We frequently hear clamorings for a new system of working the public roads, and many arc the suggestions as to the most, feasible, plan of providing first-class roads, at the least expense.. Has the present system been thoroughly tested by giving full powers allowed to overseers under the present law? No! It has not had the latitude intended hy the legislature upon the question. The law provides for the work ing of a person, subject to road July, fifteen days in a year, and npver to our knowledge has any in dividual put in more than one third of the time. Suppose at the most convenient season of the y< ar the fifteen days are worked In five years v;e would see our pres ent system free from its imaginary defects. When we say work til teen days, we do not mean to work as has been the custom heretofore. But when a man fails to do his du ty let the overseer report him for whatever default in his labor there may be. What work is done Jet it he with a view to permanency, and not simply to slight and shirk a Juty. Let our overseers begin by work ing ten days in the year, and those ten days he devoted to ma pademizing where necessary. Good public roads are weakly to any co.unty enterprising enough to pride jn their construction. Ini five years, with a permanent road I bed the work would he compara- | tively nothing. Who will be the first to adopt our suggestions? The Republican national con vention is in a considerable mud dle. John S. Wise and Mahone are henceforth forever and forever enemies. Present indications point to the nomination of either Sherman.or Harrison. In the event neither can secure the nomination Blaine will undoubtedly be the nominee. Just as sure as the ‘•Plumed Knight” gets the nomination just that sure will he accept. The Chattanooga Times seems lo think that Henry Watterson does not know free trade from pro tection. The Times accuses Wa t/ j'sou of saving the Mills bill was a protective measure. Germany lias lost two emperors Re p,a«f two months, Frederick s .succeeded Iw William Ji. FROM MON. \V. J. TAYLOR, To Ilio Voters of (he 44th Senato rial District: I enmo to Dade 40 years ago, and during that period, except when absent on account of tin; mis fortune:-' of war, have been 'one of her citizens, i have labored with her people as well as those of Walker and Catoosa, both in tri umph and defeat. I deem ii no part of egotism to assert that, as a citizen socially and politically, i have always done my part of the burden in every battle fought dur ing this time. The old citizens all know mo, having stood shoulder to shoulder with many of them in contests that cannot he forgotten. But there are many young men that have come to the ballot box since I mingled much with the people. To one a nd. all f say for the first time I ask ol' you office, and only desire it now as a free gift of the people. 1 shall not he around among you to any great ex tent persuading you to vote for me, or telling you some disagreea ble story on my neighbors or oppo nents in order to gain your favor. If you cannot give me preference on my own merit 1 would not ob tain it by slander. J pitched my crop before 1 became a candidate, and must see that out. Bui if by plurality you call me hence I will be there, and will stick to you and and your interests with the Same nerve and fidelity 1 pow do my coni and potatoes. If I get laid by, i will he with you on the 4th of July. If not, please remember me as one who could not go, because the weeds were growing so. If there is any point at issue on which any voter or company of vo ters would like to have my personal views, write me on the subject, and I will answer you fully. In ac cepting office at the hands of the people 1 should not consider my in dividual opinion in opposition to their expressed wishes in any case. However, I am one of the people, and their interest is my interest. Trusting myself to my fir!• pds I am in hope of success. Wm. J. Taylor. (T GRAPE VINE, TEXAS. Editors Dade County News. I wiii write you a few 1 am a reader of your excellent pa per, Although a citizen of the Lone Star slab-,I was furmcrlp a,resident of dear old Dade. The health of the people is extra good for this season of the year. Crops arc very good, although three to lour weeks later than usual. Harvest is in full blast, and ono can hoar the sickle from sunrise until it got:,; down behind the western prairie. 1 was on Uncle Bi v. Austin’s farm yesterday, and he has between To and TOO acres in wheat, and they were working five horses to a self-binding machine. After 1 left the wheat-field I went to the house and ate supper with the two good old souls, I nolo I>lov. and Aunt Bollv. And when I say supper I mean a square meal, for Aunt Pol ly always has something on her ta ble that is nice and good. Well, I might as well say the Democratic party of Texas is jubi lant over the results of the St Louis convention, and the renornination and election of Governor Ross to his second term is certain. Respects to old friends in Dado and success to the News. S - A. Higdon. Great excitement prevails in Laurens, S. C., caused by the elope ment of Rev. Joe Jones, brother of Sam Jones, the Georgia evangelist, and Miss Bessie Farrow, of Cross Anchor, vS. C. Mr. Jones met the lady last summer while conducting a religious meeting qt Laurens. The mother of the young lady was opposed to the match, but it was favored by her father. On one oc casion, it is said, Mr. Jones went to see his affianced and v,*as met by in r mol her, who shut 1 lie door in his face and refused to admit him. Mr. Jones became tired of such ob stacles, and, with the aid of a friend, secured the girl, ran away and miUT iyd her. The couple ex pected to leave on fi night train hut the bride left in such haste that she neglected to take her bag gage. The mother declines to give it up, and threatens to shoot the first man who puts his foot inside the door. Mr. Jones is 35 years of age, and has for sometime past been preaching at Lauren e S ('. Hurrah for the barbecue and the Fourth of July. FROM AUNT POLLY. V Tender and Touching Tribute of Sorrow. How hard it is to sav, ‘‘Thy will be done,” when death, with his rob rifles hand, lays low .mo eh r ished idol of th ■ heart. Hon hard to see the sparkling eye grow run to feel the hand that om e -,la. our-own in love grow col. . listen for the music of on ■ d.-.n* voice and know that voice* is hush ed forever. Tlr.cn the from (ding lips refuse to say “Thy will ho done/' How unllin. hingly v, < can stand with friends around the death-bed of sonic one as dear to thorn as their own lives. How elo quently can we quote to them he words of good old Jol >, and ot h : : “The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away.” “He tempers the wind to the shorn lamb.” “Thy will be done.” But widowed <mo. who thinkest of the years or love and joy fprever fled ; who still, in fancy, hears the loving tones, arid seest the beaming eyes of him who long since stole thv heart away; when thou didst sit beside his bed of pain and wipe the gathering damp from his cold Brow, and moisten his silent lips— ‘ 4 T!;y will be done, Thy will ” Couklst thou then say it. widowed one? Or later, when you realized that I faithful, loving heart was stilled forever? Whilst you pressed yom orphaned little ones to your own louely, aching heart, thinking of the great responsibility of training them aright left on your weak shoulders to bear alone along UfoT jaded pathway; say,could you from the depth of your heart th us cry, “Thy will he done? ” If you could not, in pity, tell in - so, that I may know that I am not alone ike most stubborn of (mu's creatures on earth. Mother, thou who hast watched b aide thy long y.< ary ‘nights; hast scan death steal the rose from its soft cheek, and watched the lamp of life burn low, dicker, than die out; when clasp ing the lifeless clay to thy empty heart, was it not bard “Thy wil; b" done,” to utter? Ah. 'tu- hard in deed to say! Yt t them is some consolation in knowing that it is Nature that writhes and hates the rod, while faith looks up and blesses God. While i wrote these words, iny friends, a message came to me: ‘Found dead! ” For one moment my heart stood still. I t cannot be ! Then 1 thought of the stricken husband, the motherless children. And again I repeated th words, “Found dead.” Oh, the y.-tery of life—of death. la grief pover ty, their wait upon this earth, many who long, who pray to die. Death leaves them to a reluctant life. But she, born away without a mo ment’s warning. This woman, in comparative youth and happiness, .while those who loved her smiled, died without cue parting word to the dear ones left behind. Com fort roust come to those who loved her. In the memories of her life there is nothing huj goodness and kindness to look back upon ; and sweet recollections will steal away! bitter thoughts after .awhile, but! oh, they cannot take the loneliness : from the days, or the weariness from the nights, for this grief must be life-long.
