GOOD ROADS.

The regular quarterly meeting of the
County Good Roads Association
has been called. Senator Latimer,
Congressman Aiken and President
Hyatt have been invited to be present
and make speeches. This is good.
Keep up the agitation, but what we
need most Of all just now is for the
Supervisor or some one to take charge
Of the good roads machinery and chain
gang and build few miles of good
roads and let our people see with their
own eyes and travel over what we call
good roads. That would be the strong
est argument we could present in favor
of spending moaey on this work.
Mr. Latmcr' plan is to got national
aid and he says he thinks such a bin
will pass Congress- If it does, then we
will have to issue bonds to be able to
get any Of the money to amount to
anything. II we would take the means
we now have and supplement with a
small tax Of one or two mills and use
tins money exclusively on roads and
use it wisely and judciously, in a very
few years we would have great i'm
provemcnts in the public highways of
the county But if we continue for a
few years more as we have been doing
there will be several months in the year
when transportation through the
rural districts will have to be sus-
pended on account Of the condition of
the public roads, and the rural delivery
of the mail will be curtailcd. Some
thing must be done, but we want a
practicable plan and we want to arouse
public sentiment to the point where it
can be convinced that the expenditure
Of money for this purpose is wise and
that it will give bigger returns to the
taxpayer than any other tax that he
pays and that the benefits will be di-

impression that only accredited dele
gates will be admitted to seats and voices

bercd that it was on this point that all
discussion was had in the first meeting
and we finally decided that representa-

the county come to the next meeting an

$8, 600 has been expended and assist
ancc has been given all who are in need
Of help. The relief committee states
that about 500 has been given each

a small sum for family who lost every
thing, and in addition to employment.
The committee has been giving help tc
some farmers who suffered. Farmers
in other sections also suffered heavily.

we hope in that spirit which looks to
the public veal. There has not been
