sinner, hut wo all know that while he
understands road building, theoretic-1
ally, the various duties of his office
prevent him l>eing a pracical road
1 man; and, in justice to him, I will say
that neither of his opponents were men
experienced in road building. There
fore how can we expect best results in
road building unless we have a com
missioner and overseers who have
served time as such and have been
found competent road builders. We .
' must have a change in our road sys
tem along this line in order to get
good results. Then and not until then
will we see a material improvement in
our roads. Taxpayer.

To the Members of the Independence
County Delegation of the Thirty
Seventy General Assembly of the
State of Arkansas:
We, the undersigned citizens and
taxpayers of Independence county,
Arkansas, realizing that the work of
our county officials has increased ma
terially since the present law was en
acted. fixing their foes and salaries,
by reason of subsequent legislation
and increase of business interests and
population in our county, believe that
some of said officials should have ad
ditional compensation for their services
in order to aid them in giving the pub
lic the most economic and efficient ser
vices possible as public servants. The
cost of living has greatly increased
since the present system was enacted
by the legislature and clerical men are
compelled to have more for their ser
vices. We believe that the records of
the offices will show an increase in the
volume of business transacted and the
increase of respibnsibluy, also the fees
by them collected. We think it noth
ing but right and just for them to re
tain a small part of the increased fees
collected and for which the law re
quires them to labor.
We would therefore suggest and
favor a law to give the tax collector,
circuit clerk, county clerk, county
