McSweeney takes two oc- j aaiona in his message to lament ^ he movem* nt of population from ountry to city. He attributes ,, he movement to two things: bad ^ ai oadu in ? the country end bettor choola in the eitv. These considerations have some .( nfluence in the matter, but are P ot the main reasons. Most of / ai he movement from coi ntry to . i,r ity is of young people, who cure j | lothing for t>ad roada or wood i O r* I g choola either, but they go to the j. ity because it offers them more ^ pportunities of making a living j nd more attractions in a great ' <= rc nany waya. And it may be said ^ rith truth that a large proportion ^ f the yeung men who go from , ountry to city better themselves ^ >y the move. Those wiio go be? 1 -i eai tuM of an ambition for which ; he country offers no field are alrays benefited; those who go be ! ecausd of a restless idle, roving ! U lsposition would be of no ac- j. ojnt anyway, and therefore the ] c< ountry is the better otr in getting hi id of them. j j* There is no harm in the move- I & lent from country to city so long 1 s the people who move find profi- ! able employment and business, j 'hose who remain in the country ; 4 etain all the advantages the conn o (I ry offers; infact they have better , . % i n pportnnities; for if production is sssened by the diminution of sborers left in the fields prices re higher for those who have arm products to sell, and laud is CI heaper because of the fact that ^ here are not so many people de- ; iring it. : When all this it said it remians p rue that two great needs for the Sl ountry are good roade and good chools. And both these can be oh* aiaed by the country people if ^ roper efforts are made. There ^ as l>een great improvement in the ^ ormer particular in many coun ^ ies -wherever there have been | . ounty officers capable of attending o the business of their office and I ict afraid of doing their duty. In ~ ireenvillecounty,for instance, the I oade have been improved wonder- | ul because the county has had the ! ight kind of a supervisor. In the 1 >ther particular, as previously in | ] imated, the country should depend hi nore on itself and determine to do 1 w is town and cities have to do? ? hat is, to tax themselves and pay t or good schools. Country dis ? riot* can have just aa good schools t0 a the cities have if thay will fol- y nw tha aama plan to gat them; ti nd they would no douht do thia j 1 f tha politiciana would quit an ' J enraging them to look to other hi etion for the money needed. $tOO | Jr. K.
