Show H Referring to the recent petition H that was presented to the Hoard of H County Commissioners, asking that H the Blacksmith Fork Canyon road bo H changed from a toll to a county road, H it must be said that Justice to all H taxpayers of the county will not permit H tills change. If the people of this K county expect the commissioners to m improve the roads, they must not bo m encumbered with more roads to look H ' after. Further, this county has one B road through the mountains to Hear K Lake and It is nearly In the center or B the county. To maintlau thu road H through Blacksmith Fork at the ex- B penso of the county would not be fair H for the northern part of the county, B from the fact that travel goes by way PH of Mink Creek. The proposed change BH that is asked for would not give the PH people a better road. It Is now kept PH up by a small toll, merely enough to PH keep the road in repair, and people BH who do not want to pay toll can pass PPJ through Logan Canyon. At this time PPJ In particular, when the county is ex- PH pectlng to spend money on the various BH roads In the valley, it Is not a wise PH thing for the county to' assume this PPJ lcsponslbllity. |
