WEATHER FORECAST
COUNTY HIT HARD
The big rains of Thursday aiftet-.
noon and Thursday night, while-prov-
ing a blessing in some respects, took
■ j, ,r \ . .> * ;
a'heavy toll from the county fund#,.
in the amount required to rebuild,
► . • » ■
bridges and remake road-beds where ,
washed away by the extraordinary
rainfall. Commissioner Wynne of the
Palestine precinct announces the
damage will total some sixty thou-
sand dollars for the whole county,•
and the damage is of such character,
especially as to bridges, that it will
require some time to out things back
to normal conditions. ,
The present county administration
_ < 'r r. ■:
had announced a policy of replaciag
wooden bridges with concrete ones ak
speedily as finances made such work
•possible, but under the circumstances
the Herald does not know what-
course will be pursued now. Howj
■ . . : • ' c : ’ v ’ - ». s■ ' ■ s
ever, ft feels assured that the court
v j _ > » : .v *
can be depended upon to do the very
best jobs possible. It Is announced
there will be no increase in the tax
rate because of this extra drain on
the county funds, and this may mean
that the cheaper bridges, of wood,
will be reconstructed.
The traveling public may be-incon-
\ ^ • ‘ - ■ - • v •
venienced fpt a time, hut we are as-
sured that the roads will be rebuilt
as speedily as possible. ‘Y . *'
