Entered as second Ums matter at the postoffice al Irwinton, Georgia, under the act ot Conar»«* of March 3, 1873. Advertising rates turwMbsd on appli cation. THE PUBLIC ROADS, The most important matter to the people of this county and the thing tuai should interest them more than ail the political scandals going the rounus is the poor condition ot tht public roads. About the only thint tne taxpayer is supposed to get iron the county is road improvement. Prac tically nothing is spent in the con strucuon or improvement of publn buddings or cnaritable {fnstitutions The best advertisement the county cat get is through the betterment of it. roads, or rather there can be no goo. udverusement at all until there ar. some good highways. It is time tax payers should realize that they ar; not putting men in office to sit o. plush and write on embossed station ery and play politics. If the count; otticials would consider themselves a public servants instead of public fav orites to grow fat, and more system aticaily and intelligently expend th. county's money in road building i would be only a tew years before Wi. kinson would stop taking prizes so bad roads. There never will be a better time t start. Outside people have come in am lOund natural resources here that w knew nothing aoout. Great beauxitt kaolin and paper mill industries hav sprung lup, producing ^thousands o carloads of material a year. Mor. people are employed in the count, man ever before, bringing new lit. and new opportunities for the count, io get out of the backward class am come to the front. If the officials have in the past dom •the best they could, they have had s. many different ideas worked at s>. many cross purposes that the result;, have not been what they should. Th< commissioners would do well if they would try to learn something from the ci unties who have succeeded at roa improvement, instead of going ahea. with some old fashioned idea tha never has accomplished anything. There is nothing that retards th wheels of progress so much as ba. roads, and the only help for the bach wardness of this county is the elia. ination of su much politics and th election to office of men who are wiL 4ng- to .be public servants instead <’ puaiic chai e us. The responsibility i; on the taxpayers to put the affairs o tne county in the hands of competent men and insist tuat they get something lor thea - muife,. When the candidate comes aroun scanning yuur vote, ask h.ai if he ua; any cumuwuve ideas and is wiluu to co-operate with the other official, to conserve the county's resources to i..s improvement. Also consider if h. is competent. What will it prolit th. taxpayer to vote for a man simply be ca.-se he needs the job and the pie. The only sensible way to look at th matter is, what can he do and wha will he do with the county’s funds'. We need some big men on the jot. who will co-operate with each othei and the taxpayers with a view of im proving our roads, schools and insti tutions. When these things are con sidered most important, business con ditions will improve, land values will be higher, and Wilkinson county will have a more respectable s.aadin, among the counties. KAOLIN ANO BAUXITE MINING ' ON the boom in WILKINSON t On accomt of the scarcity of fpr * eign clays me several kaolin mines in > tu.s county and other parts of the state aer working overtime. Some oi the mines are almost doubling their output. Mclntyre and Gordon which a few years ago were unimportant sta tions are now getting to be about Mie best shipping poinisSuong the Central of Georgia Railway between Macon and Savannah. * Aluminum #hlch Is secured from bauxite has risen in price since the war from about twenty cents to fifty five or sixty cents a pound, and the beauxite people are making the most ,of these wartime prices by greatly in creasing their output of ore. Much of this ore Is secured from France and the war cutting off this output fnpm Lthis country has caused bauxite ore ■ind aluminum to reach a price ua teard of before.
