"The Greater Georgia movement
seems to be drifting in the direction of
better roads. If this is true then the
movement will have more than fulfilled
the expectations of It's friends. The
greatest need in Georgia today is good
roads. One reason why it was pro-
posed to change the convict law was to
give the state the benefit of convict Ia
Dor, which has been expended upon
mines and railroads, in developing
good system of dirt roads There
have been good roads conventions and
object lessons of all sorts in this line.
There are now propositions that each
county use its conyicts upon its own
roads, or that it be empowered to rent
them out to other counties which have
adopted this system of perfecting its
highways. We can think of nothing
better than good roads for the Greater
Georgia movement. 1t is aworthy OBJ
iect, and instead of dissipating the en-
ergy of the movement in other direc-
tions it might be well to direct it in this
channel. If the movement were to sin
gle out one object it might hope to
make decided impression upon that
before it has expended its force. Il
the convention or conference in Macon
will call attention to this matter and
direct some change in the convict laws
of the state so that this work could be
made available in the different counties
a good beginning would be made.

that the Confederate Veterans reunion
at New Orleans will beput on the black

demanded of the veterans committee
arranging for the reunion that only
union bands be employed to play in
the parade. The committee replied
that it did not feel justified in discrim-

labor or artists. The union bands

anything to do with the parade and

troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
