In a recent case before the Franklin county court ' Judgo Stewart made a comprohonslve statement as to tho duty of township supervisors In tho matter of keeping tho public roads In order. It Is tho duty nf supervisors, declared tho judift), to keep tho roads lit good con dition without fear of consequences, either political or otherwise. They are not to bo deterred from that duly be- causn tho performance of It Plight neeei'sltnte an increase nf taxes. The olllco of supervisor Is no sinecure, hut 'a Rood supervisor has sulllelent power to put his township under obligation to him for the good service ho may per Mrm by building roads Unit shall be what the law Intends them to be." In commenting on tho nlvove tho riilhid 'lphla J'iikk remarks : "Notoriously, however, tho super visors In a great majority of cases do not come anywhere near keeping tho rivtdt In order. It Is less their fault genet ally than that of the people of the township. Instead of making them selves popular by compelling the con striiolinn of good roads, the supervisors are In much more danger of mnKlng themselves exceedingly unpopular. There is small chance that some of them wotdd bo rontlntii d in r.tlleo, no mat ter how eflicient they wero or how excellent the toads they mude, if In their efforts they Increased the taxes paid for the purpose. Tho chief reason the stale has so loiitr put up with wretched roads is found In it preforonei) of the people forsuch a condition rather than pay a few dollars of additional tax. "This is not tho fact In all townships but It Is true of tho most of them throughout the state. Many mile of good roads have been constructed In somo counties, and tho people have been willing to pay for them, and have appreciated the advantages to be had from them, hut generally there has been great Indifference. It w:as for this reason that tho state took up tho matter and provided for state aid and euM;rvisinn. Kven this has been an tagonlzcd by the people In many sec tions, who aro afraid of a little expense Tho only remedy for this Is time and a few samples of good roads. "Meantime, if tho courts get after the supervisors some good may be ac complished. These nHlclals cannot, of course, expect to neglect every obliga tion. They must keep the roads In order, even If tho taxpayers complain." Mr. Stoke, tho druggist, will reserve you a good seat if you wish to see tho Merchant of Venice Friday night.
