BETTER ROADS.
Every progressive citizen wants
hitter roads throughout the coun
ty and hut a very few [have been
heard to express their willingness
to start some plan by which they
may hr had for fear of incurring
a. little more of the burdens of tax
ation. But few are in favor of
bonds. Several tire in favor of
working convicts since they can
be worked for the food and cloth
ing, but stand hack on equipage,
the cost of guarding and cost of a
foreman to work them. They
would not he convicts if you did
not have "to guard them. They
Aypuld not work and do the work
right without a foreman and the
only equipage incident to working
them extra of what you are going
to he compelled to supply if the
roads are ever huild, is living quar
ters. The living quarters .are a
very small item when you come to
consider it in the right light. They
can he provided without much
cost and made portable. Take
three No and wagons and huild an
Arizona hay frame on it, attach
.an iron cage and in this way have
a. kitchen, wet weather dining
room and sleeping quarters. Two
guards at a small wage can guard
JO or 40 men by day and one
guard them chained bv night.

To the Hon. Grand Jury Sep

Gentlemen:—l herewith hand
you condensed report expenditures
for the six months ending Sep .
15th, 1908.
The expense of paupers have
increased since last report and it
will lie found by proper vouchers
that the expense of trial ami con
veyance to asylum is chargeable to
pauper accounts.
I'he bridge contracted for lias
been completed and paid for as
will appear oil proper vouchers.
The steel cage for upper room of
jail has also been completed and
p id ior.
All other expenditures will be
found under proper headings on
record.
The (listrihut ive leyv of taxes
for this year have not been made
owing to a failure of comptroller
general to make returns of rail
roads and of her corporation prop
erty which he informs me is being
arbitrated and will -not he com
pleted before O toher 1908. hence
the delay. I now think the roll

doc on the SIOO and 50c on flm
iylOO for state making 90c on the
SIOO for slate and county for the
year 1908.
If when ar- n ; de I see
that the rate can he reduced to doc
on the SIOO it shall he made.

CUsres Coldsa Prevents Pneumonia '
Thomas Woolbright who drop
ped about 3.5 feet from top of a
tree on Sand Mountain last Friday
and received a dangerous jar which
confined him to his bed lor several
hours is out again. Thomas was
out hunting and shot a squirrel
which lodged in the fork of a limb
on the tree. He climbed the tiee
to got Lis game and a limb ho was
holding to broke allowing him to
drop through space striking the
ground below and leaving an im
pre-sion in the earth about live
inches deep. Strange to say no
hones were broken.

Well, the election is over, and
some are pleased and some-are not.
Our representative elect, W alter
Cu re ton, was seen a day or two a
igo up in the woods, with his hat
hanging on a stump, making a
speech to it. Some say lie takes
Bob Smith along and makes him
act as speaker oi the house of re
presentatives. Poor Bob! I'd hate
to be in his place. And George is
as proud of Walter as a little girl
■wit h her tiist doll.
But my sympathies..are with the
.Ideated candidates. My friends
and fellow sutferers. I know just
you fed, and 1 know from bitter
experience how to feel for you. I
have been along the road. J was
a candidate for school trustee once
in Kentucky uiql went down in de
feat, my opponent receiving fifteen
votes and I only got fourteen.
Coming so close to victory made
me feel the wound more. 1 then
moved to Tennessee and was a can
didate for Justice of the Peace a
long with seven others and was de
feated by an overwhelming major
ity. I was thankful t.uu I was
not taylored. You see lain in io
sition to know the bitter s( n-ai/inm
longing and gnawings that go on
in a maids ‘hmirds’ * when he is
hungry tor an office.
I thought 1 wanted an o.Tke this
election but ! had Dr-. Brock and
Middleton examine me an I they
pronounced it liver Double. Dr.
Gantrell Hale said it was hypoean
dro-dipsomania.ski butGantre.il is
just fresh from college, and 1 think
he gets too fresh sometimes calling
a maids disease anything like that.
Bo gentlemen don’t get disheart
-4 \
cued l think it was just some
disease mod of you had instead of
a desire for an office.
Well, news is somewhat Usc-na
•‘Few clothes*’ Claude Hyatt
swapped John Slaton an old horse
which Andrew Jackson left over
in Alabama on his way to New
Orleans in 1812, for an old crow
bait of a mule that he has to help
get every morning and claims
Slaton beat him out of nine dol
lars in the trade. I would hot give
six dollars for both of them if I
wanted them for soap greast.
i am sorry to hay that the fam
ily relationship of seme of our
best people is not what it should
be. 1 refer to Tom Smith and his
son, ‘•fatty.” (Fatty is growing
very thin over it.) It seems that
last summer Tom had a small po
tato patch which the. bps were
about to take and lie told ‘‘Fatty”
if he would kill the bugs off he
would give him an old domineckcr
rooster which lie had on hand, so
‘•Fatty” started in, but after an
hours work he concluded the job
was too big for the pay, and quit.
Tom then told him he w ould give
him a cent apiece to kill the bugs
and he went back to work. He
worked a day and a half and then
went to Tom for his pay, claiming
he had killed seven billion bugs
and when Tom wcntjto pay him
lie did not have the money, as it
would take all the money Rocke
feller, Vanderbilts and the Goulds
are worth and ail Lee Castleberry
thinks he is w orth to pay it offs
They agreed to halve it to arbitra
tion, and “Fatty” selected Fling
Tidwell and Tom selected your
correspondent to settle it but we
had a hitch, as Sling claims to be
the biggest liar in Georgia and I
claim he might have been before 1
came to the state, so there the
matter stand s We are all going
to try and get an umpire this
week forthe third man. We are
c. ming on Frank White now .
S taking of pot at bags makes
me think of a hsh tale Frank Pitt
man told me about. Frank caught
a lour pound cat fish in a net and
laid it on the ground and four or
live hours‘.later when he started
home he found the fish was still
alive, so he put it in the minnow
bucket and took it home When
arrived there he again laid it out
on the ground to die, but after an
hour or so the fish was as gaily as
| ever* so he took it to the pump
and gave it a drink and put it in
the horse trough and gave it a
bath and let it lie on the ground
again, then put it back in the
trough. It was not long until the
fish (ould live out ot water as well
as in it. In a few days it got to
know Frank and would follow
him all over the yard and could
meow like any other cat and when
Frank’s little dog Pete would
come around, that cat fish would
bow up its back and its fins would
stand up just like an ordinary ev
ery day cat. But alas! All good
things have an end. One day
Frank started out for a walk and
the fish followed along after him,
flopping away until they came to
wheie a foot "log crosses Lookout
creek. The fish flopped off the leg
into the creel: and was drowned.

Returns From Michigan.
W. E. Wilkinson and family o!
Sand Mountain have returned
from an extended visit to t'le'i
old home at Central Lake, Micf.
It will be remembered that they
went there several months since
by way of Ohio where they ac
companied the remains of their
uuc e who died here and was bi -
rice in Ohio.
While in Michigan Mr. Wilkin-
son put in good time boosting this
section of the south to those of his
friends who are contemplating a
move and place of location. Mr.
W ilkinson is not only a booster
but is one ot the most progressive
men in this- locality lie cam:

X
\ re what the avmage Bade com -
ty farmer (we are sorry to say)
would consider almost a lifetime
work and yet he is not satisfied.
In fact he has only begun to do
what lie has planed to do in the
fanning and fruit growing busi
ness. His plans are to have more
of ids fiOO odd acre farm in culti
vation and duplicate his already
large orchard, diverting a little by
planting apple trees with his next j
planting equalizing them with the
peach.
