Married Yesterday.
C. P. Tucker of Temple, and
Miss Margaret Evans of Valley
Mills, were married here this
morning at tlie residence of Rev.
W. K. Hose, pastor of the Central
Christian church, that gentle
man performing the ceremony.
There is a little bit of romance
attached to this marriage it
seems. It is said that there
were parental objections to the
union, but the couple surmount
ed them by stealing away this
morning and coming to Cleburne
to have the ceremony performed.
They returned to Temple on o,
and will make that place their
home in the future.
Hill County Road Building.
k % mf ’a
Hillsboro, Tex., March 12.—
The question of public road im-
prove mentis now agitating the
tl}e people of this county as it
has never done before, and a
strong pressure is being brought
to bear upon the County Com-
missioners to induce them to
adopt the most progressive meas-
ures along this line. Yesterday
the court advertised a proposi-
tion to purchase thirty mules
for use in road work and the
Mirror newspaper in the same
issue in which the advertisement
appeared, published a vigorous"
editorial protest against the pro-
posed investment, and called
upon the people all oyer the
county who desire genuine, prac
tical and economical road im-
provement to unite in the pro-
test. The editorial criticism
was in part as follows:
“The era of mule power on
public roads has passed in pro-
gressive sections of Texas as
completely as the ox power era
had passed nearly a half century
ago, and the County Commission-
ers can find no justification for
relegating Hill County to the
rear of the,neighboring counties
in the march of progress. The
public road question is the most
serious economic issue now con-
fronting the people of Hill Coun-
ty and the Mirror cautions the
Commissioners against a step
that will tend to further trifle with
the patience of the people in the
denial of their demand for decent
roads and against the extrava-
gant misuse of the tax money
collected annually for the osten-
sible purpose of complying with
that demand.”
In response to the expression
given by the Mirror there was
published this afternoon a peti-
tion to the Commissioners' Court
signed by nearly 100 business
men asking that the purchase of
the mules be deferred until fur-
ther investigation can be made
and until after a mass meeting
of citizens is held on the 25th inst.
