to interfere either in l party primary IN

TO REPAIR THE NATIONAL
PIKE

President c. O. Ephlin, Of the Board
Scf County Commissioners. makes very
ssensible proposition looSing toward the
repair OF Wheeling hill. AS the public
knows litigation is on between the
tconnty commissioners and the CIT! OF
wheeling for the purpose Of deciding
WHO is responsible for the care OF the
National road in the city. TWO nao Slips
have occurred on the Fulton side OF the
hill. These slips ought to be repaired
: before winter comes on president
! Bphlin proposes that the city and county
commissioners repair the hill. assuming
joint responsibility. temporarily. and al
lowing the courts to determine the party
finally responsible for the work. This
:proposition is made solely for the pur-
pose Of assuring that the htu Will DC re-
paired before winter comes
President Ephlin also further points
out that the issue ~ question between
the county board and the city council Is
not a trivial one II the county board Is
ITO assume the maintenance OF the entire
National road within the city limits. 1t
will mean an eventual expenditure by
the board uS about 100000. A little
over a year ago the county board turned
over TO the city the sum Of $123.o0o.
This sum wasa greed upon b various in
terests, representing the Wheeling Board
of Trade. the Automobile Association
the city council. the board OF commits
sioners and the Panhandle Agricultural
Grub. At that time it was supposed the
s1o5, 300 would be all that the city would
ask from the county. Later. through
legislation the care Of the National road
was sought to be imposed upon the
county, This as Mr.. Ephlin points out.
would mean an additional expenditure by
the county within the city limits OF
from SITS. 900 to 100000 eventually. AS
trustee for the county funds, and par
ticularly as representing the interests OF
the taxpavcrs outside of Wheeling. as
well as those inside. the county board
can not properly accept such an oohSa-
ton. unless It is clearly their legal duty
to do so. On this point the attorneys
differ. The prosecuting attorney advises
the county commissioners that the en-
.actmeut imposing the care OF the Va
.tIonal road Upon the county IS not con-
.stituttonal. Until that question is de-
cdded, naturally neither the city OF
county wishes to assume a binding ool'-
cation to e1pend a large sum upon the
National road
l, is cfear. Of course. that the assump-
;tion by tic county commissioners OF the
repairs for the National road through
the city means In the long run either
IAN increase in the county levy or de-
acreaSn in the amount OF money the com
-uisaorcrs will have to spend on the
road. on1side tho city, The commission
,ers have heretofore borne none OF the
expenses for tho roads Inside tbs cit!
limits. They arc acting strictly within
tho line OF duty In declining to ASSUME"
new and permanent obligations. law
ever. i, is important that the Wheeling
hill road be repaired before winter. and
Mr. Ephlin's suggestion indicates IN en-
tireIy practical and sensible plan BY
which the road can De repaired.
