FOR BRIDGE OVER
YADkIN RIVER

The Forsyth county commissioners
returned Wednesday afternoon from
Huffman'S Ferry, on the Yadkin river.
where an enthusiastic meeting was
held with reference to the location Of
the proposed new steel bridge to be
erected jointly by the commissioners
of Forsyth and Yadkin counties. Com
missioner S. l.. Doub represented the
Yadkin officials, the other members
of the board being unavoidably kept
at home.
A large delegation of citizens OF
Yadkin were also present and were
enthusiastic in the movement, de-
claring that the movement now start
ed would result in a great awaken
ing in the interest of good roads il
that county. 1t was stated that the
commissioners will be asked at an
early date to employ an engineer at
once to begin a survey of the roads
of the county to the end that at pro-
per time the improvement of the roads
of the county may be started, thus
permitting the county to develop the
thousands of excellent farm lands,
and place every farmer in the coun-
ty in easy reach of the market. In
the absence of railway facilities the
demand for good roads in Yadkin is
imperative.
The commissioners, accompanied by
a large delegation of Yadkin citizens,
walked up and down the river for
quite distance, and with the aio
of an engineers level were able to
select the sites that offer the greatest
advantages in spanning the river
They selected three sites from which
it is hoped to secure one that will
be satisfactory to all concerned. They
are located within the radius of one

WILSON'S FRIENDS
PAT ON THE TOLL
QUESTION
(By Lee l.. Robinson.)

Washington, April 15.-Despite the
pulilng- OF every possible wire and the
bringing to bear Of every possible in
nuence. some of them very powerful
the leaders in the fight against the
PRESIDENTS plan for the repeal of ca
nal tolls provision have met a stone
wall in the friends OF the administra-
tion in the senate. Local influences,
naturally, VIII have direct influence
and strong personal opinions will keep
some Democrats from supporting the
presidential plan, but a safe major
1ty will be lined up when the final
test comes.
Dilatory tactics, such as are being
practiced, VIII postpone for time the
final taking OF the vote, out only for
a time. The sentiment of the coun-
try, despite predictions to the con-
trary, is back of the President. In
various ways the pulse Of the people
has been taken and in every instance
sentiment in favor of repeal predomi-
mated. The reassuring feature about
the whole affair is the air of confidence
which the President wears lie Knows
just who, N the senate, is against re
peal and who is for it.
He knows that the Republicans see
in the canal tolls fight an opportun-
ity to make peace with their errine
brothers, the ProgreSsiVes, by uniting
with them under common cause. He
knows the Republicans and Progress
sives are storing up ammunition tC

ing he is justified in his present stand
the President will ask no quarter
Should the repeal bill pass by small
majority, with several democrats vot
ing against the administration, this
action would serve more than any 9th
er to quiet the stories that the White
House is dominating the Legislative
branches.
The Presidents general letter o.
congratulation to Oscar Underwood
after the latter won the nomination
for Senator N the Alabama primaries
indicated that he is living up to his
promise not to hold against any mem
ber of his party his vote on the tolls
question.
If a member of the house, a Demo
crat one of the laymen as it were
could be considered as having erred
by failing to uphold the President!
hands in voting against repeal, ther
one such as Underwood, by his action
must have erred grievously by settins
a bad example.
But the President does not cOnside
it, as suggested in connection with hi
letter Of congratu1at.on to Underwood
and those who are trying to chargt
him with holding up" Congress to
point where it cannot exercise its ,pro
per functions, are properly shown Vi

MT. AIRY METHOO|STS
To ENLARGE CHURCH

Mt. Airy, April 16-At the regular
quarterly conference, held at Central
Methodist church last night, COM
mittee was appointed to secure plans,
specifications, and ascertain the cost
of erecting a new Sunday school room
for the church. The rapid growth
of the Sunday school has rendered the
present quarters too small and this
action means that, in the early future.
Central church will complete mod
ern and large Sunday school room.
The conference also authorized the
board of directors to pay the city
5000 to aid in paving Franklin street
in front of the church property.
New Church PeWs.
The new and handsome pews, pre-
sented by Mrs R. J. Reynolds, have
been placed in the new and handsome
granite Presbyterian church in this
city and this is one of the most beau
tiful churches in this entire section
To Enlarge Plant.
The National Furniture company
of this city, has decided to enlarge
their plant by building an additional
storage warehouse right away. These
improvements are made necessary by
the fact that the furniture business
here continues to add new designs
and features and with so many diff
ferent styles and grades it requires
large storage houses for the enor
nous stock that they carry.
