the gridiron sport in two states are
on edge in anticipation of the annual
game to be played here tomorrow be-
tween the elevens af the University
of Virginia and the University of
North Carolina. Ever since 1892, with
the exception of three or four years
in which no games were played, the
football contest between the neighbor.
ing state university teams has been a
Thanksgiving day attraction in Rich
mond and has never failed to attract
large crowds. The rival between the
two institutions is intense and at ev-
cry game two armies of loyal follow
ers always turn out to root for the
victory of their favorites. Virginia
has far the better of it in the record
of the past. OF fourteen games play
ed the Charlottesville team has ten
victories to four scored by the North
Carolina team. In 1902 the teams
played a tie same.

James Frew, the chief officer in his

the number of them that suddenly
rose from the ocean and bore down
on the Drumgeith is estimated by Of

county, or rather no sys'0ln
itself. can be traced an enof-
nous, if not outrageous, expend-
iture productive of a minimum In
good results.
We lay down this proposition;
Every single dollar of the fund
collected in Sharp county, or any
county, as road tax which has
been used in patching up roads
so that they become merely pass
able has been perverted from the
purpose for which the tax was
collected.
Under the old obsolete plan Of
working the roads we were
patching roads, but the general
assembly, and the public as we'll,
realizing that under such plan
good roads were impossible,
made provision whereby the peo-
ple might tax themselves for the
purpose of MAKING roads-not
patching roads; we were already
doing that. 1t is quite clear that
the pupIic created this road tax
fund in order that good roads
might be constructed and in or
der to escape the inevitable in
dustrial penalties of the old plan,
under which a hundred years
could easily be spent doing moth
ing. The public created this tax
fund willingly because the pub
lie saw it was the only equitable
way in which every citizen could
contribute to road making and
the only possible way in which
good roads might result. We re-
peat that this tax was not created
for the purpose OF patching
roads. We we're doing that un-
der the old plan, and for this
reason the people discarded that
plan and took up the new, from
which they have a right to expect
good results. 1t is unquestion-
ably true, then, that the spirit OF
the law-the spirit Of those who
vote for the ROAD tax is that this
fund shall be used in building
substantial roads, in finishing the
product, while the free labor
shall be used in patching roads,
as of old, while other roads are
under progress of construction
We should like to hear an analy-
sis Of the purposes OF the road
tax on any other theory. IF our
theory is not correct, then the
public must have voted upon
itself O road tax in order that the
overseers could do more skim.
ming over the roads, more patch
ing and repatching Of the roads,
and get good pay for their time
That there has been a wonderful
perversion of the evident purpose
of the road tax no one can deny.
But, place the blame whore you
will, you cannot place it upon the
road tax law or upon the spirit
Of the people who provide the
tax.
What we need in this county is
o practical man, who 10 alive to
the possibilities Of the position,
as road commissioner, Such q
man would throw some system
and business methods into the
road work Of this county and you
would soon SEQ some better re-
suits from the expenditure Of the
public money.
