Dallas, Oct. %. - One of tn
4 best attended and most enthusi
aHtic meetings Of the commercial
club was held last evening Il
lheir quarters. The attendance wal
about fifty and was composed o.
the most prominent business mer
and farmers of this section.
One of the principal discussions
, which brought on many brilliant
Statements and few capable ad-
aresses. was the condition of the
( rtads In the county. One of the
most Interesting, talks along this
line WAS prompted by Judge e. c
Kirkpatrick.
The elimination of the discus
Sisn pertaining to the road condi-
aions In the county was that II
was left in the hands of the road
roInmittee to present to the coun-
ay court and attempt some inn
prvvement. The information re-
sceived. however, was that the
county court didn't have suffi-
eient funds to promote the project
presented by the road committee
aof the commercial club. The bust
ness men Of Dallas were heartily
in favor of the improvement Of
f'ajrview avenue, Orchard avenue,
Eglow avenue and Main street run
ming north to the city limits. These
roads are now under control of
! the county court and are in bad
condition. The county is and has
been reluctant about improving
them and 1t was proposed that the
county court turn the above men
toned roads over to the city but
this has not been accomplished.
III was agreed at the meeting last
might that better plan would be
to try to interest the county court
In getting plan and going $3.50
with the city on improving these
streets.
Another topic which was con-
yidered, which is - vital interest
to the people, is the city ticket for
souncilmen and mayor, there be-
dng nine councilmen for the four
