^he New Era ESTABLISHED 1882. R. B. WALKER. EDITOR DALLAS. OA.. October28, 1908. PHONE 28. SUUSCUIWIOJN t One year * Vic Six months .... 40c Three months - 80c Vote for good roads. They who forgive most shall bo most, forgiven. Enhance the vnlt c of your property by voting for good roads on October 30th. Counties that pay less taxes than we do work their roads by direct taxation. A well written, neatly display ed advertismeut is a finger-post on the thoroughfare of business, over pointing the wayfare to your place of business. Because you are past the road age is no reason why you should be oppsed to good roads. Are you not willing to do something that will help the coming gener al after you are dead? A good udvertifiment is the lever that moves the world. It is the doctor of business. When business is good you need it to keep it healthy, and when it is poor you must have it to invigor ate it. Let us Fauldingites (as some call us) set an example on the good road question and thereby show to the world thnt we are leaders, that we are not wil ling to lag behind an questions of progress and prosperity. Some people argue that we had better wait and see how the al ternative read law is going to work in other counties before we make a start. Does Paulding want to suck the hind teat forev er? Why not lead once in a while? In another column will be seen an article on good roads. Every tax payer in the county ought to read it and study it thoroughly. This is a more important ques tion than some people think. (Good roads means the salvation and upbuilding of the county. Everybody in Walton county should pull for good roads, but • especially that class of our citi zens who will have to pull over bad roads if we continue to have that kind, very truly remarks the Walton Tribune. So should ^everybody pull for good roads in Paulding county'. Saves Two From Death. “Our little daughter had an al most fatal attack of whooping cough and bronchitis,” writes Mrs. W. K. Haviland, of Armonk, Y., “but, when all other rem- *edies failed, we saved her life vwith Dr. King’s New Discovery. Our niece, who had consumption in an advanced stage, also used this wonderful medicine and to day she is perfectly well.” Des perate throat and lung disease yield to Dr. King’s New Discov ery as to no other medicine on earth. Infallible for coughs and colds. 60c and.$1.00 bottles guar anteed by A. J. Cooper, trial bottle free. SHALL WEHAVETHEM? Good roads. There is noth ing more needed than good roads in Paulding county. On October the 30th the people will have an opportu nity' to express their wishes for or against this badly need ed improvement. Good roads will be more advantageous to Paulding county than anything we can think of. Where you see a prosperous county or commu nity you will always find good roads. Roads where one horse can draw the load of t wo. Who does good roads bene fit? If it isn’t the farmer, who is it? The man that lives in the country does more heavy hauling than any one else, and it is our honest opinion that if you will go to the polls and cast a vote for good roads on October the 30th you will nev er regret casting a ballot in that direction. We are confident that Dal las is losing trade on account of the almost impassable con dition of the roads leading from some sections. There are other towns get ting a share of Dallas’ busi ness simply because adjoining counties offer such induce ments as good roods, bridges, etc. When we get out of the old ruts and build better roads that trade that should natu rally come to us will flow in. It is very easily seen that Paulding county could macad amize her roads at a very lit tle expense as granite and other hard stones are in the most cenvenient and accessi ble places. Personally, good or bad roads makes very little differ ence to us as our travels are few. We want better roads for the general advancement of our county and town. If we can once establish good roads and see the advan tageaud comfort arising there from, we will never again op pose such an important issue as the alternative road law. Where is your county pride.

High Trestle on South ern Railway Over Pumpkinvine Train No. 81, southbound on the Southern railway, bad a few minutes to get in the clear at Dallas for No. 18 northbound ves tibule Sunday morning. Engineer Jim Nichols opened the throttle of his monster en gine on the summit one mile south of McPherson. Engine 846 never acted better, the big ma chine moved forward at a terrific rate with twenty-five cars be hind. The engineer looked at his watch and knew that, time was precious. His hand went to the throttle again, the engine bounded farward until the driv ers were turning at what was sup posed a sixty mile cliD. Down the hill the long train Hew. Pumpkinvine trestle was reach ed, but alas! never passed. The train was slowed but not enough, when the heavy train put the bridge into vibration the engin eer noticed an unusual swaying and made a great effort, to drive his engine safely across. He put full steam 011 but to no avail, the engine had done the work with its weight, and with a mighty crash the iron bridge fell, sending the soul of Fireman John Fagala into eternity and destroy ing thirteen cars loaded witli corn, oats, cotton and apples. It is supposed that Fireman Fagala jumped, altlio’ this is not known as he was standing on the tank and that portion of the train went down in the highest place about 77 feet. The engine proper staid on the track as only the north half of the trestle went down, the tank was wrung off leaving the engine on the remaining part of the trestle. Six spans of the trestle, which is one of the longest and highest in this section, were knocked down. The bridge is 8(30 feet long, 77 feet high at the highest point and consists of eleven spans. Fireman Fagala was killed in stantly whether he jumped or fell. His neck and right leg were broken. Conductor Sorrels and the flag man were in the caboose and es caped as that part of the train was not wrecked. Some think train wheckers had removed a rail causing the wreck while others believe that the high rate of speed caused the ter- tible disaster. ' The people of Dallas have nev er before seen such a horrible wreck and all day Sunday streams of people were seen goipg and coming. Two wrecking crews reached the scene about 12 o’clock, six hours ofter the occurrence, and more than two hundred men were clearing away the debris. The body of the dead fireman was brought to Dallas and sent to Atlanta where it was prepar ed for burial and later sent, to his home at Varnell, Ga., where be has a wife and two small children. More than 300 men have been continuously at work repairing the trestle. The first, train pass ed over Wednesday morning.
