WASHINGTON Post. !

Our esteemed contemporary the
New York Tribune, thus moralizes
upon one CT the most important ques-
tions of the day:
" Bad roads, as we have said, are an
evil Of all the year round. The remedy
for them must be applied, in greater
or less degree, all the year round.
Good roads, that is to say, need con-
slant attention TO keep them good.
But making them good is task that
can best be performed at certain fixed
seasons, and those are exactly the
seasons at which the average farmer
can least we'll arrange to do the work
They are the seasons when he is busiest
on his farm, and when for him even
to go out with plow and scraper and
work out his road tax means to
neglect his crops. But all the plowing
and scraplng in the world cannot
make good road, and to ask the
farmer to do more, TO enter upon the
work of grading and draining and
macadamizlng, is to ask a practical
impossibili,y.
Just here, however, is where one
great advantage of convict labor on
the roads becomes evident. The
inmates Of the State prisons have no
other duties to perform than those
they may be set at. They can be put
at work upon the roads at just the best
possible time for road building, and SO

tlons, TO the negroes. The gregarlous
instinct is strong in man and he rebels
against the dr.ary winter months Of
imprisonment by mud, and his total
segregation from all human sympathy
and intercourse Nowhere in the
world are good roads needed more
than at the South. Nowhere would
the construction and effective main
tenance of good roads exert So beneh-
cent an influence upon the moral and
material welfare Of the people. Every
word the Tribune says concerning the
Norm in this connection applies with
tea,olu eloquence to the South. If
the States in that section would employ
their ConvlCts to build ard keep in
repair the public roads, instead Of
leasing them to contractors to work in
competition with free labor, 1t would
be better for the taxpayers, the con
victs, and society at large. 1t would
usher in new dispensatlon of agrlcul-
tural prosperity throughout the section.

Saws His Visit Was a Revelation
(GOldSbOrO Argus. |

The. Southern papers speak in high
terms Of the report made to the New
England cotton mill people by Mr..
Arnold Sanford, who recently made a
trip through the South, visiting the
Southern mills. He confesses that his
visit was revelation to him. 1t Is
evident that he used his eyes and ears
while on his tour of inspection, and he
tells his people that in the Southern
mills they have competition that is
hard to meet. Mr.. Sanford is himself
a cotton mill owner at Fall River,
Mass. He recently spent few days
in Goldsboro as the guest Of his cousin,
MIR. F. B. Borden.

can do the work to the best possible
advantage. They can also be set at
work on them at any time, to repair
them, and be kept at 1t as long as
may be necessary, without IN the
slightest degree interfering with ordi-
nary agricultural or other industry.
When to this 1t is added that road
making is work which all able bodied
men can do, whether skilled or
unskilleu, and that it is just such
wholesome, variegated, out-of- doors
work as prisoners most need for mental
and physical health, the argument for
thus employing convcts seems we'll
nigh unanswerable. y
For years past we have been indus
triously advocating this idea. 1t has
always seemed to US that State con-
victs could in no other way be employed
so usefully as in road making. We
have not thought 1t quite talr TO honest
laboring men to subject them to the
competition of convlcts, neither has It
seemed merCiiul to the ConviCts them
selves to refuse 10 them the opportu-
nifty Of wholesome exercise and occu-
patton. Road building, therefore, has
suggested itself to US as being in every
way the best solution of the difficulty.
In this way convlcts can be made TO
| render the most valuable possible
service to the State in this way their
welfare, physical and moral, Will be
most effectuaIly promoted; IN this way
honest labor will be protected against
an injurious and unfair competition.
Whatever may be said IN favor Ui
making, nendlng, and keeping N
repair the roads in Northern States,
can be said with infinitely more force
touching roads in the Southern States.
With the exception Of Tennessee and
kentucky and certain scattering dis
tricts in the richer planting States, il
may be safely asserted that really good
roads are unknown in the South. Tt
this fact We ascrlbe the low price o
Southern agricultural lands, the ten
dency Of intelligent and cultivated
people to the cities and the practlca
abandonment Of the farms and planta

THE POWER OF SONG.
Song Can Cheer the Hopeless as
Nothing on Earth Can.

Music is the git of God. He Gre
ated the angels at some remote period
IN the past and then gave them the
power of song. O. who Of US would
not be glad to slip aside the curtains
OF glory and hear the angels sing, as
they step upon the rostrum of the
skies by the throne of God and from
their music making lips roll the
sweet strains OF that sublime chorus,
"Worthy IS the lamb that was slain"
But we cannot hear the angels yet
Still God has bestowed upon men the
same gift of music. Nearly every one
has either the power of making it or
approaching it. So we must be con-
tent On earth with making and re-
celvlng the power Of song, the music
made by the melodious chords of the
human voice. There is power in song.
a song when sweetly and richly
sung by a cultivated voice can gener-
ally move men from the lowest to the
highest emotions that swell in the hui
man heart.
Song can save the lost by leading
them to Jesus. a little girl was sing
ing sweetly:
Pass me not, O, gentle Savior,
Hear my humble cry,
While On others thou art smiling,
DO not pass me by
\ wicked old man was passing by
and on his ears did fall the mellow
music of the singing girl. His heart
was touched, his soul was stirred to pen
tience and he cried from his quivering
lips, pass me not, O, gentle Savior,
Hear my humble cry And thus
many soul has heard the voice of Ie-
sus whispering to him in the sweet
notes of some gospel song.
Song can SOOthe the weary. How
often when we are out upon the desert
Of consuming toll, do we hear the
voice Of some sweet song of Consola
ton which foods our soul with bliss
tul waves OF rest and peace. Such
songs as "'Gherc is rest for the Weary
Jesus, 1--we thy charming Name,'
"From Every Stormy Wind that
Blow>.' have been the wings Of
God to carry many a tolling, tremb
ling soul into the placid haven of rest
and trust.
Song can cheer the hopeless. Moth
ing else on earth has SO much of the
divine power in driving away the
clouds of dependence and bringing
cut the shining stars of hope, as a
hopeful, cheerful, gospel song. Such
songs as 90 Think of the Home Over
There "There's a Land that is fairer
than Day. have been the stars ofhope
to many thousands Of sad and lonely
hearts.
Not until the secrets of time and
we ourselves shall join the angels in
their thrilling songs of glory. snail
we know the lost that were saved,
the sad that were gladdened, the
weary that were soothed, the hope
less who were cheered and the wan
derers reclaimed by the power Of
song.
Sing on, happy Christian, and
never cease to sing men to Jesus; then
when our songs shall fade away upon
the breezes of time, they will leave
their gentle echo in the hearts of men
and when touched by the tuning fork
of eternity shall float upon the Tranquil
air of Heaven, till they wrap the cycle:
of the ages in the mellow waves O.
song and praise.
