f. c. BARKHURST RETAINED

The many friends of Fred G.
Barkhurst will be pleased to know
that Robert S. Beightler, state
highway director has retained him
as state highway engineer. Mr.
Barkhurst will have charge of Nor
gan. Noble and Monroe counties.
While no definite word has been
given out. it seems to be the opin-
ion that the office will be moved
from this place to Caldwell Be-
several Democratic administrations,
he was the target of some of the To-
cal Republican leaders, and we un-
derstand that he did not have the
endorsement of the Republican
committee of this county, for con-
tinuation as engineer. There is no
better highway engineer in the
state than Mr.. Barkhurst.
