Judge Mann Heartily Advocates
Good Roads

Judge william Hodges Mann,
virginis's next Governor, spoke
at Blackstone a few days ago in
the interest of good roads. The
occasion was a meeting of good
roads people of Nottoway county
who net and endorsed the issuing
of bonds to the amount of $780,.
900 for road building purposes.
Judge Mann was one of the
principal speakers. Owing to the
fact that he is to be the next
Governor of Virginia, Judge
Mann's remarks were awaited
with great interest. In opening
he very pleasantly remarked that
while it had been disputed, he was
still! citizen of Nottoway, and
thoroughly alive to anything
which would build up her material
welfare. He said:
Good roads 10 the most vital
question before the people of Viz
ginis today, and that he would ap
ply his every energy CT mind and
body as Governor of Virginia to-
ward giving the counties State
aid in a practical and substantial
way that he favored the owner
ship by the State of quarries at
suitable locations, and working
therein the long-term prisoners:
that he was satisfied from CONVEX
sations he has had with leading
railroad officials that the road
materials could be hauled at nomi-
nal expense, and thst after the
expiration Of the Davis contract,
convicts would be plentiful for
this purpose. Judge Mann stated
further that he favored the ex-
penditure of the tax Of the rail-
roads on the tuilding of roads,
and otherwise aiding the counties
IN such a way that the State could
furnish money enough to pay the
interest on the bonded indebted
hess of each county, and let the
county maintain her roads and
provide sinking fund. II would
then be very easy for county to
issue bonds without being burden
ed.
Judge Mann spoke of the SPLEEN
did advantages which the county
of Nottoway and Southsioe Vlr-
ginia have in the way of schools,
churches. good lands, climate and
otherwise, and said that it only
needed good roads to make things
complete. There would then be
no trouble to keep the. Virginia
boy at home. and no trouble to
settle up and rebuild the waste
places. The Judge was never in
better spirits, and concluded
amidst great applause and en-
thusiasm.

Congressman Scott Of Kansas is
Interested in I g Project.

Washington, Jan. 18.-Repre-
sentative Charles f. Scott, chair
man of the committee on agricul-
ture, has been giving a good deal
of attention to the project of Sc
curing the drainage survey for
the Marias des Cygnes river and
wi t h fattering prospects of
success. 1t is a matter, in the
first place, of sufficient appropri-
alton and in the second place of
persuading the government en-.
gineers of the Importance of the
work He has already taken the
matter mp with the engineers and
feels reasonably certain that they
will be willing to include it a.
mong next years projects, if the
appropriation will permit. He is
therefore looking after the APP
preparation end of it now and
feels reasonably confident o +
success.
The work, if done, will be a
long similar lines to the drainage
survey Of the Neosho river, which
was made a year or two ago
through Mr.. Scott's influence.
In the case of the Marias des
Cygnes, however, it will quite
likely extend into Missouri as
well as Kansas for the reason that
the foods in the Marias des
( Cygnes are even more destruct.
i've in the former state than in
the latter. In Bates county, Mo
a great many farmers have al
ready built dykes TO protect their
lands, and a drainage survey
would be of Importance in maxi
ing IL certain hat these dykes
are built at the right place and
in the right way.
A survey of the Marias des
Cygnes, If properly followed up,
would be OF inestimable benefit
TO the people living along the
stream
