There is no one thing so important
to our county and State as the question
of road improvement. Under our pres
emit system we can never have more
than makeshifts in the way of public
roads. We would be glad to see the
city of Newberry take the four leading
roads from the court house and build
them out from that point about two
miles in each direction as they should
be as object lessons, and it would not
be long before the people of the county
would demand that these be extended
throughout the county. The only way
to do it is by the contract system. The
county OF Mecklenberg in North Caro-
lima levies a road tax of 18 cents On the
500 and in addition to this each town
ship levies road tax of cents On the
$lO0. and some of the townships levy
special road tax of Is cents on the 800.
It is the best investment these town
ships can make. If we are to have
good roads we must expect to pay for
them, but it is money economically
and wisely spent. Mecklenberg county
has about 100 miles Of macadamized
roads and some of these roads cost as
nnch as from $2,7O0 to $4,000. They
are now building the same roads st a
cost of 81 800 to $500 per mile, and
the more they build, the greater the
demand is. We should start in this
county at once.

The State convention meets tomor-
row and the politicians and candidates
will HE themselves to the capital
There is not much for the convention
to do. A platform will be adopted and
we suppose Senator Tillman will en-
deavor to get his views endorsed as to
the modification of the oath to be taken.
It is true that no one but a Democrat
should vote in a Democratic primary
and certainly no one but Democrat
should ask the suffrages of Democrats,
but we are not in favor of making the
requirements too strict or straight
laced. The purpose Of the primary sys-
tenn, it seems to US, will be subserVed
by letting the pledge stand very much
as it is. to abide the esult and support
the nominees. Take our own State.
We remember that one OF the leading
blanks in the platform has been an en-
dorsement of the dispensary system and
yet many Democrats have not only not
endorsed it but have continued to tght
it. Some of these same people are no"
demanding that the pledge be amended
so as TO include an endorsement OF the
platform without knowing what the
platform Is to be. Suppose the dlspen
sary is endorsed in the platform, what
will they do? A few years ago the
leaders in our State condemned the
national platform OF the party and Wen'
so far as to pass resolutions in State
Democratic convention condemnlng
Democratic president. 1t is not our
purpose to discuss this phase OF
the question. We want to say ina
while we discuss this matter We
should not forget the past and that al
we view our primary, it is more to gel
the choice of the white men OF the State
In the selection of officers than to olno
: all the voters to the planks OF a plat
form, and in our judgment the best
% results will be Obtained by letting the
voters have some latitude in voting
That they are qualified electors anc
entitled to vote and will abide the re
suit and support the nominees Of the
party is sufficient pledge. Some o.
those who are clamoring for an addi
tional pledge did not even keep the
pledge we now have in days gone by.

Speaking of the pledge in the pri

mary the Charleston Post asks:
Shall the convention confine its de-
clarations to national issues and make
no enunciation upon matters OF local
State concern? If not will the dispen-
sary principle be reafirmed as it has
been by so many conventions! And
finally If it is will no candidate be per-
Z mitted to enter the race unless he sub
scribes to this principle? That would
make rather awkward state OF afalrs
for The State and The Evening Post
and others who are opposed to the dis
pensary system, and yet it ls quite the
logical outcome of the course urged oy
The State.
That is the point upon which we
would like to have light. II you are
going to require voters and candidates
TO pledge unwavering support OF plat
forms, just as well require them to
support the dispensary system, if
put in the platform, as tariff, anti
Imperialism, or free silver, 16 to /;
and would the editor of The State sup
] port the dispensary system If it should
be put in the Democratic plstform!
We should be fair and impartial in our
efforts to bind others.
Since writing the above we have
seen the reply of the State, in which
that newspaper holds that the mainte-
nance of the dispensasEs5ssem is a
"policy," while -*fmperialism, trusts
and tariff" are "principles." 1t sp-
pears to US as if the editor Of the State
has made distinction without differ
ence. However, we suppose he wants
to play the role of dictator, as usual,
and pledge candidates and voters to
support those planks in the platform
which are in accordance with his
views, styling these ''princip1es," and
those with which he does not agree
why, simply pass these over with ST.
lent contempt, so far as the pledge is
concerned, calling them 'spolicies."
