The ultimatum was made as th committee has tiredl of its eI'ortLs I. their' behalf and has reached the con elnsion that the immigrants aire no desirous otf working andh not dleserv~ ing of any further consideration a its hands.

The Value of Good Roads... G Gaffney Ledger. We *have hammeted in season and out of season the subject of good roads and while we are free to con fess that there has been little impres - sion made so far, still we are not going to give up the fight. As every - well informed man knows, Mecklen burg county, North Carolina, has the finest r-oads in the South. They have spent thousands upon thousands of ldollars on road building, and yet t,bey are not Content, as they are soon to vote oil a hond issue for the purpose of extending these roads. Simply to illushate Wilat the people up there thinlk of !_,oods. roads and to Alow tile vallue of goods roads to tile farmer, we reproduce tile following from a re -cent issue of the Charlotte News: Were you to pick up any citizen of Mecklenburg county who is well in formed on conditions of the county, and ask Ilim,, what he considers the -reatest advantage Mecklenburg county has over the other counties of the State and country at large ana from what source 1he considers more blessings and benefits arise without a doubt he would reply, "1from hler Irood roads." There is lint a doubt but what this answer would be correct. The public roads of this county have )een for years and are now the chief source of pride to our citizens and it is through this channel that we have re ceive(l more valuable advertising than by any other means. The citizens of this county are soon to have an opportunity to make these loadj;s still better, and to extend theni further, and we appeal to every citi zen interested in the welfare and up building of his county to go to the polls on election day and vote for the bond issue, which means progress as against stagnation and decline. In connection with the blessings arisiig from good roads the New York Iferald, of a recent date, pays tle following tribute to Mechlenburg county roads: . ''Ii an address at Mobile, Ala., John Caft, said that the cost to the 1 farmers of the South is fifty cents onl each bale of cotton for all average haul of eight miles. - "If there Were good roads the cost would be re(need to 16 Cents a hale. , - Est imaltinig a cr~op of 1,000,000 bales, - thlis w%ould1 mean ai saving of $340,000 a '"it costs under tile p)resenlt road f conditions twenty-fiv'e cents to hlaul a toln of fertilizer a mile. With the !good roads tile ('Ost would b)e eighlt (cnts a tonl. I. "'Meekleniburg county, Northl Car olina, has the finest macadamized y roads, anid it is b)eing done withl con -vict labor. It costs an average of 1 25 eents a day to guard, feed andl care it for convict labor whlen it. is managed s on buiness105 princ(iples. - ''As for tile convict himself, statis ties show thaIt 00 per cent of those e who are wiorked iln the 01pen air, prlo - perly fed and( guarded, return to their y famnilies anid cease to 1he a menace I or charge to tile State, while of those I who ar'e kept iln prison, or worked iln mines, sawmills, or similar places 85 e per1 cenit. become hardened criminals. i ''Nor (do I think it right to p)ut the --lonlest wage ear'ner in completition t wvithl convict labor, 01' the mlanulfae. -- turing indusatry iln competition wvith t tile oneC thut hires cheap conlviet la bor. b "Inidianfa hlas more than 17,000 - miles of good grav'el roads.
