The eommissioners’ court was in ses-
sion Tuesday and considerable business
was transacted. Dr. R. L Harris was
re-elected county health officer. Numer-
oua accounts were allowed. Commis-
sioner Dillard waa appointed to make a
map of the Meridian Road through
Johnson county and to present it to the
Texas State Highway Commission at
Austin . Thia ia th* thoroughfare for
which financial aid is to be asked.
An order was passed authorizing the
doors to toilets in the basement of the
courthouse be cut down, so as to make
it rather difficult for certain me* to
undress in the toilets and wad their
clothes into basins, cutting the water
off. Some also drink whiskey in the
toilets and put empty bottles into the
basins. It is believed that to cut the
door* off it will make the people more
careful of the county ’• property. The
county is to vigorously prosecute any-
one who defaces the county’s property.
