In its large special industrial edition for December l i it present? a survey of tho Southern held of enterprise from the view of twenty-three prominent and successful Southern men, who ar?4 "experts in iron, cotton, lumber, phos phate and other bases of Southern manufacturing, or enjoying well-earn ed distinction in Southern develop ment." These writers are not only hopeful but enthusiastic, and it is in spiring to follow their outline of our beloved hind's achievements ami pos sibilities. Tho Record itself sings the song of the "lusty South*1 at a high pitch of enthusiasm. m . mt An experiment is being made in Washington County, tia., on th?? line of rural school consolid?t ion and free transportation to and from school that will be watched with interest mit only in (?oorghl but in other States. Tile plan that has been in operation, ami has so far proved eminently satisfac tory, provides lor the consolidation td eight or ten small schools of one teach er each into one academic institution with several instructors. Transporta tion to and from school <-osts, under th?'experimental pinn, about one dol lar a month per capita. The arrange ment for continuous sessions is made hy privat?; sub.-ei ?ptions ol' the patrons. The plan has milch lo commend it. ami though the school system ol'this Coun ty is quite a satisfactory one, it would lu- well to watch lb?' success of our t??'orgia mdghhors" venture willi a view io further perfecting thc splemlid svstcm now m \ ??gu?'. The coming session of tin- General Assembly will, it is hoped, realize the vital concern ?d' attracting capital to the State by providing for such inter nal improvements as have been so much neglected in the past. Wc it*fer specifically to the building and main tenance of ronda, the great arteries of trade, the nerves of commerce and the pulse of pride and prosperity. With out good roads trade is stagnant, com merce is prostrated amino better index is wanted to establish mi estimate ol' a country's thrift ami welfare, lt luis been demonstrated hero in our midst that it is a waste of money to construct roads of clay, for not one. road in the County can bo termed a permanent thoroughfare. Given, then, tho amount of money expended on dirt roads in this County during the past six years with very littl?v to show lor it, who would oppose the substitution of a law providing for permanent stone roads, though the mileage must necessarily "bc restricted to the constitutional levy? lt is true, wc might ask for the privi lege of floating long term bonds tor this purpose in order to facilitate the construction, and it might bc the part of wisdom so to ?lo, as we are inclined to think, because with tho work well started we*should not w ifdi to be hand ? .i],; : Mil ? rt ,. ! - !. ? i >jn fish .
