Progress in Road Building.

That the Central Highway from
Hickory to the top of the Blue Ridge
is assured is the statement of DR..
Joseph Hyde Pratt, who has been in
Washington meeting with the educa-
tional committee of the National
Drainage Congress. His account of the
progress of road building in North
Carolina is entirely optimistic. Nebo,
Marion and Old Fort townships in Nc
Dowell county have recently passed
bond issues for roads; Madison has
passed 100000 worth of bonds.
Burke county has completed it's share
of the central highway with the ex-
ception of short strip on each side
of Morganton. And since the good
roads bill passed the last legislature,
DR.. Pratt says that there have been
twenty-eight applications from coun-
ties wishing to take advantage Of it's
provisions.

LOBBYISTS THICK
ABOUT CAPITOL u
PRESIDENT WILSON sTIRs UP
THINGS BY DENouNc1Ne
THEIR WORKINGS.
ARE MAKING NO HEADWAY
Bills Have Been Introduced in Cong
ress BY Several Senators and VIII
be Pressed For Action Locking to
Their Regulation.
ARE MAKING NO HEADWAA

ington.-President Wilson STIR
red congressional circles with an en-
phatic statement denouncing the sin-
dustrious" and "insidious" lobby in
Washington attempting to create pub
lie sentiment against certain features
of the Underwood tariff bill. This
was accepted at the Capitol as referr
ing to the unusual efforts being made
against free raw wool and free sugar.
While the President was declaring
it his opinion that the public should
be relieved '@from the intolerable bur-
den," Senators and Representatives
were viewing on every hand the evil
dences Of the lobbyists which beset
them; and significance was attached
to statement made by Senator Sim
mons, chairman of the Finance Com
mittee, which now has the tariff bill
in hand that, in his opinion, the lobby
lists were not making any Roadway.
The Presidents declaration that the
lobbyists were so thick "that one could
not throw a brick without hitting one"
revived interest in two bills recently
introduced in the House and Senate
to regulate lobbying on pending legis-
lation.
Senator Kenyon of Iowa and Repre-
sentative C. B. Smith of New York
have declared their intention to press
bills they have introduced which
would restrict the work of lobbyists,
require their registration and require
that they be licensed to appear before
any committee or to carry on a cam
paign for or against proposed legisla-
ton. Heavy penalties would be i'm
posed for violations.
Democratic leaders were almos'
unanimous in support of the Presi-
dents statement maintaining that they
are we'll able to handle the important
pending tariff legislation and that the
sugar and wool bill will he thoroughly
considered and discussed by the FL
nance Committee and Democratic
caucus before it is reported. 49,.

Cannot Convict Under Webb Law.

Knoxville, .Tenn.-That no convic-
ton can be secured under the provis-
ions of the Webb act was the state
ment of Judge E. T. Sanford in his
charge to the Federal grand jury. The
Webb act was delinated as an act that
had no power to infiict a penalty. and.
it was explained, no conviction could
be secured under it's provisions. Its
chief worth was to remove from In
terstate shippers the protection of
Federal legislation and gave the
states greater freedom in enforcing
their liquor laws.

Mr.. G. F. Beam, publisher Of the

Hospital, following an operation. The
body was taken to Cherryville for
burial. There were no eye witnesses
to the tragedy, but from the best in
formation obtainable, Lee, who is a
nervous wreck and a physical weak
ling, was on his way to his Office when
accosted by Beam about an account
