We nave often thought that ihe {ion. W. H. Parker bad greal reason to be proud of bis children, and cow we would amend that opinion by adding ibat bis children should be very proud of their father. The grand father ThcS. Parker banded down a goodiy heritage. Hi* sons preserved ibt proud possession, and the younger general loc who are in the active scenes of life, have taken up the work which baB so long been carried on by their fathers.

This is the mon >nly point in the Piedmont section port ivhere the train will stop to do any at sc ?vork, add every one who can do so T1 jught to take the opportunity oflearn- ing ng for himself what can be done in dati< ;be making of roads with neccessary who Machinery handled by men who are of tt ixperts in the business. hote So much has been said and written vale n regard to this subject of good roads ers f ;hat the people of the South are prac- for a :ically in thorough accord with the dea that good roads are an acquisition tud benefit to any community. Every )ne is convinced that the lack of good roads is one of the greatest drawbackb r* th? crowfh and nro9oeritv of the South, and to supply this lack is one Gi )f the most serious problems before us ,o-day. A net-work of main roads juilt under scientific direction with % lurable and permanent material will V ?lone meet the urgent demand of our J ural districts and market towns. The J J ines of competition are being drawn J aiore closely every year and the mar- w ;in of profits are growing more slender # m consequence, so that it is imperative 4 :o emyloy every element looking to 4 low-priced production and cheap dis- A :ribution of the crops that are grown a Dn the farms, and which are to be con- \ mmed by the non-producers. The en- J iire population of any section is inter- J y jsted in whatever may contribute to J yc ihis result, and it is clearly demon- r gr jtrated that good roads are a prime # y Factor in the development of the coun- 4 Ka ;ry, while providing the greatest econ- 4 to :>my in bringing the producer and con- 4 iumer together, so that both classes a p will profit by easy and cheap trans- X i portation over our public roads. J How can we secure better roads in J . sjnnth 9 Til is is the oueation to be * iiscussed by practical men in the Good f Uoads convention which will be held 0 in this city while the road-making is # aeing demonstrated on the roads and 6 streets. Organized and practical lines J q must be laid down to secure the results a ca limed at, aud it is necces.tary that X jvery citizen shall give his moral and i financial support to measures which J ire intended for the benefit of all. K c Gfood roads mean a direct benefit to 9 svery farmer, as there is no plau that # ivill do more to enhance the value of lands aud develop rural communities ? than permanent and well-constructed highways. Nothing can be found to th contribute more to the contentmeut ?{}( md happiness of a farming population ca tnd whatever conduces to this state of LO iflairs on the farm confers lasting ben- ^ jfits upon towns aud cities, for the kli tirnunoritw ?n<l nrl vullftpment Of the farmers are quickly reflected in the growth and wealth-producing chararter of their neighbors. ? While there is great unanimity upon I111* the advantages of good roads, there is dre n reality very little practical know 1jdge as to the means and appliances "or securing this desirable result, and lience the proposed convention ought i>ot :o attract men from every walk of life, *'ou c ?specially those who are engaged in T7UaViam XTh wrt i f 11 i<n Antf .
