On Monday a petition was filed In
County Court, asking that the ques
tion of the Issue of road bonds be
submitted to the voters of the coun
ty in the near future. The plan la
to issue bond to the umount of
$,100,000, in convenient denomina
tions, payable in from one to twen
ty years, a sinking fund to be set
aside out of the annual revenue to
pay the interest on the bonds and
the bonds themselves as they come
due. The circulation of the petition
has been received with pnthiiHlaxm
in various sections of the county.
In view of the fart that Ohio Coun
ty Is hopelessly iu debt, making
adequate road improvement impossi
ble under the proaent regime, the
bond proportion nppeurs to bu the
only solution of the good roads
question.
If bonds are voted, the proceeds
will be used to build and maintain
