proyement. and not any improved roads.
Our roads are in bad condition. think the
people are about divided as to improve
ment of roads by taxation. | think there
is a great necessity for improvements on
our roads, and I hope the day is not

The news & observer., 1902-02-09

There has been no special tax levied
in our county for road Improvement.
The condition of the public roads in
many sections of the county is exceed
ingly bad.
The sentiment in favor of special tax
for building better roads is not yet very
strong but is growing rapidly, from the
fact that the present condition of the
roads very forcibly brings the good roads
problem before the people and they are
beginning to realize the great necessity
of better roads. We greatly need and
must have a better system for building
good roads, as it is evident that the
present system. to a great degree, is
failure
We need and desire more rural mail
routes but cannot expect to acquire them
While the roads remain in the present
condition.
1t seems to me the best plan to solve
the road problem is to levy special tax
for Improvement.

First. No. The roads of the county

tbey were In worse condition than when
worked the old way. So the people had

One way to help very much would be
for each person TO keep the road in good
order by his farm. The benefits OF good
roads would well pay for the time. An
other way would be TO have a special tax

No special tax has been levied for roads
in this county that has come to my
knowledge, and there has been no im-
provement made on the roads. The roads
in this portion of the county are worse
almost than none at all. / am highly IN
favor of some system by taxation or
otherwise to improve the roads. Would
not like to have burdensome tax. but
something must be done to have better
highways. Everybody is wishing some
thing to have a fine system of roads.

will see such law in this State.

among whom the successor of Count Won BuIow
as Chancellor OF the empire is likely TO be
chosen. But only three need be taken into con-
sideratiOn. For that of the fOurth-namely
Prince Herbert Bismarck-is so distasteful TO
the Emperor that one cannot conceive of the
latter appointing him To the office which was
first held by his father. the so-calIed Iron
Chancellor" True. William is always exceed
ingly friendly in his manner toward Herbert
Bismarck especially i'm public-and invariably
addresses him with the familiar prOnoun "du'
Uhou)- But the prince is not very responsive
Indeed. there many who do not hesitate to
assert that his behavior toward the Emperor is
lacking in the Difference and respect due To his
sovereign. and that he fails To conceal the fact
that he stiu harbors feelings If rancor against
the Kaiser in connection with the latter's treat
ment of his father. People have. in fact, some
times asked how it was that so high spirited
and imperious "a man as the Emperor could
have the patience to tolerate without resent
meut tho bearing of the prince and his chilly
Indifference To the formers amiable advances.
Tn reason is probably that the Kaiser is
clever enough 10 realize that the Bismarck cult
still remains alive in many parts Of Germany
that there are millions of Germans who con-
tinue regard the late otto Won Bismarck as
the real creator of the German Empire and as
the author of its grandeur, and who are dis
posed To blame Emperor William for having
failed To- recognize how much he and the mem
hers Of his house indebted To the great
stat, Snan. Any display OF enmity toward
Prince Herbert Bismarck would tend to ac-
'entuota this popular feeling. whereas mani
t"stat"ns of friendship toward the son are
calculated To cause the admirers of the father
TO forget the way in which he was turned out
of office and kept alOof from public affairs until
the day of his DEATH Prince Herbert Bismarck
is therefore never likely 10 be Chancellor Of
the German Empire long as the Kaiser lives
for one cannot conceive of the two working in
unison. or Of the prince deferrinG TO his rulers
