WAKE COUNTY ROADS.

The Card of DIR. Lewis and one From a
Gentleman who travelled 100 MiI-s in
one day Over These bad Roads.
The News and Observer is having
much to say about the bad condition
of Wake county roads, and is at
tenn otiDg to make the people believe
that up TO year ago they were in
excellent condition. If the roads
were in any kind of good condition
when Mr.. McMackin was removed
from road supervisor ten months ago
they ought not to bs in bad coudi-
ton now. After many years of Dem
ocratic work on the roads 'hey ought
to stand at least ten months Of wear
and tear. The fact, however, is the
public highways of Wake county are
not only in as good condition, but
in many places far better than at
any time previous.
The following communication on
the subj ct is written by DR. r. H.
Lewis. n gentleman bearing a high
christian character, and whose testi-
mopy cannot be questioned
SUPERVISOR RAY AND THE ROADS.
To the f. iitor Post.
desire you to print the following
corr. elton, in part at Last, of the err
roneous impression crea ed by an at
tache Of another Raleigh paper of
Saturday last, in regard to the
amount of work that has been done
on the roads by the new management.
| ask this OF my own motion, simply
because l am so constituted that |
can't sit quiet when word from me
may aid the ca use of Justice. | know
nothing whatever about Rays work
in other parts of the road district,
whether oil his new work has been
confined to the Mrlburnie road or
not; but 1 do know that ever since the
latter half of July he has ben
at work on the Williamson r ,ad.
which joins the old H llsboro road a.
at T., son S store, AID on the latter,
which runs by Edward s mill ont in
to Hou,e's Creek township. At first /
would Ill eet every venipg that went
down at the PREFER hour a squad of
couvlcts-abcut 20 ing
back 10 the camo from beyond my
home, then for two or three we, ks /
would pass the same squad every day
at work grading the road from T.,
SON store to the bill just beyond
Pigeon House branch, and putting
in terra Gotta dram aid for the
/, past two or tbr.e We. ks they have
been usirg about q half deem wag-
) Ons and carts covering the red clay
road with gravel and sand, and tina,
work is nearly finished to the city
limits.
Tue steam roller was put on the
road, but owing to the drvness of the
soil it made 20 impression, and II
was tax II away, to be returned and
used, Ray told me, when use haC
developed the soft places, to rol
them, after Re filling, together with
, the whole road.
Y AS drive over it every day, il
! gives me much pleasure 10 be able t.
D say that the road from town to m!
home in the country, while not per
e feet, by any means, is now yer,
:. nice road-mnch b. tier than it eve1
: has been in my experience-and af
e ter it gets little older it will be still

ALL TREATIES REVIVED.
Paris Peace Commissioners TO Open
Many Subjects.

Paris, Nov. 30.--The secretaries Of
the two peace commissions, Messrs.
Moore and Ojeda, began their Joint
task of formulating the articles OF tue
peace treaty yesterday as directed ny
their respective commissions. Inc
work will be easy and rapid as to Inc
REIMBURSEMENT and cessions REFERRED
to in the protocol, the terms OF which
document will be transferred bodily to
the treaty. The secretaries, moreoveI,
will embody in tentative articles, tor
discussion today the subjects OF the re-
ligious freedom of the Caroline ISLANDS,
a naval station for the United States in
the same group, cable landing rights
in other points within SPANS jurisdic-
tioa, the release OF the nsurrectionist
prisoners, and the revival OF the trea-
ties broken by the war. The CONNER
cial and general treaty OF 1893 will lie
revived to be recast later. The treaty
of 1884, for the settlement OF certain
claims, will be revived, also the treaty
OF 1877, providing for extradition, and
the trade mark treaty of 1882 in addi-
ton to several modus yiyendi agree
ments. 1t Is expected that the secre-
taries will submit the treaty articles at
the joint session today when all other
points for negotiations will be DIS
cussed. Thus the commissions today
will have before them the entire treaty
for amendment. approval or rejection.
On all points outside OF the protocol
this will be friendly negotiation
only, Spain having the right to name
the prices she wants for her territory
and to reject or accept the American
offers.
AS result OF the work Of the secre-
taries, the draft OF the articles en-
bodying the protocol agreements were
completed last evening. II will be pre-
sented to the two commissions this
morning at separate sessions and In
the afternoon at a Joint session when
ii will receive final consideration.
There will be. little delay on these ar
ticles. Moore will also submit today
10 the United States commissioner

spaniards for negotiations. These are
being drafted into the form OF articles.

COLORED PEOPLE LOSE.

Edwardyille, H., Nov. 30,-rhe
celebrated Alton school case was Tues
day decided by jury in the circuit
court adverse to the colored people
who protested against separate
schools. The defense contended that
the colored children OF Alton should
have the same opportunity as the
white children for securing an educa-
ton and that discrimination had been
practiced. The case will go to the
supreme court.
