BETTER ROADS, BETTER SCHOOLS AND
BETTER NATIONAL DEFENSE.

I'D. L. Quisenberry, a Louisa
county farmer; said something at
Louisa on Saturday that deserves
preservation and repetition. Il
believe that every farmer should
desire three things-God's grace,
good grass and good roads. That
is very neatly said, condenses a
volume of good sense and wis
dom in a sentence, and is an cpl
gram that sticks in the memory. &"
Richmond Times-Dispatch.
Goodl But not so good as the
Republicans "Better Roads, Bet
ter Schools and Better National
Defense. Gods grace and good
grass are matters of individual
cultivation, and each can get as
his need and need, but improv-
ing the roads, schools and de-
lenses of the nation depends on
team work of communities with
many conflicting interests, and is
much more Of a task to carry to

a successful conclusion, and an
intelligent direction of activities
along these lines matter of more
moment than the needs of indi-
viduals.
The other slogan of the Re-
publican to REDEEM Virginia"
is in line with the one before
mentioned, for when the Repub-
llcans are again in control of the
State a great step in the progress
towards better roads, better
schools and better national de-

this grand old Commonwealth.

We do not feel it necessary to
offer an apology to our readers
for the space devoted to "good
roads" this week. This is one of
the most momentous questions
that has ever been before the
people of this county for settle
ment. and we feel that they
should have all the information
possible on the subject, and to
this end have freely opened our
columns to the advocates of each
side of the question so that they
may give their views and thus let
each voter and taxpayer have
an opportunity to view this i'm
Portant question from every angle
and vote intelligently thereon.
Some of our correspondence will,
of necessity, be crowded out, but
we believe that our readers, who
have come to look to the COL
umns of the Republican for the
ne~ S of the county. and our faith
tul correspondents, will excuse
us this time, and we make the
promise that after the election
we will again resume our position
as the best county newspaper in
Virginia.

Good people, these stars o.

Glass, have formed a combina.
ton which is known as the Jones
Glass league.
They are now twin stars Of
hope. They hope to become
Senators from Virginia. And
they are stars because, like 9TH
ers engaged in theatricals, they
are the main features, the princi-
pals of their show, a comedy
drama.
They are the same serious
comedians who year after year
accepted Office without ever de-
tecting a flaw in the ballot sys-
tenn that elected them.
They are the same solemn
comedians who assured the peo-
pie that the treasury of the State
OF Virginia was wealthy, healthy
and in the hands of wise men.
They are the same sober come
dams who never asked a vote
whether it was wet or dry when
it was counted for them.
But now they must play other
parts, seriously, solemnly, sober
ly.
They could never find any fault
in the ballot system that elected
them to Office. But they are
changed now. They fear the
same system that elected them
will elect Martin and Swanson.
They were positive that there
was money in the Virginia treas
ury and that everything that was
spent, was well spent, especially
if it was spent to aid Jones and
Glass, the Brittle brothers.
They are changed now, for
they know that no money will be
spent to aid them.
They never questioned a vote
as long as it was cast for them.
but knowing they cannot get any
wet votes they plead earnestly
Tor dry ones.
Their only chance is to fool

are perfectly serious in their

To THE EDITORS OF TAzEwEL
COUNTY:

To THE EDITORS OF TAzEwEL1
COUNTY:
l have been struck with the
fact that your correspondents
who oppose progress do not sign
their names. They try to i'm
press the voters with the enor-
nous sums the county will paw
IN thirty years.
I One says: "a district bond is
sue cost one-half of one per cent
more than a county bond issue. "
He says this is over So, 900 per
year; over 500, 900 in thirty years
almost makes each voter think
he has to pay this himself.
The fact is, that this amount
divided among all the voters
would only be $500 each per
year, less than o cents per month
and nothing is said of what he
gets for this outlay. Now, the
fact is, the fifty-cent road tax on
our present levy of $1,000, 900
is $50, 900 per year, which will
pay interest and sinking fund on
the total bond issue without ad
dltlonal tax on anyone except the
citizens of towns, not now taxed
for road purposes.
We have paid in the last thirty
years over $500, 900 on roads.
Mr.. Voter, did you get your share
OF this road Improvement If not
vote for bonds and get it now. If
you did, vote for bonds so your
neighbor can get his.
We want good roads while we
live. The man in the hearse
doesn't mind the mud.
The Bond Issue dollar has as
many cents as the ''Promise to
Pay" dollar.
No town, county, state or ma
ton has ever done large things
without bonds.
The laborer of today has more
comforts, and deserves them.
than the wealthy of the past gen
Grafton.
What satisfied our fathers does
not satisfy US. Even the Chi
nese have learned this.
We can't bind our posterity by
promises. The only way to make
those who follow us and use the
roads we build pay their share is
by bond issue.
The bond issue will cost the |
poor man nothing; the man of
medium means a medium amount;
the wealthy man a little more, |
but he can afford to pay it.
The time has come for a bend |
issue and we are going to have
it.

The farmers are feeling as
never before the high cost of liv-
ing which has been a sore sub
Ject for years with the salried
people of the cities. The wise
farmer raises to a very great ex-
tent the things that go upon his
table and it is not high priced
provisions that cause the farmer
worry. Farm animals and farm
machinery are sky high compar-
ed with the prices a few years
ago; labor is the same.
The man who purchases a
farm today must pay almost as
much to properly stock and equip
the place as he pays for the land.
Good mules cost anywhere from
$500 to $500 a piece. In fact
no horse or mule of sufficient
size for steady work on a farm
can be purchased for less than
SI7s to S2oo. Cows, hogs and
other farm stock are almost as
high in proportion.
Labor has become so scarce
during the past few years that
the uP-to-date farmer does with
the smallest amount possible,
using sulky plows, cultivators.
and other labor saving machin-
cry. This equipment is expen-
sive and the fact that, under the
present circumstances it lessons
the cost of production, does not
alter the first cost.
Observant men are of the opin-
ion that the increasing cost OF
farming operations is having one
decidedly good effect, that there
is one consolation for it all. This
is Its very strong influence for
better farming, for more intelli-
gent cultivation of the soil, the
rotation of crops and for inten-
slve cultivation generally. 1t is
readily noticeable in Tazewell
county for instance that a stead
lily increasing number of farmers
are breaking their land deeper,
using vastly more fertilizer and
are cultivating their crops more
scientifically, and they are get
ting results. These men find
that the cost of producing 100
bushels Of corn is less when the
intensive system of cultivation is
used than under the old method.
The biggest difference in the cost
is Tor the extra amount of fertil-
lzer and the cost of this has been
found to be such a good invest
ment that the best farmers are
putting from 500 to 1, 900 pounds
to the acre in the place of the
400 or 800 pounds that were
used few years back.

winch the bond issue leaders had
the court to specify in the order
Tor the election as the roads on
which the borrowed money should
be spent:
() 6 miles, John Bundy's to
Cove.
(2l I mile, Liberty Hill to-
wards Hog Back.
90 3 miles in Cove, by Snaps.
(4) ~ miles, Lucy Whites
to Wards Cove.
% 81 miles, Raven to Cedar
Bluff.
(6) 3H miles down Baptist
Valley to Busthead; and I mile
! east from DR.. Baylor's residence.
% N miles, Cedar Bluff by
Wardell.
~ ~ miles, Pounding Mill
towards Claypool hill.
90 mile up Pounding Mill
branch.
(Io) ~ miles, Richlands to-
wards Gray's branch.
OD SIS. 900 on road Richlands
up Big Greek.
(2) $1,000 on road, Laurel
Fork mill up Poor Valley.
All of the macadam roads in
Maiden Spring district are re-
CURED by the order to be II feet
wide. Some of them will be
very difficult to build and require
much rock excavation, and cost
as much as IS, 900 per mile. The
average cost of IL foot macadam
under State supervision under
like conditions is from six to
eight thousand dollars per mile.
JEFFERSoNVILLE DISTRICT.
This district should vote
AGAINST B ND ISSUE"
We have a good start on the
other districts, having 10 miles
OF old macadam and rock road
and a few miles of new macad-
am, and are building some new
macadam under the pay plan for
81, 500 per mile, which would
have cost SIS, 900 under State su-
Pervision and a contractor. We
have our machinery bought and
paid for and it will last for years
Our district road committee is l.
>. Gillespie, M. L. Peery and the
supervisor. Our road foremen
are Henry Kincer, bud Vermil-
lion and Bob Kincer, all capable
and experienced road builders
We have home labor and teams
handy. Give US the same amount
OF money to spend each year on
the roads that the bond issue
would take, and Jacksonville
district will build her roads bet
ter and almost as fast as the
bond issue will, and will keep on
building. If the bond issue car
ries, say in Clear Fork district.
Jacksonville could still operate
under the pay plan. The special
road law would be amended so
as to give Clear Fork district her
own tax money to pay off her
bonds, and the roads in LETTER
district mentioned in the
order would be included in the
statute and required to be built
under the pay plan, and there
would be no danger of such a |
law being changed to please a
few people, whose roads had |
been built.
CLEAR FORK DISTRICT.
This district could build its
road better and cheaper under
the pay plan. 1t has nearly fifty
per cent of the assessed values of |
the county, and could collect
enough taxes each year to build
her roads almost as fast as by
creating big debt. which would
run for 80 years, and take the
whole of the road tax from the
other roads to pay off the debt,
which would amount to half
principal and interest,
