GOOD ROADS.

In advocacy Of the building OF good
roads it is useless to argue the many
advantages to be derived therefrom.
The ben. fits are SO marked and GER
tain that the only question in con-
neetion with the proposition is the
method of attaining them. ls is,
therefore. very much to be hoped
that the m, citing in Dthville III the
interest OF good roads will not only
arouse interest in the matter, but
that some practical suggestions will
be made upon which the legislature
aud the people will act. 1t is i'm
peratiye that Virginia should, If she is
TO keep abreast OF the progress OF the
times, begin at once to improve her
highways. Other States are engaged
10 road improvement all around Us,
and if we are to get our snare OF de-
sirable immigration, il We are 20 en-
Joy the prosperity to which we are
entitled and which other States are
enjoying, we must do as they have
done. 1t is no use to stand back Tor
the costs attached to it. II we wait
until we feel able financially TO build
new roads it will never be done.
Every dollar expended for road i'm
proyement will return four-fOld TO
the people. We know without DEM
onstratiOn the advantages OF good
roads; experience of Others is before
us to point to the methods and
means, and really all that is lacking,
it would seem, is 80 arouse the in
terest of the people 10 their own
needs to such an extent that they
will take hold of tie matter. 1t is
safe to predict thas once she work is
begun and all the advantages come
home to the people, it will be pushed
until our roads will compare favor
ably with those OF any other State.

Coal Oil Stove Exploded.

A coal oil stove was left burning in
the butcher shop Tuesday night to
thaw out some frozen meat, and some
time dnring the night it exploded,
and il is n miracle how the inside Of
the building did not catch on fire.
No doubt it would have been a serious
cenhagration had the fire received
ventilation. As il was, Mr.. S.arrett
on opening up yesterday morning,
found the building filled with a dense
smudge, the sides Of the white plaster
ell walls being blackene |, as though
they had received a coat of black
paint. A great deal of the plaster
was tori away i'll places by the force
of the explosion. 1t vas a narrow es-
cape from being a serious conflagra-
ton and had it come TO this it would
have been a repetition of the big fire
OF only a few years ago. As it is the
damage to the shop is no great
amount.
Everybody should be very careful,
with their stoves and lamps, especially
at this time of the year.
