In-many_ SR AE ITE RNS, SUNDAY, MARCH 24, 1867. queen cee t " THE : Roaps.—Road overseers ty, and-we hope:they will labor faithfally to maintain good roads in their respective districts. Thepleasant weather has come order now, they will become hardened by next wiriter and remain passable much longet than they otherwise wotld. Many of our overseers neglect the highways us til Fall, and after the first rains come the roads can no longer be traveled. Now is the'time; and the overseers should not allow it'to pass.unimproved. It would be difficult to find a strip of county road five miles in length, from Bear river to the Middle Yuba, that could be passed over ‘places gullies are washed out, bridges undermined or gone, and in some places the roads ‘blocked “by fallen trees. If the overseers’ will go energetically to work, in six weeks these roads can be made good. The chief object should be to geta firm road that willturn water, and it should by all means be well drained. No road can be kept in good order where water is allowed: to. stand upon jt or find its way off by a drain along the centre of the highway. It is ‘an easy matter to ridge a road and dig drains on the sides of sufficient capaeity to carry off the ‘water. Ifour overseers will go to work in earnest we ite satisfied that the roads can be greatly improved without a larger expenditure than is now:made every year. The people of Nevada county pay annually from ninety to one hundred thousand dollars to maintain good roads. This inclades all taxes-and tolls and ‘is certainly sufficient, if properly expended, to maintain good roadsand passable bridges. Let overseers throughout the county try if they can’t improve on the administration of their predecessors, and so perform their duties that the roads will be better at the end of their terms than when they entered upon their duties. If reform and improvement is needed in any one thing more than another in the county, it is in the managementof the county roads. It is true that many.of the evils arise from a defect in the present road system, but we are satisfied that there are many that may be removed by a faithful performance of duty by the road overseers. Let them make _the:best:of a bad law and we are satisfied that a markedimprovement will be apparent in the county roads twelve months hence. , A woman in New Albany brought a suit against one Evans for entering her house agaifist her wishes.
