Other counties were to got new roads and we were lu be relieved of the debt incurred in -building our roads. That was the bargain and it seemed a fair one.

In the meantime the old improvement distinct debts still stand as liens against lands in this and other counties. And yesterday holders of I'nlaski county road improvement bonds filed suit lo pul Ihe mail improvement district taxes back on the land. If that action succeeds similar suits will no doubt be filed in this county and elsewhere. No properly owner needs to be told what return of (be road lax would menu.
