IMPROVE THE ROADS.
Had we a voice in the legisla
tive halls of this stAte jt would
be raised earnestly and long in
favor of the improvement of the
public roads. The subject cer
tainly, warrants long and earnest
consideration at the hands of
those in the legislature.
It bas'been said befrite this day
that a community’s roads are its
main arteries through which its
very life must course. Be they
bad roads then that life is of a
necessity sickly. Be They good
roads and in the same proportion
as they are good will the commu
nity he in a healthy state physi-
rally and financially, to sav the
least of it. So much, has been
said along this line already that
every man who is interested in
the public welfare in the least
knows that the value of good
roads cannot, be measured by dol
lars and cents. They are simply
of incalcuable benefit to the sec
tion of country they traverse.
Every county in this state may
improve its system of roads if it.
cares to. One means by which
the improvement may he wrought
is the county convicts. Work
these able-bodied men on t.|ie
public highways in return for
their transgression against the
public welture and the result, will
he not only to protect, society in
general from their attacks but
also to turn their very transgres
sion into something good and
useful for those against whom
they wage their iniquities.
We are not entirely convinced
that the best interest, of the pub
he will be served, if all the con
victs are worked on the public
roads. We arfe satisfied, how
ever, that the short terip fellows
can be used to the best advant
age in tliis way.
There is before the legislature
at this session a bill by Mr. Field
er, of Bibb, whipli seeks to im
prove the state’s roads by means
of the convict work to which we
refer. Its author describes it, as
u. bill which rnakqs it optional
with a county whether it shall
work its convicts on the roads or
lease them as at present. It
seems to us that tins bill has
much to be commended in it an
should have the consideration of
the legislature.
it seems possible that such
system of road working could be
made of immense profit to the
state of Georgia. Improved
roads would increase the taxable
value of property to an extent
that would make it pay for the
sustenance of the system. This
would in itself prove as advanta
geous to the state as the present
system of keeping convicts en
the self-sustaining state farm at
•'Milledgoville, to say nothing of
the benefits good roads would
bring to the property owners
themselves.
We hope to see the legislature
take up the Fielder bill for con
sideration right soon.—Atlanta
Journal.

ing to the report, $202,122.87 has

"Most of the time for ten years I was confined to my
bed with some disease of the kidneys. It was so
severe I could not move part of the time. I consulted
the best medical skill available, but got no relief until
FOLEY’S KIDNEY CURE was recommended to me.
I am grateful to be able to say that it entirely cured me."

EDUCATION AND PROSPERITY
General education is essential
to prosperity; it is a condition to
industrial progress; it has the
highest economical value; it is
the grand means of developing
or increasing natural resources;
it is the producer of wealth. Af
rica is the Dark Continent, with
its infinite capabilities, because
of the gross ignorance of her
children. -Agriculture, manu
facturing, mechanic arts, all in
ternal improvements are the
creations of intelligence. All
contributions to human welfare
have come from knowledge.

ductive.—Dr. J. L, M. Curry.

CLEVELAND’S .ATTITUDE.
The Commoner asks what
Grover Cleveland has done since
1896 to make him popular. Well,
for one thing he has refrained
from making a fool of himself.
He could well afford to be con
tent with his laurels, and he has
shown a dignified absence of that
desire to thrust himself upon the
public so visible in certain oth
er quarters. Besides, as the
Boston Herald .well says, “He
was reasonably popular before
that time, until a portion of the
people thoughtlessly parted with
their better judgement. Since
then all that it lias been neces
sary for Mr. Cleveland to do has
been to remain in dignified quiet
ude while they are brought to
a realization of the mistake they
had made. His opponents have
done the work of opening, the
people’s eyes in the matter. If
it has not been fully achieved, it
is in a fair way to be, and those
who thought they could do better
in another quarter have obtained
an ample lesson on the subject
in the school of adversity.—Ma
con Telegraph.
