TRUSTEE OPPOSED TO IMPROVEMENT .... fc Mason Against Bettering National Road Through Jackson Township.

A strong sentiment in favor of improving the National road through Jackson township, is developing in Dublin, Mt. Auburn, Cambridge City, East Germantown and Pennville. The road should it be improved would take care of the main streets of these towns without much cost to the residents. Trustee M. E.. Mason is much opposed to the road and has thus far been able to prevent its going through. It runs six miles through the township and would necessitate the circulation of two petitions to nave it improved under the three mile road law, unless it should be endorsed at a spec- , lal election, in wftfch case the entire plx miles could be sold in one contract. The main objection to the road is ;that the T. H. I. and E. traction line Is built upon the right of way and the road cannot be made sufficiently wide to warrant the expense of making it a high class thoroughfare.
