Want New Road.
A petition for the opening of a
county road along the north line
of school section 16, northeast of
town, has been presented to the
county board, and will no doubt
be allowed. The road starts from
the brick yard and runs along the
north line of the school section,
taking a strip of land from Louis
Kaufman, Wick Bros., and the
Parker and Batty land, anti then
connecting with the intersection of
other county roads running north,
south auu I nst. The opening of
the new road will lienefit the
settlers living northeast by short
ening the distance to towu nearly
three quarters of'a mile.
Building Mighty Good Road.
The enterprising settlers residing
along the foothills and in the tim
ber south of town are putting in
a whole lot of good donation work
upon the road south of Meadow
street, and promise to have it in
such shape pretty soon, that with
a trip or two of the steam roller,
it will become a nice pleasure drive
for townsfolks, as well as greatly
facilitating the hauling of cordwood
and other produce from that secti
on. The work is being done by
supervisor Chris Schmadeka. That
road has long been in need of
work, considering the amount of
travel aud wood hauled over it.
Tree Fell On Him.
Jessie Heitter, an employe of
the Root Mill, met with a ven
serious accident Saturday last uml

the tree fell striking him acrosi

Campbell was called aud adminis
