Show Change ot County Road j j Some of the actions of a few people ' ' who are trying all the time to railroad j some proposition for some selfish motive make a sane man feel like saying. "O I Lord how long will this people stand i for such actions." It has been reported that a few people peo-ple are trying to change the county and state road between here and Price, and put it through Lawrence, Cleveland and thence to Wellington. This would be the biggest lot of foolishness fool-ishness that our officials could do. We have already paid out thousands of dollars dol-lars to establish the county road between be-tween here and Price, and to make a change now and have to build a new , road when our present road is run bet- ter than ever before, would be extremely I foolish. The appropriation made by the state of $14,000 seems to affect some of our people and they are taking a great deal j of trouble to try and find a place to i spend it. Why not put this appropriation appropria-tion on the already fair road and make it one of the best in the state, instead . of making a lot of little claws branching j out to no-where? , There need be little concern over this proposed change, however, for our com- I missioners are men of experience and know their business, and their past actions have demonstrated that they will do the right thing for the good of the county and the majority of the people. There is one road that needs to be repaired re-paired and designated as a state road, and that is between this city and Green River. Although Green River really belongs to this county it is isolated from us at present. Something should be done to break down this barrier, but we cannot afford to change the present county road between here and Price. Such a move would introduce a new burden bur-den to the counts, for instead of hiving to keep up but one, the expenses of the two would devolve on us. |
