THE WAY.

To have good roads in Cobb county it
will take money, just the same as it
takes money to build railroads. You
can't have them any other way Rainy
weather always makes bad roads, for
water will inevitably soften dirt. Dirt
roads will get muddy when vehicles
travel over them and cut holes in them.
Railroads have landslides in rainy
weather, washouts and wrecks and
have trouble, just the same as we do
with public roads; but railroads have
money and keep everlastingly at work
spending it, repairing their tracks and
road beds; bat the railroads earn
money to do it with. You can't get
something for nothing. To get maca-
denied roads in Cobb county you will
have to spend money to get them and
then spend money to keep them that
way, for there will be freshets and
washouts. Now get the money to do
it, and do It'll

SELLING OF THE STATE ROAD.

At the last Board of Trade meeting,
President NJ. NJ. Sessions advocated the
selling of the state road, that the coun-
ties through which it runs might have
the benefit of the taxes which necessa-
rily would be paid by a corporation
owning it. He said that the road was
not worth now more than eight million
dollars, whereas when it vas leased it
was worth twelve millions. This de-
probation of four millions was brought
about by the other roads paralleling and
tapping it. The Southern road touched
it at Dalton, the A. K. & n, now the
Louisville & Nashville, was running
into Atlanta, and the S. A. l.. will soon
have a new line taking off traffic from
this point, and it. behooved the state,
unless she was going into the railroad
business and extend her lines, to sell
the w. & A r. K. at once. As it was
now the lessees would not aid aor en-
courage the building of any factories or
enterprises on this line of the road be-
cause they were not the owners, but
based their encouraging influence by
insisting that such enterprises be built
north of Chattanooga on the l.. Il n.
lines, whereas if they were the owners
of the state road they would aid their
construction in this section of the state.

a Question of Party Lines.

Henderson N c., April 23.-Last night
the court house was crowded with the
good people of our town pursuant to a
call of Chairman R. S. Mccain, at the re-
quest of a large number of Democrats,
for the purpose of discussing town gov
eminent.
Above ninety per cent of the voters in
Henderson are Democrats and most OF
the aspirants for office in the May cleo
ton are Democrats and all of them are
good men.
There are many important questions OF
street improvements and sewerage to con-
front the coming board of aldermen and
the Importance of electing good men is
recognized by all.
For this reason many thought it best
to draw the party line and nominate a
strictly Democratic ticket while Others
thought it best to let all good men run
for office and the people rather than a
party select their choice.
The debate on this subject lasted until
ten o'clock before the question was put
to the house there was a motion to
adjourn and so it ended and as yet 70
party lines are drawn.
