Never before in the history
America has there been so much
interest manifested in the con¬
struction of good roads all over the
country* It now seems certain that
the whole country is to become a
network of good roads, substantial
roads—roads that are to be perrn
nent. But it is not that we take
no interest in the condition of
roads of all states in the nation
that we turn our attention to the
roads of Georgia, and then from
the roads of Georgia to the roads
White county, but it is because of
our local pride aud desire for the
best that can be afforded our peo¬
ple (our neighbors) that our great¬
est interest lies in the establish¬
ment and construction of good
roads in White county, and we
decidedly believe the people of
White county, are really anxious
for good roads.
The reasons why White county’s
people should have good roads well
known to the people themselves.
A half century ago the roads we
had then were comparatively bet¬
ter than now, that is to say, in ac¬
cordance with the population, the
needs of the population, the finan¬
cial conditions at that time. But
now the people want something
better in all material things than
their father’s had. They want bet¬
ter vehicles, better implements,
better crops and larger crops from
the land—and they
get them, too, hence they live more
comfortably and without so much
hard effort and actual privation,
AU right, the people want better
roads and if they are willing to
pay for fhein they ara as justly en¬
titled to them as any people on
earth and, they are going to vote
bonds to get the money to build
these roads with, and it is up to
the county authorities to use the
money to the very ‘best advautage
possible.
Vote for bonds and we hope to
live a loug time to held you pay
the bills.
John Syrupcorn has again been
playing to the hands of trouble in
White county. Two more young
men have been brought for trial in
the town court of Cleveland for be¬
ing intoxicated and were fined,
namely Albert Allen and Jeremiah
Roberts If these men brought the
whifkey to town and became in¬
toxicated from it then they are
wholly te blame; but if they came
here and bought the whiskey in
town, then the town is to blame,
and the boys have paid the bill.
Furthermore, we read in the
Jackson Herald where two White
counsy boys were taken in custody
by the officials of that county
having a load of potatoes
which was found ninety gallons
whiskey. They lost the whiskey,
potatoes,wagon and team of mules.
Tliege unfortunate boys
Howard McAfee and Frank
and the team, it is said,
to Mr. S. E. Reece. Over
thousand dollars worth of
a team and wagon and many
els of potatoes is what these
lost if the property was theirs,
if it was not theirs someone
will be the loser, at least in part
It will cost the boys some money
get of it, but they are yet
and we do hope that this will be
lesson to them—as well as
who might be induced to do
things, that they will
and heed the rest of their days.
