The fact that he has negâ€" lected portions of the county road: system proves that he was wrong w.en he made chat statemnt because If he could get lots of help why did he not improve the roads now in his charge One or two days work with a team and a couple of men would have put these portions of the roud in fairly good condition but the road superinâ€" tendent had e.ther too much to do or #.s0 lost track of this plece of road entirely. ‘ a wonderful _ improvement . in | it.
