Dear Mr. Editor: 1 at ten a short and incomplete accot pf the East Lancaster Put Roads (beg pardon tor misi of the word mads) which if 5 will kindly publish, 1 shall c< sider a favor. Now, Mr. Edit 1 realize that the condition jqr roads is no fault oi yo and I do not expect you to down your valuable quill f proceed to macadamize the si roads. But, Mr. Editor, by use of your paper you can grea aid us in laying conditii before those in authority 1 thereby accomplish somethin w I heard the candidates 'ounty Supervisor during st campaign and everyone jem made use of this idea: .flfomunity is known by is ron It th&tbitof nolifcical nhiloHfin \ r be true/ tbie community is description. General Sli ^ i.uce remarked tha' 14 v< 1 don't know ai \JB about war, but if the l^Bv were to travel these roi By extent, be would be justifiable in sayi roads are hell." And F Tee, saint and sinner, vi ** eel these roads would r "o and say "Amen.'' kHy these roads and our roa V*Smean : the Rocky River R< from Dwight to the North Ca Ana line; the Lancaster R< irom Mr. Alexander Steele's Silver Run Creek ; the Wad ?oro or Landetord Road fr /.lynches creek to where it in! Beets the Monroe-Lancaster Ro and the Three-Notched R( from itsjbeginning to Tradesvi Theee are not mere by.paths ain lines. They furnish I 'eane of communication a .'.Asportation for one of - .uost prosperous sections of < county. These roads lorm a lal distance of about 40 mil they traverse about 25,000 ac of land and are traveled by m :han three ^hundred people,'v live in this section. In t iarte block ol the county tli is not a single decent public ro Why such a state of affairs? To answer this question c rectly a little history is nec sary. In Janury 1908 (1 th this date correct) the Legislati passed what was commonly c ed the New Road Law, wh was to go into effect the first the succeeding July. For aim a year prior to this time I roads had not been worked that same spring ol 1908 oveiseers warned the hands patch up the roads but the bai would not strike a lick?sayi that the Supervisor had infoi ed them that they need not till the new law came into i eration. And our roads gr ?. ?, i.. -i . ~ ? iium uHu iu worse. 1 ne n of July 1(.H)8 came ai.vl with the New Road law went ii effect Tax-paying time ca around and the citizens ol t section, like all others, pn\d the "new roadtax. Survevj which had begun in fall oi 1^ was practically finished t spring. All the road- runn directly into Lancaster w worked?tor the moat part contract. The result is th roads are in tine shape In f they are better than ever bet and are a credit to the new r '"W. This is aa it shonld -eople out here are g h is the case. We c fever, understand v ?"ooe of country been neglected. THE ] The road*, which are now in eat such excellent condition, were idi- ior most part worked Dy con^ tract. A certain man would con* .. _.j tract to work the first few miles 5* All of road; another man, 'o work the adjacent few miles and so on ?2 ipt and ou. A fine system, this was. int The only lault is that the system wq0|u ?lic did not reach all parts ot the jk use county. There were many citi- olithe ou zens here who wanted to take of\he on- contracts lor sections of the road thole or, but for some unknown reason cbalgf of the contracts were never let. thaatl urs The people out here are not, Sfcat4 lay sore. They are not narrow favol md enough to think that their roads ^?1 aid should have been fixed before ver^ ' the any other ot the county's roads. ^ illy Bat they do insist upon lair and <jarr(>| one impaitial treatment. We paid 8ec, ind our tax, we have always been theSti g. ready to work our roads exactly a- Co. for like our brethren in other parts about the of the county have worked t heirs. $5,200 of This opportunity has been de- liverei A nied Dl4' 0 ids.
