HI For the next The Road Tax Question. At the April meeting of the Alden Township Trustees, two questions will eome bofore Shall a 4J mill tax be levied, to be collected in labor on the highways in the usual manner? S. Shall a 3 mill tax be collected by the Supervisor In cash, wbicb, together with a 1 mill labor tax, shall be expended in the district whore 1C Deloogs, under the direction of thf Supervisor? is probable that one or tbe other of these plans will be adopted, and the trustees have a statutory right to adopt cither plan without either petition or vote on tbe part of the tax- paysrs. The Tinas, however, wishes to hear from every voter In the township outside of tbe corporation and will give an opportunity within the next ten days for a full, though, of course, unofficial, ballot on tbe subject. JLook out for It.

Personally, we believe the second plan Is the right one. Let that triuuies select a competent crsw to man the big grader and then start It at work Unit, in tbe district that bos money ready flrst to pay for It. This plan will give us some roads.
