The CRY for better roads comes up
from all over the State. Virginia
has 50 far recovered from the rayages
of war, that she can now undertake
this great improvement. The time
has come when this question can and
should be Systematically studied and
treated. The systems successfully
operated il other sections Of the
country, should be put before the
people by the county newspapers and
public press. It's matter in which
every member Of the community is
interested-from the bank president
down to the tramp. But a matter of
this kind should not be dealt with
hastily. There viii be general edu-
cation in the matter of good roads,
and when the public Will is ascer-
tanned, the democratic party agrees
to put it into legal operation and eff
feet There Is no agitation of this
important question by the repu blican
spellbinders. Their platform is ST.
lent on this important subject, as it
is in all other vital matters of inter
est TO this great Commonwealth at
this time. The democratic party ad-
vocates good roads, and q vote for
her ticket means q vote for this need

Virginia has always been and will
always be most interested in Agricul-
ture; and Agriculture has always
been and will always be the most
honorable Of all the arts. The care
of agriculture Is peculiarly the duty
of the democratic party. In agricul-
ture success depends upon the thrift,
energy and economy of the individ-
usl, and without favoring laws the
agriculturist cannot be thrifty, eco
nomical or successful. From the
DAYS Of Thomas Jefferson and James
Madison, the democratic party has
favored this important class. Under
the democratic administration of this
State, measures have been recently
adopted for the analysis of fertilizers,
aud the protection CT the farming
class from the impositions Of North
ern manufacturers. This party has
also provided for the holding of
Farmers Institutes, which have prov
en- of great value. The farmers
should bear these facts in mind and
turn out November 9TH.
