A Card.
To the Democratic Committee and Voters of
Susquehanna County
The subscriber having been nominated
by the late Democratic Convention as a
candidate for the office of County Com
missioner, tenders to the Democrats of
the County his sincere thanks for the con
fidence reposed in and honor done him,
and respectfully begs leave to withdraw
his name from before the people as a can
didate for that office ; with the assurance
that while he considers it a privilege at
all times to assist in bearing the banner
of the Ddinocracy, he believes he will
more effectively serve the interests of the
party and of the country at, this time by
retiring from the contest, to hold the hats
of the other two candidates for that of
fice, and see fair play. Trusting that this
course will meet the approval of the Com

Fire in Lathrop.
The barn end sheds attached, of John
Aney, were yesterday (Sept. 16) burned
with ail their contents,—hay, wheat, rye,
and oats. The loss to Mr. Aney is about
$l2OO. Pickering & Green lo3t a thresh . -
ing machine, a self-cleaner; their loss they
estimdta at $5OO. They had just unload
ed their machine and were setting it up
when the barn was discovered to be on
fire; they barely saved their horses. Sev
eral men were in the barn whr n it took
fire, but the wind swept the flames through
the whole barn, filled with straw, grain
and hay. The fire was caused, they sup
i.ose, by smoking a pipe in the stable, or
from matches dropped4here. There was
no insurance. The loseto Mr. Aney is a
severe one, as it is also to Messrs. Pick
ering & Green. E. M. T.

Public Roads.
MR. EDITOR: --The opinion, I think, is
very generally entertained, that our pub
lic roads are in a very poor state of repair,
considering the amount of tax levied for
road purposes. That our road tax is
worked out in a manner that id next to
useless, no one will, I presume, deny.
Men and teams that are able to, and do
good days work, get no more, generally,
than those that lazy away their time on a
hoe handle, or are too "lame and lazy" to
do but little. That our roads are notori
ously poor, no sober man will deny. How
shall we remedy the matter? I will pro
pose a plan:
Ist. Our levy for road purposes shall he
a cash levy, levied by the supervisors of
the townships, and collected by a collector
by them appointed, and paid to the proper
township treasurer.
2d. The roads in the several townships
to be divided into convenient sections of
not more than one mile each, to be let'to
the lowest responsible bidder, to be by
them kept in repair for a term of not less
than three or five years.
3d. The supervisors to be inspectors of
the roads, and in case they disagree as to
the repairs, Jac., the township auditors to
be judges.
The above plan„ though simple, is, I
think, one of merit. It creates no new
offices nor abolishes old ones. It leaves
the roads in the hands of the tax-payer, if
he wishes to work a section or more of
the roads, and yet gives the township au
thorities sufficient power to keep the roads
in repair. You that are interested in good
roads, let us hear from you in both Mont,
rose papers, as all are interested. Propose
some plan ; condemn, if you please, or ap
prove this one. Agitate this subject, and
if possible bring it before the next Legis,
lature. B. X. T.
