sue ofe$100, 10000 for road pur-
poses. Under the resolution ad-
opted this road runs through the
county from east to west and will
connect with the road that our
county should build under the orr
ginal plan. 1t is hoped that the
bond issue in this county will be
approved by the people by an
overwhelming vote, and thus in
sure the beginning of a system of
highways that will eventually re-
suit in splen did highways in every
section of the county. The in
creased tax rate for the purposes
of the proposed issue will not ex-
ceed IS cents on the $100 worth of
taxable property. Should Tor any
reason the values be increased,
the rate will necessarily be de-
creased. Outside of the rate for
state purposes, the county court
fixes the tax rate, and also con-
trolls the expenditure of the funds
coming from the bond issue. Ev-
erything is in the hands of the peo-
pie, and certainly no objection can
be had to a plan that means so
much to them. We will get two
dollars for every dollar we spend,
and when this issue of bonds is ap-
proved, that means $500, 10000
for the county. And this money
when spent will not only give us
some good highways, but the peo-
pie generally will get the benefit
Of the money spent. While the
proposed route will not pass by
your door, stillthey will bea part
of a great system, and the next
will take you in likely.

My dear Sir and Friend:
| have just read the Inde-
pendent this brighkSunday morn
ing, which brings back many
fond recollections, and together
with the blessed sunshine, +" the
first we've had in amonth, makes
me feel that life is really worth
living, and how we could improve
matters by handing out a boquet
occasionally to those who deserve
it.
have been thinking of writing
to you ever since you assumed
charge of the Independent, but |
have had my hands full for the
past year-have done more and
harder work than ever did in
my life, but have had fine health
and enjoyed the work. | have a
good, comfortable home with ev-
cry convenience, and am making
money, so what's to worry?
But | am about to lose my
thought: My object in writing
this letter now to compliment you
on the improvement you have
made in the Independent as a To-
cal newspaper, | do not wish to
cast any reflection on the news
paper men, myself included) but
as see it, you are getting out
the best local paper ever publish
ed in the county, in my recollect-
ion. Selmer and the entire coun-
ty should give you the support
you deserve not as charity, but
straight business. Old McNairy
county has as good business men
as will be found anywhere, and
if they would use more printers
ink judiciously, business would
come their way instead of going
the other way" Advertising is
like making a crop or anything
else-if properly attended to it
will pay big dividends, otherwise
it is a failure.
The face of your paper shows
that you are prospering, and /
trust it will continue, only more
so.
With kindest regards to all, II
am a friend to every McNairian,
