That sounds good, real elegant in tool, bul-nye a ever but-Mr. Wilson does not need to. He has zealous nnil de-l friends, who are willing to a the task off hi 8 Lands an.l^ to it with vim and vigor.

WHERE THE MONIY WENT.

There is mighty little information in the report of the turnpike commissioners, alias county commissioners, published in the lo- 'esl weeklies, but as near as we can a out, something bolter than $20,000 was spent on the West Side. That $20,000 bunk wan nearly a i of the total annual revenue for roads and bridges and not so very far from one-half ol the total apportioned to roads alone.

Flagrantly bad tu was this nnne'ersMry expenditure it. ivns no iworae thm the general work. 31 is but a hit more glaring exposition of how fhe fifty thousand dollars a yenr Scioto county spends on goes to worse a waste and Ihe pikes all the lime growing worse. It also explains why the present board of comnns- li'onen finda itself without funds to make even the most urgent repairs May be it was an utter lack capacity on the part of the old commissioners to understand what repairing a rond meant, may he a-gain it wpw born of a fell purpose to spend all the money in the treasnry so its successor wonld find itself without means to do anything.

Tie best (-ness, however, is that it was a combination of both. THIb VtiLl 13E.
