said to be responsible for the
introduction into this city Of
the new Heel of Youth which has
had remarkable effect upon the gait
of almost every old habitue Of the

There is also a great moral les
son in good roads. | would be
afraid to say what the old mud
system had cost our forefathers
in their talk to their horses when
stuck in the mud, whereas under
the new system without any un-
necessary harsh usage they can
drive their teams to the nearest
town without any breakage, or
any serious damage to their re-
ligion.
I have said enough to show
that good roads bring wealth,
happiness, morality and peace
into a community and the only
thing necessary to add, is to ad-
wise as the best method of secur-
ing this new system. Some pre-
fer direct increase of taxes, let
ting the present generation pay
and then being done with it once
for all. The others say, that as
the future generations get the ad-
vantage of the enhanced value of
property, as we'll as the conven-
ience of the system, they too
should pay their part of the tax
es, and let the bonds be gradual
ly paid off, by creating a sinking
fund for that purpose. The first
plan has been used in Forsythe
county and is rather hard while
good roads are in the process of
construction, while the latter
plan has been adopted in other
counties, and work we'll, very
slightly increasing the amount
of taxation. This is a matter
that should be left to the wisdom
of each county, but all should
agree that no matter what course
they pursue good roads must be
| built.

Marriage On Void Licenses.

Charlotte Observer.
A recent ruling made by Judge
Webb while holding Forsyth Su-
perior Court has caused a good
deal of comment in the papers of
the State. The judge held, doubt
less rightly, that there is no law
empowering deputy registers of
deeds to issue marriage licenses,
and, consequently, licensesissued
by them are invalid. The case
will be taken to the Supreme
Court on the point raised by the
defendant in the indictment,
which the judge dismissed and
from which ruling the State ap-
pealed.
The charge in the Indictment
was that of perjury against the
person who applied for the IL
cense in swearing falsely as to
the age of the girl who was one
of the parties to the proposed
marriage. The court held that
as the deputy register of deeds
had no authority to administer
oaths and grant marriage licenses
there could be no perjury on the
part of a person making false
oath in such circumstances.
Some Of our exchanges, COM
menting on this decision, seem te
think that a marriage performed
under such license would be void
