FOR GOOD ROADS.

We notice that the Evening RECORD,
of Columbia, will start out a path
finding car blazing out what 1t terms
the Capital to County Route. The
Herald and News suggested a few
weeks AGO that the people Of Colum-
bia take up something like this, ana
We are clad to see that the Record IS
going to do it.
t will stimulate al interest III gooo
roads and we believe Will result III
having at least one good road from
the capital Of the State to each coun-
~ seat If that much is accomplished
it will be a very easy matter to get
more roads built.
This subject of good roads is a
hobby Of ours and has been Tor a
number of years. We are fully con-
v;nced that there is no investment,
whether it be in the shape OF a direct
tax or in the issue Of bonds, that the
people of this State can make that
will pay as large dividends as the
building of good roads. We are GLAD
TO see the movement is taking shape
throughout the State and we are very
anxious that Newberry shall be IN the
lead in this matter.
Especially will good roads be OF
great value to the rural districts. we
now have the delivery OF mall every
dav in almost every section OF this
county, and the telephone reaches
nearly every community and we need
the roads so that We may have better
schools and that the churches OF the
rural districts may. be built up. Then
will come the day which we have oeen
wanting to see during our lifetime
when people will desire to move to
the country instead Of crowdlng the
already overcrowded cities. For
many years the prosperous farmer
has longed for the day when he could
move to town. That should be re-
versed and the town and city man
should long for theS time when ne
would be able to move to the country
One of the reasons for leaving the
country is to secure better school and
ehuroh facilities. With the building
of good roads these advantages Will
come to the country, tor WlthouC
roads schools and churches would not
be worth much to the citizen VINO
moved into the rural community.
We will take pleasure IN cooper
ating in any way we can with the
Evening Record in its path finding
enterprise. Good roads between
Newberry and Columbia would make
the distance no further by dirt road
than it would be by railroad.
We believe that if the road IS
built from Columbia to the AeWoerry
county line that our people in New
berry will cooperate in extending the
road through the county seat to the
Laurens and Greenwood county lines.

The editor told me just as he WAS
ready to start for the press assocla-
ton in Greenville that Mrs. b. NJ.
Evans had phoned him to'tell me that
she knew the trash cart had arrived,
and that she had seen it on the Sum-
mer Bros. grocery corner, and that
she had been after Mayor Langford
to put it to work, and that he had
promised to do so, but it still stands
there idle. l will, therefore, have to
ask his honor, the mayor, why that
pretty little cart standeth there idle
all the day long and why man has
not been hitched to it so that 1t
might have had at least a test OF
strength. Let it get busy.

Speaking Of paying taxes, l can t
for the life of me understand why a
great many Of the people in the coun-
try are opposed to the bond issue tor
good roads. Why, they are the people
who will be most directly benefited,
and the taxes which they will pay tor
the roads will be very, very little IN
comparison with the great good which
they will derive from them-the III
creased value OF their lands, and the
increased profits on their marketable
products, to say nothing OF the COM
fort and convenience and pleasure
which they will bring. And they tell
me that the town will pay about one
third of the taxes if the bonds are
voted. 1t takes people a long, long
time sometimes to learn the things
that make for their material welfare,
and sometimes you have to force on
a fellow what is good for him before
ne will take it. After he gets it, Of
course, he is nightly pleased.

The Idler never means to be "caus-
tic." but it did strike me that a Sc
rious matter was being treated IN a
very light vein. 1t is all over now,
however, and it wasn't very much OF
my business, anyhow, because l am
not the guardian Of the county, 1t
some people do accuse me sometimes
of dipping into a little Of everything.
But. YOU know, the fellow who pays
tine smallest amount Of taxes is al
WAYS the Liggest kicker, and, then, l
never charge anything for my advice
or for my comments.

The Idler, though, didn't start out
to make kick, and hasn't done so,
and I hope nobody will think I am
kicking. Maybe haven't got any
right to kick, and for that reason I
never do so.

Dispatches from Oregon seem to in

the attorney general OF the United
States in the fight Of the federal gov
eminent land frauds, it made no mis-
take. Word comes now that another
step in the fight of the federal govern
ment to recover possession of the land
included in the immense grant to the
Oregon & California company, has
been taken by Attorney Townsend
thirty-five suits having been commenc-
ed in the federal court in Port:
land. These suits are in equity
against the Oregon & California road,
the Southern Pacific and over one
hundred other defendants. The suits
are supplementary to those previously
filed against the Hartman companies.
The suits involved more than f1f-
teen million dollars and also more
than $4,000 acres Of land. All of
which is located in Oregon.

$4,000 to put up such a structure as
the company needs. Several sites are
being considered which are available
for such a building and the railroad
company is being consulted with on
the matter. The company will make
a ten year lease OF the building when
completed. The plans of the build
ing are already drawn by the com
pany's architects, and no doubt its
conservation will be under way in the

One of the questions which the eoun-

coming session Is that Of erecting a
new jail or ren,odeling the old one. IL
is hoped that this topic will occupy a
sufficient amount of time to keep the
board in session reasonable period
and prevent the establishment Of a bad
precedent of short and business-like
session If by any chance the board
should find an early adjournment star
ing them in the face, special commit
tee should be appointed TO investigate
the reliability of the various text books
in use in county regarding the Black
Hawk war and its effects. This should
afford ample opportunity to spend time
and create salary. -Readstown Trib-
