Better Rural Roads

Forrest county is to have better pub
lie highways, the initial step in that
direction having been taken yester-
day when the five progressive gentle
men composing the Forrest county
board Of supervisors passed an or
der providing for the issuing of $780,
600 in bonds for that purpose.
OF course We all know that 100000
is not going to provide the roads
that we need but it will at least serve
TO demonstrate the advantages which
accrue from such expenditures. and
will set the pace which future adj
ministrations will follow until the
rural highways of the county reach
a high state of perfection.
With the building Of better roads
in the territory tributary to Hatties.
burg agriculture is certain to receive
remarkable stimulus and the devel-
opment of our trade territory will ex-
perience a corresponding growth.
No country has ever been extensive.
ly developed agriculturally without
good roads, and no undeveloped coun.
try has ever enjoyed the advantages
and comforts of such arteries of com.
merce and trade.
Experiments with the soil of this
section have amply demonstrated its
productiveness, and it is only a mat
ter of few years when South Mis-
sissippi will rank with the richest
agricultural sections of the state.
Money invested in roads will bring
good returns and The News congrat-
ulates the Forrest County Supervisors
on the wisdom which they have dis.
played in issuing bonds for that DUR
pose. We only wish that the amount
were 100000 instead of $4,000.

rary. By the reports the Nebraska
legislature is Democratic. Unless we
are in error, it will elect a Demo
cratic successor to United States Sen
ator Burkett, whose term expires in
March, 1911. Who will offer odds
that "one of the greatest men of the
country" will not then be chosen for
the senatorship? And if elected to
the senate in 1911, the year before
the next Presidential election, why
not-Vicksburg Herald.
For once in a long time. Editor Nc
Nelly is mistaken. The Democratic
legislature chosen in Nebraska last
Tuesday will not elect a successor to
Senator Burkett. The first senatorial
vacancy in Nebraska will occur in
1911 and a new set of legislators
must be chosen in the meantime.
If Mr.. Bryan wants to go to the
United States Senate, however. there
is little doubt that he will be able
to hold his state in line and that
Democratic legislature in 1911 would
be glad to honor him with the seat
now held by Senator Burkett.
They tell us that Mr.. Roosevelt is
going to the senate from New York
state in 1911. John Worth Kern will
be elected from Indiana, without a
doubt. James X. Vardaman will be
there from Mississippi. But Bryan
would shine resplendent above them
all.
