SPEAKING OE ROADS.

The Brookneal Sentinel. published
ut BroOkneal, Va, comments on IN
editorial on good roads, which recent
~ appeared in the News:
In another colume we reprint an
article from the Clinch Valley News,
of Tazewell, this state, that about
sizes up the road question and puts
the responsibility for the continuance
of the present deplOrable condition
Of the public roads of the State where
il rightly belongs. 1t is a noteworthy
fact that though the country repre-
sentatiVes in NE State Legislature are
largely in the majority they have not
been able 10 come together in all the
years in favor OF feasible and
practical plain for the betterment of
The country road, and the conclusion
OF our contemporary that really
do not want them seems irresistible.
If they want them they they can
have them and there is nothing to
prevent; but they cannot have them
until they want them bad enough to
pay for them. That's the situation
in nutshell.

THE PAYMENT OF POLL TAXES

In another column we publish an
article from Senator Machen, of Alex
andria, on the necessity of laws to
guard the personal payment OF poll
taxes. The article is timely and should
be needed by the next Legislature.
Senator Machen was diligent last SEES
sion TO have such laws enacted, but
failed. The Legislature should define a
personal payment and under heavy
penalty require county treasures 10
live up TO it everywhere After personal
payment is defined a treasurer should
be required 10 make affidavit that
such taxes were so paid. AS the law
now stands, there is no penalty at
tacned and too many treasurers are
loose in accepting poll tax under
fllmsy representations. We hoPe the
next Legislature will pass a strict law
governing personal payment or else
the present mode Of payment will
grow into great abuse

If other individuals or private inter

Ii is matter of common knowledge
and of common shame that many So
called public servants are the mere
tool and puppets OF special interests.
The Legislature can do much to
purify the ballot I'm this state and il
should, To that end, enact fair and
effective law i'm regard To thepayment
of poll taxes. The independent and
unpurchsable press OF the State can
do much by the exposure and con-
demnation of wrong practices, but
the people can do most of all by
visiting sure and humilating defeat
on every candidae who employs cor
rupt means When crooked politics
cease TO be successful they will
cease altogether, and not before,

Does Not Think Thirteen I'm
lucky

Friends of the Blackstone Institute
do not think thirteen TO be an I'M
lucky number. The thirteenth session
of the school has just closed, and il
was the most prosperous in the his
tory of the school in every way. The
enrolment was 39I, the largest in the
history of the school. The senior
class numbered fifty the largest in
the history of the school. Gifts TO
the institution have amounted To
neary$i50, 90, the largest in the history
of the school in any one year.
The religious work has greatly pros
pered. During this year the Institute
in union with the Backbone Church
has sent out its own representative to
work in the mission fields OF Japan.
The facts clearly demontrate that
there is nothing in the unlucky num-
Der thirteen superstition except the
imagination of the observer.

We live in an age in which noise
and clattter are the measure of
worth. All the works ofman~ are
characterized by clangor and roar, and
il has become universal idea that
noises is synonym of strength.
But this is IN take. 1t is the quie
worker that succeeds-the still hunt
is the best. The sun shines in silence,
breaking winters icy barriers as
with breath; the earth flies through
space in silence, mighty trees grow
without noise, and in nature silence
is assight of power. When looked al
in this light, noise can have but the
reverse significance. -Dayis.

Of the Florida Everglades and Of

fora and the Everglades about them
by many northern plants Of q wholly
different character. DR.. Small thinks
that the Everglades were formerly Gov

the islands acquired their tropical
plants. Afterward the sea bottom
slowly rose, and the plants Of PENN

Pawned Coat for Two Dollars.

Several months ago a well dressed
woman got 81 loan from a pawn
broker on a fur coat. The lender
packed the coat away and thought
but little of it. At the sale of re-

belonged, sat up and rubbed his

that coat is worth $500 to some one

he did, and later took it to furrier,
where he had it appraised.

Just as we predicted last week on
learning of the resignation of Judge
James Aldrich, there will be a lively
scramble for the position of judge of
the second circuit. Solicitor Jas. E.
Davis, of Barnwell, is squarely in the
race, while Robt. Adrich, Senator
Geo. 81. Bates, and B. T. Rice, all Of
Barnwell, are considering the mat
ter. Claude E. Sawyer, of Aiken,
is also probable candidate. The
Herald has no candidate so far, and
may not have one. The entries are
not closed, however, and it may be
that some good lawyer of the Bam-
berg bar will offer.
