The Daily Leader.
The Daily Leader begins its
eighth year in this good month
of March 1911. For seven years
it has made its appearance six
days of the week with great reg-
ularity, only having missed a few
issues on holidays and similar
occasions. It will continue to
appear with that same regularity,
and we will appreciate your or-
ders to have it left at your home
or business place, or for any ad-
vertising which you may desire
to quickly place before the peo-
ple of the city. It covers this
field like the morning dew or the
noonday sun. The regular ad-
vertisers are the people who suc-
ceed.

Road Work and Road Hands.
The names of/ the public road
overseers as appointed by the
commissioners court. at the term
which adjourned Saturday of
last week, appear elsewhere in
this issue.
In,addition to the hands as-
signed to these forty-five road-
overseers there are some 150 or
more men who are liable to work
the roads of the county for three
days on account of their failure
to procure a poll tax receipt for
the year 1910. A list of these
names has been furnished to each
road overseer in the county, with
instructions “to work them on
the road in accordance with Sec-
tion 15 of the Lampasas county
road law for three days, if living
in your road precinct, if in the
city of Lampasas, then on the
road nearest their places of resi-
dence. Overseers will give these
hands a receipt showing that
they have worked the three days
required by law when they have
so served.”
As all who are between the
ages of 21 and 45 are liable to
work the road, it is supposed
that those who have not paid
their poll tax for 1910, must work
three additional days. It will be
noticed that the “city dwellers”
who have no poll tax receipt are
also provided for and overseers
will warn them out “on the roads
nearest their places of residence.”
There are at least one hundred
and fifty in this county who have
not paid this poll tax, and four
hundred and fifty days work un-
der a competent road overseer
would make a wonderful im-
provement in the roads of the
county.
The road law is quite clear in
this matter of working men who
fail, neglet or refuse to pay their
poll tax, and a recent decision
by the court of criminal appeals
upholds the law and sustains a
penalty assessed against individ-
uals-who. refuse to obey the sum-
nuon&^of_ a road overseer. De-
linquents had as well get ready
