Guilford county people are determin-
ed to have good roads and want them
as soon as possible. The authorities
have forty convicts and three hundred
and sixty free laborers employed on
this work in three different sections
of the county. Three hundred thou
sand dollars. We believe. is the sum
the county has voted to raise by a
bond issue for this permanent i'm
provement. 1t wont take long for the
county to get this money back through
increased value Of real estate, the null
tiplying of the productive farms and
the bringing Of these farms into

TRAIN wREckER CAPTURED
Miraculous Escape From Fearful
Disaster.

ReidsviIIe. y. c.. March 2s.-Eight
lSouthern Railway detectives were
here the entire past week n sue
tive work. One Of the detectives, a ne
lgro, applied to the Penn Tobacco Com
Ipany for work, stating the fac that
he was a detective. and that he thought
THAT the man lie wanted perhaps might
ibe in that factory. He was given a
Ipositien and went to work in the room
where the negroes are employed. Sat
Iurday he gave UP his position, stating
THAT he had obtained all the informa-
Ition desired. The detective then ar
lrested Will Hammond. who confded in

Though the train ran some distance af-
ter the obstacle was encountered,
damage was fortunately averted.

arrest of Hammond. against whom, il
they nave a perfect case.
Hammond has the reputation of being
la very bad negro, and the detectives
lWere warned by Reidsville parties
against Hammond as to their personal
safety in making the Investigations.
The spot where Hammond had Sc
lected to wreck the train is one of the
Imost dangerous on the entire line of
the Southern. 1t is just on the out
Iskirts Of town, and at times trains
IsWing around this curve, on the very
ledge of a precipice, fitting so far over
THAT passengers close their eyes and

Ia little more thought he would GER
Itainly have succeeded in his bastard
lly attempt. AS it was. it is a miracle
THAT the train did not leave the track

ling to death every passenger on the
heavily loaded train.
Hammond confided to the detective
THAT some time ago a fireman on one

THE SHIP SUBSIDY BILL.

The house of representatives has a
the way the latter treated it's statehood
and Philippine tariff bills, and it looks
like Speaker Cannon is going to See
to it that it takes advantage of the
opportunity. This is in regard to the
ship subsidy bill. This is a pet scheme
of some of the leading republican
senators. They got the bill through
their house and sent it over to the rep
resentatives. where it has hung fire
ever since-pigeon-holed by the COM
mittee on merchant marine and fish
cries, with no prospect of it's being
brought forth during the present ses-
sion. If it cannot get a hearing at
this, the long session. there will hard
ly be time to act upon it during the
second and so it will all have to be
the next congress
A delegation of those members of
the house who favor the bill has
waited upon the speaker for the pur-
pose of urging that he allow the bill
to be reported and be taken up, but
it got no encouragement from him.
1t is said the committee is evenly d.
vided on the bill and that a favorable
report on it cannot be made. In the
meantime fho cOmuoittoe hoe fvod an
other date for further hearing on the
bill. This is understood by friends Of
the measure to be merely a move for
delay. Without Nj. Cannon's consent
the bill cannot come before the house
at this session.

To Colonel Fred A Odds The Mes
senger extends it's sympathy in The
great affection with which he has been
visited. In the death of his son, Just
entering into manhood, another grief
has been brought to him hard to bear.
While words of coincidence to n in
such sorrow, we know, cannot heal the
wound, still we wish him to know that
thoughts are of him and our feelings
of tenderest sympathy 60 out to him.
While there is sadness and sorrow over
the death of loved ones, still there
comes, after the p%oignancy of the first
suffering, the consoling thought that
to the ones who have gone before
there is escape from all further pain
of body and worry of mind and torture
of soul, and that rest, blessed rest
of us that have given up loved ones
would say they believed the departed
would be willing to have escaped that
translation We call death and to con
tinue the old life of toll and sorrow
and pain in this world? If we ca1
but bring ourselves to realize il we
must know hat they are happier in
their condition than they would be
had their stay on earth been pro
longed.

Roosevelt and congress incorporates

of 1908? 1t looks like Mr.. Jerome
means business in his prosecution of
those connected with the donation of
the New York Life company's funds
to campaign purposes. But really,
we haven't any idea that any n will
be punished Under the indictments he
has started or that this congress will
take any action to prevent railroads or
other big corporations contributing to
republican campaign purposes. The
only effect Of all this stir and fuss will
be to make those who contribute in
the future be more careful in the man

The New Jersey legislature has pass
ed a bill appropriating three hundred
and fifty thousand dollars to be used
in an effort to exterminate the mos
quitoes in that state. 1t is said the
value of much of the land in that.state
would be increased ten dollars an acre
could the mosquitoes be exterminated.
That Asheville man who is looking
for contracts to rid cities of flies
should turn his attention to these
other pests and maybe he might rake
in some of that purse. If the state is
willing TO spend that much money for
this purpose the Jersey skeeter is not
as much a joke as some newspaper
men seem to think it to be.

SENATOR rILLMAN.s BOOK.

Senator TilIman is writing "A De-
Tense Of the Senate" No doubt It viii
be an interesting book. He says he
has greatly changed his opinion OF
that body since he first entered it.
and a great many people throughout
the country have changed their opin-
ion of him. He has a great many
more admirers and friends now than
he had twelve years ago. Really the
senator has changed much in that
time. He has broadened and he has
learned much. The senate has been
a good school for him, as it has been
for many others of that body. Many
of the rough corners have been worn
off. him by constant friction with
leading politicians and statesmen, and
some of them have been broken off
by hard knocks, bringing TO light his
horse-sense and developing qualities
which enable him TO make better use
Of his natural ability. His term Of
office will expire in March Of next
year. The legislature to be elected
mex fall will choose a senator for the
succeeding term. The senator, of
course will be in the fight for re-elec-
ton, and will be most ure to win.
