I he W hites creek correspondent
of tin* \\ ayne News is getting after
the County Court tor not repairing
the public road on bandy river.
The Court should not defer action
in this matter. The road is needed
and needed badly.
The County Court is contemplat
ing two new bridges in the county
—so states the Wayne News. One
of the bridges is to be built o\er
the Left Fork of Twelve Pole at the
mouth of Brush creek and the other
over Twelve Bole at or near Shoals.
This paper is and always has been
in favor of public improvements and
if these bridges are needed (and we
are sure the one at Shoals is needed,
but we are not acquainted with the
needs of the traveling public at the
other site) they should be built.
We desire to return thanks to the
Boyd County (Ky.) Fair Associa
tion for a complimentary ticket to
the races which will take place atCat
lettsburg July 26th, 27th and 28th.
There will be three races each day
and all Wayne county people who
like to witness good racing should
not fail to attend. J. I). Williams
is President of the Boyd County
hair Association and John B. Vin
son is Secretary.
An expert who was employed to
estimate the actual value of all the
inter-State bridges in the State,
places the following estimate on the
bridges in this vu/nily:

A New Jail.
The Comity Court of this county
has decided to build a new jail at
W ay no and will meet in special
session oil the 14th day of August
to adopt plana and specification*,
receive bids and let to contract tin*
building of a new prison lor the
county. There i* no doubt but that
the county needs a new jail, but we
bad hoped that steps would be made
to remove the- county seat from
W ayne to either Ceredo or Kcnova
before actiou was taken toward
building a new prison structure. It
seems, however, that those who
would receive the greatest benchi
on account of the iocation of the
county seat here lake no interest in
the matter. A meeting was held
some time ago composed of cili/.ens
of the two towns And a committee
appointed, but if the committee ever
did anything we have failed to hear
of it.
We understand Hon. Job. S. Mil
ler offers a free site for the oourt
house south of his handsome resi -
dence in Kenova, which is an ideal
spot for a court house and would be
agreeable to all fair-minded citizens
of both towns. Of course there are
always some chronic kickers when
any public improvement is mention
ed—some people who always object
to anything that anyone else might
propose—but such never ainouut «o
much and in this case their opinion
or influence would be of little con
sequence. The location proposed
by Mr. Miller is in the corporation
of Kenova and Kenova would have
the name and honor of being the
county seat, if the people of tin*!
county should vole to accept the
site and buiid the court house there,
but while this is the, ca*e we know
of no one in Ceredo who would op
pose the removal of the county seat
on that account. Personally we do
not care where the site is selected,
just so it is between the mouth of
1 welve Pole ami mouth of I»io
Sandy on the Ohio river. We feel :
it a vote on the removal of the
county seat could be taken now and \
the people without cost to ihe tax
payers will donate a suitable site in
either Ceredo or Kenova for the
county buildings anil build a coir t
house as good as the one now at
Wayne, that rpore than three-fifths
of the voters of the county would
register their votes in favor of the
removal.
Will the citizens of the twin
towns continue to sleep and let this
golden opportunity to secure the
county scat, and more business and
prosperity come to them, pass?
