A Word to the Public.

We learn from our County Commits
sioners that they are having the public
roads of the county worked out and put
in good condition as rapidly as possible.
They are endeavoring, too, to widen the
roads so that there will be no further
complaint along that line. There are
three classes of public roads provided
for in our statute law, the width of
which are twenty, eighteen and sixteen
feet. In this respect our COmmissi Oners
are trying to comply with the law as far
as practicable.
The commissioners desire also to call
special attention to the farmers along
the public highways not to trespass too
near the public roads, as ample room
must be given the road hands to do
their work in widening the roads. They
along the highways be not disturbed
that is, hauled away.
There are two crews in the county
working the public roads-one on the
eastern side Of the county and the other
on the western side, under tho manage
ment of T.. p. Wood and j. M. Kelley,
road builders. Since they began opera
tions, about six weeks ago, they have

Little River, April 2.-We need help in
this community. We have built a very
decent church, worked many days and
spent some money. We are in debt a
few dollars, but think it will be made up
at the next meeting. We have called
Bro. G. l.. Craig for our pastor. We ran

ceived members. Our preaching days
are the third Sundays. But tho impor-
tant part is yet to come: we ask for bet

We cannot serve God and mammon.
We fear that on last Christmas the evil
one crept in and deceived many. We
need church members who will lay aside
the bottle and all other idols and stand as
a soldier for Jesus Christ. We need men
all over the county elected for trustees
who will solemnly swear that they don't
dram drink nor protect blockaders. We
noticed Cheohee was disturbed on last
Sunday by the dram drinkers.
A new search ought to be made over
The Cheohee' mountains for blockade.
