DEATH OF A PROMINENT JOURNALIST.

Capt. James T. Mechanism of Mans
field died Tuesday of last week in New
York, where he went for special medical
treatment. He was born in Shelby County,
Alabama, in 1843. He was a gallant Con-
federate soldier, and was wounded in one
of the battles in Virginia during 1868.
He moved to Mansfield in 1866, where, with
the exception of a few years spentin Texas,
he made his home until his death. Capt.
Mechanism was engaged in the newspa-
per business from 1867 until 1908, when
he retired from the business. He was "a
man of excellent mind, and excellent
heart well fitted for his chosen profess
sion, and possessed all the attributes of the
true gentleman. His pen was ever employ
ed in good work; his mind was directed in
proper channels; his efforts we're expended
on movements calculated to better man
kind his paper was clean and reputable,
and uplifting.

About Good Roads.

West Carroll Gazette: Good roads cost
money but the returns compense for the
expenditure.
Monroe News Star: Good roads are
absolutely essential to the progress and de-
velopment Of any community, and while
we may disagree as to the best methods OF
raising the necessary money to carry for
ward the work, there can be no logical OBJ
lection to good roads and the pressing need
for better highways in this parish. This
being true, then there should be no serious
objection to the tax proposed.
Lake Charles Times: According to
statistics, with the exception of the State OF
Mississippi, Louisiana has fewer roads than
any State in the Union. Have you ever
stopped to ask yourself why? Isit because
we do not need them? Is it because we
have great hills and mountains to sur
mount? Is it because we have no farmers
and consequently no products to haul over
them? Ask yourself these questions and
then answer them.
Leesville Toiler: We are spending
something like 100000 every year on roads
and there isn't decent road in the parish
day, and under the present system there
never will be. Many of our people look
upon the roads simply as a means of get
ting two-dollar- a-day joy. They vote
road taxes with no other end in view, SEEM
ingly forgetting that the object Of a road
tax is to furnish roads, not jobs, to the
people. On account of these miserable
roads it is almost impossible to market
anything at a profit, whilst on up-to- date
roads the cost of transportation would be
less than half, and in bad weather the
farmer and his family is cut off, not only
from town, but often from school and
church, and the whole country is largely
in state of stagnation.
St. Bernard Voice: st. Bernard was
the first parish in the State to build perma-
nent roads, and it has been long time
since quagmires were seen in the parish
so long ago that some have forgotten them
On recent visit to iberia Parish we had
occasion to see a country mud road which
was impossible, and that's putting it mild
ly, and it reminded US of the piece of roac
between the national cemetery and Por
Chalmette. 1t brought back to mind scenes
witnessed long ago on the public roads o.
this parish, and accumulated the fact tina
we are blessed with good roads and shoulc
be thankful for it. The stability and dura'
bility of our shellroads have been fully
demonstrated. In the first road district
which is in the upper part Of the parish
traffic is extensive and heavy. Never il
the history of the State were such pro-
tracted wet seasons experienced as were
witnessed during the past four or five year,
and our roads have withstood the test, ant
our prosperity and growth continued un
interrupted.
