FRIENDS FAR AWAY
WILL APPRECIATE IT

Many News Budget readers can re-
call the names of former Rusk coun-
ty people, old friends or relatives. who
would greatly appreciate weekly re-
view of Rusk county happenings. No
doubt you occasionally correspond
with these old friends and inform them
of some Of the local news of your
neighbOrhood, but You haven't time
or space 10 tell them of more than the
dOingS of intimate friends or OF I'LL
usual events. The great mass of the
news of their old home county never
reaches them. Can you not imagine
their happiness on receiving notice
that you have placed their names on
the mailing list of the old home town
paper. that they may be informed av-
cry week of the dOings Of old friends
and neighborS? The very thought that
some one back home" thought enough
about them TO send them the paper is
enough TO awaken a new and kindly
feeling. Call and place the name of a
friend on the News Budgets mailing
list; the cost is trivial compared with
the kindness of the act.

proposition will be sustained.
He attributed the failure OF the
last proposed road bond issue to
carry to the fact that those favor
ing the issue did not give the mat
ter proper publicity, and asserted
his belief that this is the time to
push good roads to a successful
completion.
He said If any opposition was
manifested, he expected it TO emin-
ate not from the country, but from
the city dwellers.
1.-THE farmer owning 160 acres OF
land would have had to pay a tax
amounting 10 1880 if the road
proposition which was voted down
had carried" he affirmed. "Since
the election many a farmer realizes
that he would lave been glad to
have paid that sum in one day, as il
would have been worth that much
to him, to get his products to ship
ping stations over good roads"
In answer to a query he gave il
as his opinion that a special cleo
| ton on the bond issue could be held
| simultaneously with the spring
/ primary.
The supervisors were also assur.
ed by Mr.. Whiteside that the bonds
would find a ready market at pei
cent, and covering a period of q
years. He explained to the board
that by having the roads built &C.
cording to the specifications of tbs
state highway commission as {

their maintenance would be borne
! by the state, and that furthermore
