns which
is refunded to them each year for
work on the roads inside corporate
limits will be retained to go to-
wards paving off the cost of this
work, of course. But the loss of 1t
will be a very slight inconvenience
compared to financing the entire
cost OF the work by the town, and
much pleasure is felt over the an.
nouncement.
In the case of Auburndale this
county paving will run from thu
west city limits to the west corner
of the park, up the northwest sid'
of the park, around Lakes Stella ant
Ariana as far as the Seminole road
and out that to the eastern limits

COLUMBUS. n. NJ, April 1.-THE
report that Francisco Villa is dead
iof blood poisoning resulting from the
wound he is supposed to have re-
ceived in the fight with Carranzistas
at Guerrero was the chief topic of
discussion in Columbus tonight
There was much speculation as to
whether the Fox of the Sierras" had
not himself spread the report in an
effort to throw his pursuers off his
! trail.
Lieutenants Fl. A. Dargue and Z. =.
Gorrell, who brought the report to
Columbus after a 800 mile flight from
San Antonio, a short distance above
Satevo, said that the natives of
Southern Chihuahua placed great
faith in it. Students here of Mex
lean warfare, and particularly of VIII
la tactics. recalled however that
time without number in previous
! campaigns the bandit leader has had
himself reported wounded in order to
| mislead his enemies. These pointed
| out that there is a strong possibility
that Villa is not wounded. despite
the persistent reports to the contrary.
, This possibility is recognized by the
military authorities as it is sup
/ ported by the assertion of the air
scouts that they had been told that

treaty by which the United States ac-
uuired for 100000 canal route rights
and a coaling station on Fonseca bay
was announced in a dispatch received
here late today from Managua by Cen

fled by the United States senate.
Later the state department received
word of the ratification from Minister
jefferson at Managua. The final vote
was taken today in the Nicaraguan
house, the senate having acted last
week. Ii is assumed at the department
that the convention was accepted with
out amendment. If so nothing remains
to be done to put it into operation but
to exchange ratifications in the usual
form here or at Managua.
As the Nicaraguan government is
urgently in need of money. arrange
ments will be made at once for placing
the three million dollars to it's credit
probably in the shape of warran
drawn upon the United States treas
