Show ROAD MATTERS. Snowville and Mai ad People Have a Righteous ''Kick Coming." If a city wants the trade of outside settlements, it must have good, short, straight, satisfactory roads leading to it. The farmer hauling heavy loads to market gets about as "mad"over long, bad roads as anything short of a balky horse. People from Snowville and the western part of the county and Malad, who do hundreds of dollars worth of trade in Brigham City every month, are protesting strongly strong-ly against some of the changes being be-ing made near Point Lookout and on Plymouth flat. The old road to Snowville was sixty miles; reliable reli-able parties inform us that the new road increases the distance fifteen j miles, which amounts to considerable consider-able to a farmer taking a heavy load of products to market. They say the new road bed for miles is "rotten" and almost impassable and in places even dangerous! They also threaten to boycott Brigham with their trade if we do not study their interests and work for them in the matter of good, direct roads. This is a question of vital importance; im-portance; the Chamber of Commerce should begin a vigorous agitation. |
