An Excellent Plea For GOOd Roads.

One of the best arguments we have had brot
to our attention concerning good roads is the
speech made by Hon. John H. Bankhead, of Ala
bama before the United States Senate last month";
Among other things he said;
''Good roads are avenues of progress the best
proof of intelligence; they aid the social and re-
ligious advancement Of the people; they increase
the value of products; they save time, labor, and
money: they are the initial sources of commerce.
which swell in great streams and flow everywhere
distributing the products of our fields forests and
factories The highways are the common property
of the country, their benefits are shared by ALL
and they are needed by ALL they benefit all, and
all should contribute to Them
And after strong arguement before the Senate
Mr. Bankhead concluded us follows
s'The result of road improvement, wherever
tried has been largely to increase the value of farm
land. for the homeseeker prefers to locate where
improved roads provide their many advantages.
Indeed, have been assured that lands have even
doubled and quadrupled in value along and ada
cent to improved dirt roads
eve hear great deal said about the destuc
ton of our timber supply. Mr. President | do
not hesitate to say that, in my opinion, there is
sufficient timber, composed of small tracks, be-
longing to farmers and other landowners, in this
country today, and which is now considered
worthless because of its distance from the railroad
that could be placed on the market were the roads
sufficiently improved, that would supply the tim
Der demand in the United States for seventy five
years. the value of which alone would improve the
dirt roads of this country.

on a question which consider of vital Importance

Jesse E. MerCer.

jesse f. Mercer, editor of the Fitzgerald En-.
terprise, is in Savannah today in the interest
of his candidacy for prison commissioner.
Captain Mercer has friends in Savannah and
he has a following all over the state, for that
matter, who arc right behind him in this race.
He is a South Georgia man and deserves well
in this section.
Captain Mercer is one Of the most influen
tial and one of the ablest men in Ben Hill
county. He is an honest, courageous fellow,
who always has the courage of his convic-
TONS He has the manliness to declare him
self on the important issues, regardless of their
bearing upon his own political fortunes 1t
is not often you find q man like this. Captain
Mercer, for instance, is for the Hon. Hoke
Smiths collection. He has never concealed
his preference in his paper or his public talk,
and yet by his caudor and bis fairness he is
winning the support Of hundreds of Brown
men wherever he goes. He is always out
spoken in his paper on public issues. He is for
the best and ceanest in politics, for tho
highest and most progressive in the state, is
himself type of the clean cut, enteprising,
influential men of his day.
There arc very few offices he would not fill
with ability. He is one of the moving spirits
in the new county of Ben Hill, and one of the
real men whom Georgia should delight to honor

1t is a question not SO much of dollars and cents,

Year after year the human tide flows from the

ployed, combining the scum of Europe with the

there are millions of acres of land waiting to be

BE CAREFUL ABOUT KISSING

DR.. ROmme, the eminent writer ald
propounder of the theory that the sex
of the weaker parents determines the
sex of the children, embarks on a new
crusade in an article containing some
elementary truths On kissing, says
a Paris dispatch.
ut is the physicians privilege and
duty he writes, ito call things by
their names, and we must be allowed
to say that kissing consists in depos-
iting some saliva on the lips or cheek
of another person. Here are some
facts gathered by myself, which prove
that kiss has often been the cause
of terrible diseases.
"A child was playing in public
park He fell and his cheek was
grazed. A kind hearted lady who
witnessed the accident took a piece
of sticking plaster and applied it to
the chili's cheek. She had licked
it. Six weeks later the child had an
ugly sore on that very spot. He had
contracted dangerous disease. which
he had caught from the kind lady.

who was kissed by her friend after
the ceremony at the church. and who
died of a contagious disease, thus
contracted, is still in all Partisan
memories. Thousands of instances
could be given of cases where tuber-
cOiosis was spread by kisses.

A RECOGNIZED LEADER.

1t is not so much the mentality of Roosevelt
that gives to him such prominence or has won
for him the confidence of the people, It is a
recognition of the manly man; his desire to do
the right thing, regardless of self; his national
pride and his stand for justice and equal rights
for all. AS the head of the Nation, his efforts
have been for the best interest Of the whole peo-
ple---the uplifting Of the masses---and his at
tempt at leadership has been in a direction that
all must follow whose sense of right is not
blunted by conflicting interests. He has not
simply kept pace with the times but has marched
ahead of the times, and his remarkable exam
pie has bred a sentiment among the people that
tends not only to a higher civilization but to a
happier people. We are a nation whose Won
derful natural resources have been the stepping
stone of wealth-accumulating corporations who,
if unrestrained, would eventually dominate ev-
cry interest, with a tendency to make wealth
the standard Of preference. The will, energy
and strength of one man has checked this ten.
dency, and the spirit Of his manly fight has in
vaded every section of the Union. The recent
assemblage of Governors will have the effect OF
still further Strengthening his influence and OF
spreading throughout the land those forces
which work for a greater and nobler people.
In the inaugural address of our new Governor
are traces of the newborn fight for the free,
dom of the people from the perverted power OF
wealth. We quote the following extract from
his address:
Throughout the Union to-day, between peo-
pies want and a peoples desire on the one hand
goes forward the mighty struggle against cor
porate aggression and the tyranny of special in
terests. It must be our duty in Louisiana ever
to keep our government truly representative in
its character, and responsive at all times to the
needs and desires of the people.
