K*U Brush • Court It Vol. 1 No. 26 BRUSHTON, N. Y>, THURSDAY, December 3,1953 'iiiji i iliilin Mr.iat PRICE: Three CENTS Facts not Fallacies The building of good roads has. — been a paramiGMiint quotation since the » - advent of the automolle. In the • year i&oa • sight here in Franklin County, public setiamftut was becom- ing aroused and Caere wai * earnest demand for road hnipovement. In that year the Franklin County Board of Bt«p«rviors commended .that the all-moaiey iplap of cartes' for the high ways be made ntfandatory and that the practice of commuting road tax- es by labor be abolished. In addit- ion, a number of towns had prervius- ly taken up this Question and had ibonded themselves in considerable amounts for the impiroveiment of particular roads and for building bridges. A beginning' along right lines having been made .there was no halting 1 it, and two or three years later the supervisors voted, eighteen to one, to apply for the county's full share of road construction under the fifty, million dollar, State bond issue. In 1906 petition was formally made, (for itafprovement by the State of 1®9 imilw'ftf road>Jn the tcoumty, witjh specifications of the roads so . that J every town should have Its equitable (tnitefoge, e^d -with rthe, a&au&niption by the towns and the ©on&ty of the pro- portionate part of the cost to ee bor- ate by each. This interest, late in drv#lopimg, coninued and extended developing continued and. extended ed to 'bond fche^qajp^ for half a half * million falars tor the in> prov«m#nt of hdghways, the cotsnty providing two&tlrds and the State one*thN, Theae bonds were pay- able at Hhe' rate of $10,000.00 ,,per year and at 4 1-4 jpement interest. The bond* were not callable so that the county has paid a very large amount of interest. At the present time there Is still unpaid $60,000.00. amd this amount will „not be finally Ipaiid umtl 1&00. It mght state here that' this is the only bonded indebtl edness that Franklin Coumty has at the present time- ' ^ The town of Moiria was - during thiri time represented on the Board of iSuipervisors by the late Dr. Ettsiha A. Huist. The town under the pro- gram, had built the road leading sleuth to Dickinson Center \ and the tnoad from Moim station to the , St. 'Lawrence County line. The Board of Supervisors at that time certainly undertook a rntairranoth poject \\and their wisdom and^forosrfght paved the way for the good roads we have to- day* At present there are approxi- mately 220 miles of County highway in Fanklin County and the Mgbiway departrnent expends over $300,000- .00 annually in mfaintenanse • and new cofltrtictioh.
