Macon Telegraph: The nomi
nation of Congressman Clements
appears to be certain. The Seventh
would have hard work to find a bet
ter representat i ve.
The office of Notarv Public comes
appointment of the Supreme
Court Judge upon recommendation
of the Grand Jury—it's not trans
ferable for a valuable considera
] tion.
! The Mills Bill has passed the
House, and we believe in it? pres- 1
3nt form even, a certain protection
ist of our town would know it if he i
/.met it in the road.” although a few
nonthspast he declared it would
,oe doctored beyond recognition.
1 To believe a majority of the hot- J
ist Republicans and Democratic)
rapers, tve must conclude that l
.bout all the Democratic voters
' rave gone over to the Republican ’
anks, and vice versa. If thisi
filing continues we nniy T expect
ipleveland and Harrison to change j
Hides.

PUBLIC ROADS.
r I he News grows very eloquent
on the subject of roads, but like
; the rest ot the advocates of the
present system, dwells upon a sup
posed attack upon the good citizens
of this common wealth, and antici
pates us to tlie extent to accuse us
of wanting to replace the present
class of slaves with more honora
' hie ones I.’) 1 proposed no system
il never defined my position,except
to the present law. But one could
; readily see that we had no inciina
j tion to dodge the issue. How is it
i with the News? One whole col
-1 unin devoted to the t'oggin of our
; weakest arguments. Did ’em fog?
I Set the voyagers ol the ‘May
j flower ’ the lieores of inde
pendence, who fled, who fought,
i bled and died ior the equality and
! independence of themselves and
posterity, come from the tombs to
shed but one tear upon the perver
sion oi their will.
Now the News proceeds to show
us that ii we would work five days
in-each year, within live years we
would see a marked change in the
roads, we have never said there:
would not be a change, but we will j
ask who made the change?
There are two values without
which we could not exist, except
as savages. They are inseparable,
lho oppression 01 one will destroy
the other.Tliey are realty and labor.
Oppress labor and really goes down
Oppress realty and labor is worth
less.
The next greater essential to the
development oi men is public high
ways, and they cannot be made
without both labor and realty, and
to do so will result in a failure, an
example ot which we have.
Our law intends to invest certain
individuals with power to execute
its provisions, but it bears the
marks upon its lace of a disastrous
failure. Jl iias been in operation
ever since the settlement of the
country and we have no roads yet,
but you will say the law lias not
been enforced, and will say, it never
will be, and for the reason that the
few cannot force the many.
In the ih ;ih Dist. there are about
eleven miles ot road. It is a long
(listnet. Four miles otthi r »ad is in
the upper hall and seven in the
lower half, a majority of hands in
the upper half. Now will the News
tell us how the commissioners can
distribute the hands upon an ‘qual
ity with the amount of labor to be
done. 1 ell us how an overseer cun
coni pell a hand to furnish a certain
tool, when that tool was not to be
obtained. He cannot borrow when
’.here is none to borrow. If
you can com poll a man to use his
hoc, pick or shovel on the road wh}-
not his horse wagon or plow. Right
here we will relate an incident. Last
year the commissioners appointed
the hands to the respective roads.
An over-seer of one of the branch
roads warned and worked a lot of
hands belonging to the main road,
after which they would not work.
They were summoned to appear at
trial as defaulters, but were dis
missed upon the ground that they
could not be* fined after working
one road. If any sensible man can
see file praetibility of such a sys
tem let him arise and explain.
1 here is no question whether or
not the man who has no land
be subject to road duty. 1 have
[never advocated his non-subjec
l tion. Ido not advocate'that the
j system be so regulated as to bear
j equally upon realty and labor, and
j lU) t crush one for the benefit of the
■ other. There are twelve land hold
ers in this district subject to road
1 ( lniy and many more not subject.
Quote lair with us Mr. Editor, we
( intimated that those twelve
bum holders should alone make the
■o.ms. biR. that tie land within the
bounds ot that district should bear
an equal part of the burden. The
I'Cibhe will please read mv article
again, out d 0 us-art that the land
holdt r ■ ouid as well alien'd to pay
■ 1 * j c ■i'od., as ’he man who has not

part of that. It is a shame, and its
advocate is a Herod. J. B. LEE.
- -*►
Another column for the benefit
of Mr. Lee on public roads, and
y* 1 we are free to confess an utmr
failure on our pari to locate his po
sition just when we believe w.
“have him pat,” he slips our fingers
and says he “never said it.”
Wo do not care to bore our read
ers with futher discussion of an im
inetorin! issue and will close the
matter this week as far as we are ,
concerned..
Why bless your soul brother Lee,
do you think a poor sixi* r n year,
old hoy could bo forced to bring*
upon the road a steam shove), or a
rock crusher? No, a road hand is
compelled only to bring ordinary j
fanning tools, even street rollers
are notinclud- d in the list.
See Sect, 020. < lodeof Ga. for tools j
required by road hads. The “inei- !
dent’ related by Mr. Lee, only il- 1
lust rates tie- meaning of Sect. till,
of the Code, which doubtless * Mr. j
Lee has not read. The above sec-!
tion may give some light on the!
| matter of an equal appointment
of the hands, and we advise Mr. Lee
fo read it, and all our road laws
(which are not very much) before
he condemns a system about- which
jgo knows so little seemingly
j While Mr. Lee s tems well posted
[on Biblical and Japanese history,
I (as per allusion to Herod and
j Mikuda) his knov. k dgt of the road
1 laws seems unpardonabiy deficient.
By illustration of the bT-lth Dist.
[ Mr. Lee give u 1 what Im no doubt
1 considers a difficult urc-blem—its
!
simply u fox and goose puzzle to
Mr. Lee, and may be worked thus,
to be determined by the distribu
tion of hands. Take every man
out of the “four mile half” not
needed and place him as far into
the “seven mile half” as the three
mile limit will no nr it (Iron him
t x ; V
■here and carry other bands is far
! in the same direct ion as von may
choose, not over three miles from
tls ir residence. If this is
nokf lear. nud if Mr. L ■ will eo;.m
up and take dinner with us, we
i will make Ibe whole matter clear
i to his mind, :ind convince him Qur
