The last Legislature passed the
most drastic laws regulating the
liquor traffic. The extension of the
county unit, to include all cities of
whatever size, was one which was
promised IN the platforms of both
parties, and was supported by both.
1t is predicted this will practical
ly put whiskey out of the state, as few
counties as a whole will show a
majority of votes in the saloons
favor. Another law forbids anyone
to uprocure, deliver or provide"
whiskey or other alcoholic beverages
in any dry territory in the state.
This will prevent the carrying of
such goods into any dry territory,
or the providing or serving same,
knocking out clubs of all sorts,
wherein the law has been evaded to
some extent, especially in the
larger towns. The other measure
forbids the sale in dry territory of
any drink containing alcohol in any
quantity, and will knock out dealers
throughout the rural and country
sections, where such things have
aourished. Most incorporated
towns have by ordinance stopped
such sales, but in the country the
sale has flourlshed; this will bring
such practice to a close, il the law
is enforced.

Good Roads Number Of The Scientific
American.

The Scientific American of the
issue of March I6 was good roads
special number, and one of the
most valuable that has been pre-
pared in long while. Gen.
Coleman DUPONT was a contributor
supplying illustrations and telling in
an interesting way of the State High
way he is building from north to
south in the state of Delaware, the
length of the road being ITO miles
and the estimated cost being s., 900,
600. Mr.. DUPONT writes interesting
ly of the road, and of the benefits
in general of permanent highways,
and makes prediction which We
all hope may come true, when he
says that in the next twenty-five
years there will be more money spent
for highways IN this country than
has been expended in the last
twenty FIVE years in the building of
railroads. Unfor;ana.sE does no,
state the amount, oat itSisNof course
way up IN the hundreds of millions,
but whatever the sum, We believe he
has spoken advisedly, and the
development of the country will
demand just such wise use OF
money as he fortells.

Coal Being Stored.

The l. {. r. X. Co. is making
heavy preparations to Withstand a
strike of coal miners In this section
April I. For many weeks they
have been taking all the coal they
could get, filling all storage places
at their disposal, and for many days
they have been using side dump cars
and unloading along the right of
way, particularly near Mercer and
the Central City yards, where
switch engine has been kept most of
the time and a large crew of men
shoveling the coal away as it has
been dumped. A new working
agreement is to be made April 1,
and it is possible that the managers
and men may not be able to reach
an agreement, a shutdown of some
duration in prospect, if there is not
a strike. 1t is said the men in
this district do not favor a strike,
as they realize that operators have
been hard hit for some months, and
business does not justify the ad-
vance in wages that will likely be
demanded. 1t is hoped that there
will be no strike, as coal business
has been slow for quite while.

What promises to- b. substantial

Railroad Co. Last week while Mr..
Egan was making some inspections
here, he stated that for some time
be had been considering the
discarding of the double road
crossing near Depoy, where the
highway crosses the railroad twice
in a distance of some four hundred
yards. There Is a grade and dan
gerous curve just there, with
approaches such that neither the
traveller nor the train crews can see
each other sufficiently for protec
ton. There have been several
serious accidents there, costing
the road money, and to save this
and afford protection to the people
who ride and drive on this much
used road, is is proposed to run the
the dirt road on the south side OF
the track between these crossings,
thus eliminating both. The |. C..

over the prospect, as are all persons
who have heard of it, aud 1, is a
certainty that Mr.. Rober, Adkins,
who owns the land, will deal favor
ably with the fiscal court. The
railroad company will buil,l the
road along the most modern lines,
so that il will be a permanent affair,
as good one season of the year as
another, and one that wi,hou, a
penny of repair expense will remain
good for years to come. This will
be starter, and will undoubtedly
be continued, as 1t Is practically
assured that the road will be con-
tinued into town, on this end, and
carried to Graham, also. Once our
people see what good road really
is, there will be demand from all
sections for it, and farmers, business
and professional men in fact every
one, will assist in building such
highways, which more thaa any
other thing will add to the wealth
