der and he entered into contractwith the court to complete thework according to the plans a ndHpccifications by November 1

ble one of the Justices movedtho court to allow 85058 for tIll
workIhim what tho extra 100

Hreathitt county out of any money
not otherwise appropriatedIt has been the custom for years
in this county to cuss time County
Judge for everything that wentwrong but it is tho Justices of
the peace that vote away yourmoney This is not the only timein the past year that some of thopCbples money has been voted
away over the protests of theCounty Judge anti County Attor ¬
nayThe County Judge can not vote
on any claim in the Fiscal Qourtonly in case of a tie and that very
