Since they beve commenced
grading the roada be baa made an
inquiry as to the cost per day and
finds it runs about $13.30 per day.
I am aurpriaed at this taxpayer to
find him aucb an ignoramua that
be did not know that a farmer was
allowed $3.00 per day with team to
work out road tax, and that it took
four teama to pull a grader, and the
road overseer to handle it who ie
allowed $1.50 per day for bia aerv
icea. Heahould have known thia
without making inquiry and expos
ing ia ignorance. Outside of this
tax it only costa tbe towoabip $0.00
to $030 per day to run a grader
which ia aa cheap aa anyone can
expect .to run one. He eaya the
preeent system of working the
roada is a joke. I think he must be
blind or carries bis bottle aod par
take freely when he travela the
roada, or be could aee a vast im
provements in the roada tbia apring,
especially in Lyon township, where
the farmere are allowed to work out
road tax inatead of paying it into
tbe county treasury and having it
squandered aa it waa two years ago.
I aay let tbe farmer work tbe
roada; who knows bow to work the
roada better than tbe farmer? Who
will do more work in a day than the
farmer? The farmer paye the taxes
and be abould know where his
money goes to, and when worked
on tbe road by him it ia money well
spent and value received. Give us
more tax.
The worst people we have to con
tend with are these good road
howlers snd knot-beaded King
drag advocatera. We have one in
our road district who bss $27.00 or
$28.00 road tax which be refuaea to
work. His excuaeie just like thst
of "taxpayer." He doee not like tbe
idea of beiog allowed $3.00 per day
for bio work and eight houra for a
daya work, which ia a very poor ex
cuse. Now, be can nave a cnance
to work it out at $2.00 for teama and
put in aa many boura aa be wanta,
twelve or fourteen houra per day if
he wanta to, and have the work
done around his place. I know he
won't do anything but l.owl and
expect nook one else to do tbe
work. I thank you vcrv much, Mi.
