Any uncertainty, however, which
might have remained in the public
mind after Miners utterances. was
removed by the refusal Of Lord Lans-

Good Roads.

Having read with much inter
est the various articles on the SUBJ
ject of Good Roads" and presum
ing it to be a free-for. all fight, /
would like to submit a short dis
cussion.
We need better roads than we
now have in Tishomingo County,
but / am opposed to the system Of
pike roads proposed by Mr.. Neal,
for the following reasons:
1st A careful study of his chart
Of the location of the roads by any
one who is familiar with the coun-
ty and knows where the people
live, will reveal the fact that the
proposed roads would touch only
small per cent of the farms, so
to the majority of the people the
pixies would be only of secondary
value, as a team could haul TO
town no bigger load than it could
get onto the pike with.
End Since the proposed sys-
tenn would cover only small part
of our public roads, it would be
necessary to maintain our present
system in order to work the roads
not piked, and two road systems
would be too expensive.
3rd Because of the low price
of cotton and the advanced prices
on everything to buy, occasioned
by the European war, which con-
dition is liable to last for several
years, a great many people will
not be able to meet additional
taxes without sacrifice.
4th We have just installed a
new system of working the roads,
| which is going to be great i'm
provement over the old system and
let's give it fair trial before we
employ another. 1t is not so ex-
pensive but that it can be used on
every road link in the county, and
if it is properly carried out, it will
give us roads as gooG as other
economic conditions of Tishomin-
| go county-as good as our lands
and methods of farming, as good
as our markets and much better
than our rural school and
the term of our county schools.
4 So in conclusion, it appears tc
me that the first help should be Civ
len to the most needy, and by sc
J doing follow the orderly march Of
progress by bringing all essentia
things up together, and if there
are any preferences to be made
| give them to our boys and girls
rather than to our mules anc
wagons and automobiles.
C.. X. Stephens.
