A Senator like every other citizen,
has "a right to discuss the question

any changes in the Constitution
would be unwise; but that is very

wealth. Trusts syndicates, railroads
and other great corporations would
have less influence over the whole

of politicians, hungry for office and
perquisites, collected together in the
legislative halls, where all kinds of
disreputable dickering has grown so

no method better than popular cleo

This moving up the river caused our friend John Kittrell a great deal of uneasiness and Cras Buchanan was continually going on about the ''niggers."
 Along the shore we passed such places as Two Years From Now and Miss Nancy smiled and the headfreman got his kodak.
 We passed a place called May Be and the number of encourag- ing looks were numerous.
 Sometime after supper, we decided to stop for the night. Cras Buchanan and John Kittren anchored Disappointment" and all was safe. During the night, many strange dreams were dreamed and as Miss Nancy could not sleep on "Dissa- pointment, she could hear the wild expressions of the dream sters. Among them we could hear were:
 Cracl-sculled, brainless dem agogue. ; I've got nothing to say for Mir. Amerine nor against MT. Billingslea. Pigs and puppies. Corn medicine. !" Warm his seat. :" He ringster. :" Rabbit crossed my path and l hadn t time to spit in his track. /" Monroe county" Ed ,. Carl Lee and his whole family" Hair pins and butter.' Pumpkins and eggs, "Raechel give dem gentlemen eggs bienty." T pay no more attention to Kramer than I would dog" Three thousand dollars" Martin Junction" Quorum court. !" Democratic cloak" "Mantel of Democracy" etc.
 Considering the dreamers de- meanor on the dreamers stand one would naturally come to the conclusion that something fear ful hung over them.
 The next morning Miss Nancy began to tell the dreams she had heard during the night. And as she began to tell them before breakfast and the crew fearing such tom-foolery might come to pass, the crew decided to make Miss Nancy take to the woods. Consequently this narration

UP SALT RIVER ON STEAMER
DISAPPOINTMENT

On last Wednesday the Steam CT Disappointment began it's journey up Salt River with a most excellent crew.
 About seven o'clock in the morning, we noticed Maj. Stan ley shoveling in the coal in order to get a good headwav of steam.
 We saw Hamblet Dale and T. Eek Simpson cooking breakfast to a "fare-you-well, ," we saw Mr. A. J. Black surveying the wash ing of the dishes and Harry Amerine and Chas. Anderson setting the table.
 J. F. Gardner and Dr. High tower were carrying water for the crew, but every now and then the pr. would stop to argue the case.
 Messrs. Kittrell and Carl-Lee sat in one corner continually fus- sing about some imaginary Irish man; Mir. Penrose had charge of the pigs and puppies; Col. Mills was called in to help the Major in keeping up steam. It fell to Miss Nancy's lot to pilot Disappointment" on this occa- sion.
 Just before starting, the entire crew took it's place at the table and after the head fireman had given thanks for the comforts of life, a sumptuous breakfast was indulged in. After the feast, Capt. Alex Jones called out all aboard" for the head waters of Salt River. Miss Nancy rang the dong for the engineer Ed s. Carl-Lee to turn on the steam and allow Disappointment" to steam up the river.

stops as they would not allow me to continue my journey. As Disappointment" moved away, we saw Col. Penrose in the pilot house and we have often wonder ed since who is taking care of the pigs and puppies, but pre- sumes MT. Kittrell is watching after them. We shall try to obtain the narration of the re- mainder of the Salt River expe- dition when they return. So trusting they will have an en- ioyable trip we remain,

MIR. PARKER'S SPEECH.
The chairman then introduced Mr. T.
B. Parker, of Hillsboro. Secretary of the
Farmers Association, who spoke upon
the relation of good roads to farming
Mr. Parker said that North Carolina q
farmers had interests that should be
nursed, as we'll as the Industries of the
State. We need 10 be a new set OF farm
ers, business farmers, to keep up with
the requirements of the times, said he.
You have heard Capt Alexanders ac-
count of Mecklenbrg roads after the
war II he had substituted Orange coun-
ty in 1902, he would have given you a
good description of my county and OF
many others in different parts CT the
State"
This movement means more than sim
Fle ROAD Improvement, it means social
intercourse, and we all know how bene-
fetal that Is especially to the farmers
Mr.. Parker referred to the A. and NJ
boys as one of the great hopes or the
State and paid them Il handsome COM
pliment.
Good roads would mean, too that the
people could go to church in large num-
bers, and the children could get TO school.
In addition to all Of this, the speaker
called attention to the commercial side
OF the question, and gave many inter
,sting facts and figures on this phase of
the question.
He brought ont strongly the point that
the railroads had brought the farmers
OF the great West in competition with
cur farmers, ana that was an additional
reason why good roads were necessary.
lie dwelt upon the rural free deliveries
being made possible by good roads, en-
aoling the farmers to get the newspapers
every day, and thus make them infiuen-
tinl because of the information they can
gain thus giving them an interest in the
outside world, and Installing the spirit
Of progressiveness in them.
Mr. Parker agreed with Senator But
Ter in thinking that We ought to have
national aid.
2Ir. Parker closed by urging the ne
cessity Of organizing IN every county
and showing the people the necessity of
good roads and getting them interested
in the question. .
