Wexford county adopted the county road 

 system on April 6. The commissioners named 

 are Charles E. Hayes, of Cadillac; T. E. Stan- 

 clift, of Boon township, and Fred Usewick, of 

 Antioch township. 



That Wexford county is very much in earn- 

 est in favor of the system is proved by the fact 

 that the county gave the proposition a ma- 

 jority of 1,054 votes. The total number of 

 votes for it was 2,173, and against it 1,119. 

 Cadillac City gave it a big majority, 967. 



Grand Ledge and one township voted April 6 

 not to. adopt the good roads district system.
