Richard Hardy declared that the ad-
event of the automobile and auto truck
has rendered the macadam type OF
roads obsolete. "We are spending
money riotuously," he said, land
treating all improvements as expendl-
lures, whereas they.should be regarded
as Investments of the permanent types
of construction were used" He said
it would be more economical for Mar
ion county to appropriate $500, 600 for
a permanent road for the Dixie high
way route than to spend 500, 600 on
Temporary road, and that this county
is spending $500, 900 year on road
work that will have to be reconstruct
ed after five years. Chattanooga
Times.
Mr.. Hardy may..have been incorrect
" reported, but if not, he surely
knows that $500, 900 year is not being
spent on road work in this county. II
it were there would be no occasion to
quarrel over an insignificant bond is

SAYS the South Pittsburg Hustler,
speaking of the Dixie Highway route,
thru this county:
"To drop off the mountain and cross
the river the near way, would be folly,
yea suicide"
He wants to drop off a mountain
and then drop up" another one. We
are glad to note he calls it the "nesr
way" That is what we have been
insisting for a long time, the original
and short route. Fail to see, howev.
ar. where the suicide would come In,
unless it is issuing 800, 200 bonds and
getting a 81. 40 tax laid on the county
for fifty or sixty years.

MT. Havron in his letter in this is
sue regarding bonds says:
"Meu who found and construct our
great arteries and institutions OF COM
merce, never let their prejudices OBJ
scure the Importance Of their invest
ments or forfeit opportunity on mere
audible Of cost. They look ahead to
what they will secure in RETURN
Mr.. Havron is correct In saying that
they look ahead to what they will Sc
cure in return. One man who wants
the Dixie Highway will get a farm
ditched, drained and fenced free OF
charge because the route is proposed
to 90 thru his farm, and will also re-
ceive recompense for the right Of way.
It means over 5000 profit for him
and not lick struck by him.
No member of Marion's county
court is obligated in this bond matter.
We say this because there is already
controversy over the wording OF the
bill as published in the papers OF the
county, and that of the one said to be
at Nashville. No member OF the
court, even if deceived in making
pledge for the measure, is obliged to
sustain a measure which swerves even
one iota from what he was informed

ence from what he was Informed he is

Should be Punished for Non-support

The Clinch Valley News says "there
is statute which provides for the
arrest of delinquent husbands who
refuse to support their families. These
derelicts can be put to work, if neces-
sary, on the roads, we believe, and
their salaries turned over to their
families" Our contemporary said this
much as a prelude to an editorial
favoring n similar law and like pun
isiEnent to the sons and daughters
who refuse to provide for their aged
and INDECENT parents. The News had
good reasons for saying this, because
within the past two weeks an old man
was taken to the poor farm in Taze-
we'll uconty, who has grown children
able to take care of him the remain
der of his life. The law is also silent.
as we understand it, concerning the
wives who desert their husbands and
children. To be just, one and all
should share alike under it's provi-
sions. Certainly the suggestion made
by the News should be adopted, for
it is as little as the children of par
ents can do to care for them when
they are unable to provide for them

Fruit in this section is almost an

there are peach trees some fruit is

Corn is looking fairly well at this

WILL "DROP MIR. BRYAN
WHEN

81 suppose now that you will drop
Mr.. Bryant"
The above question is put to the
editor of this paper by leading
Democrat of this town. If any one is
interested in the answer to the ques-
ton, read on: The Clinch Valley News
has been "a Bryan organ" for twenty
years. We have believed in him, work
ed for his election, voted for him
every time because we believed him Il
good and great man. We have not al
ways endorsed everything he said and
advocated, but knowing our own limi-
tations have been willing to defer to
his greater judgment and wider
sweep of vision. Through all these
years no hint, even from his enemies,
has come to light indicating that he is
not only consistent all the way
through, but, in the main, the wisest
among his contemporaries. He has
led, others have followed-a larger
number than ever followed Demo-
crat in this country before. Now, if
it should turn out that through all
these years Mr.. Bryan has been a
hypocrite or fool, that all his efforts
have been selfish, that all his policies
have been misguided and anarchistic,
that his resignation from the Cabinet
was prompted by a sinister motive,
that he is only scheming to promote
his own political or financial inter-
ests-either or bsth-when it devel-
ops that he is seeking to gather about
him gang of political disturbers in
order to secure nomination for the
Presidency, when it develops that this
great Apostle of Peace is the Apostle
of Strife, when it is shown that the
shine and glisten on his character and
conduct is only cheap veneer-in
short, when it shall appear that MIR.
Bryan has become a low, dirty poll
tician, descended to the level of some
of his character defamers-then we
will be forced to "drop Mr.. Bryan"
and turn his picture to the wall. And
this means that we never expect to
drop Mr.. Bryan" until we, or Mr..
Bryan, are dropped into the ground.
