IN MEXICAN CAPITAL
Carranza and Cabinet Respond to
Cal for Homage From the CeIebra-
ton Orator-GeneraI Gables for
FoStponement and His Reasons.

~" VI 'aloT-1enerai cables for
Postponement and His Reasons.
President Wilson has asserted that
he felt confident foreigners and 9TH
ers In Mexico would not be endan-
gered by the withdrawal of the Amer
lea ntroops from Vera Cruz. He
said his study of the situation con-
ymced him the time was propitious.
and he was actuated by no other rea-
son when he ordered their return.
Colncident with the Presidents
statement was the receipt Of a cable
from Gen. Funston by the war de
partment. urging that the troops b.
held in Vera Cruz short tim.
longer, in order that many Mex;ca-
fugees-former Mexican Federa'
officers and followers Of Huerta-
may arrange to get out of the coun
try.
This dispatch had not been brough,
to the attention Of the President at a
late hour last night. and it is not
known if he will order the troops to
remain until a certain date, October
IS, for instance, or enforce the pro.
gram for their retur mas soon as
transportation can be arranged. Sec
retary Garrison was out Of the city
and until he returns the matter viii
not be laid before the President.
Orator Lauds WIson
Advices to the state department
from Mexico City were that the In
dependence Day Wednesday passed
off without disorder. The dispatch de-
tailed great rejoicing by Mexicans
when the news was read from the
balcony Of the palace that the Unit
ed States was to withdraw it's troops
from Vera Cruz.
A speech made there in the pres.
ence of Gen. Carranza, his cabinet
and the diplomatic corps at the off.
cial celebration concluded.
"The last shadow the darkest of
all having vanished from our ma.
tional life, we render homage to a
great and sincere mantle great

on you that from this favored land
in the name Of Hidalgo, Of Morelos.
Of Guerrero, Of Juarez, Of Madero, Of

give hearty cheer for Woodrow

States of America"
The official report says enthusiast
ic cheers, in which Carranza and his
cabinet joined, followed.
Sir Lionel Interview ignored.
Sir Cecil Arthur Spring Rice, the
British ambassador again assured
the state department officials that
the utterances Of Sir Lionel Garden,
eriticizing the action of the Presi-
dent in ordering the withdrawal Of
the troops, was not inspired by the
British government,

called from Mexico by the British

NORTH CAROLINA GOOD ROADS
Improved Thoroughfares Tend to
Prosperity Of Farmers and Saving
Of Time Is Considerable.

(By N. BUCKNER)
Throughout the mountain region OF
western North Carolina the good
roads sentiment has attained proper
lions and gathered such impetus as to
sweep aside objections to expendi-
lures for good roads, which is usually
the case in all progressive movements
of great moment The movement had
its inception in Asheville, North Caro-
lima, when the Asheville and Bun
combe County Good Roads association
was organized by a few public spir-
tied men who realized the loss to
this beautiful mountain country by
reason of lack of good roads which
made 1t impossible for not only the
people of this section, but the tourists
and visitors from going from one
point to another.
Immediately after the organization
Of this association, 1t raised $4,000
by subscription and regarded and
macadamized the road from Asheville
to Biltmore, a distance of a little
more than two miles This one piece
Of work in itself demonstrated to the

citizens that good roads could be
built in the mountains and 1t stimu-
lated all thinking citizens to further
effort
At the present time, macadam and
sand clay roads have been and are be-
ing actively constructed throughout
the entire Land of the Sky" region
in western North Carolina, there al
ready being hundreds of miles of
splendid hard surfaced roads winding
about the mountains, across hills and
valleys from one section to another.
The immediate territory surrounding
Asheville is covered with a veritable
network of good roads which are Of
the greatest benefit to the farmers Of
the country and to the business peo-
pie of the city, and of especial delight
to the throngs of visitors both winter
and summer to this most delightful
all the year around resort.
Adjoining counties have caught the
spirit and forces may be found build
ing macadam and sand clay roads
in all sections. To the south Bun

KEEP THE STRAIGHT ROADS
D Department Of Agriculture Advocates
Building Highways Around Hills
Instead Of over Them.

The United States department Of az
riculture is advocating the plan OF
building roads around hills instead OF
over them. From the road builders
standpoint this is a simple way to
avoid expensive grading. From the
practical standpoint 1t will never do,
except perhaps in a few exceptional
cases. The straight section line roads
give the farmer rectangular fields
which are worked with the minimum
of inconvenience. A triangular field,
or one odd shaped in any way, greatly
increases the labor of almost every
field operation. Added to this incon-
venience Of farmers is the danger to
road users from curves In these days
OF rapidity moving automobiles. The
only practical way to do away with
hills in the roads is TO cut through
them.

team to the road drag, making two
round trips Of a two-miles each every
day. That road was in excellent shape
nearly all winter. 1t is still one Of the
best pieces of highway in the county
with the exception of the metalled
roads.
South of here a few miles the mer
chants in a little town resorted to a
dozen different plans to get the farm.
ers to keep dragging the roads last
winter. They made price reductions
to the men who drove into town pull
ing road drags. The farther the drags
had come the more the reductions.
They advertised these plans extensive
ly, gained good deal of trade, had a
, steady trade all winter because of the
good roads and the whole community
was benefited by better transportation
facilities.
1t is remarkable how many miles OF
road a man can drag who gives some
thought and just little time to keep
ing the highways in good shape. Nc
matter how badly "cut up" the high
way may be il the surface is soft the
road drag will smooth it down wonder
fully. There was hardly a week last
winter when every one of the seven
men who formed the agreement failed
to drag five or six miles of the high
way.
Where the school is lively and Wig
orous there is always a chance of get
ting up some road-dragging enthusiasm
there. Every man in the neighborhood
is interested in the school; that the
women are interested goes without
saying. Good roads all winter mean
a better attendance. A meeting most
any Friday afternoon at the school
house ought to result in a good man!
