At the comwencchient of the new year It i» well to make good remdu- I * -gk tions. Mo*c thoughtful people deter mine at the beginning of each- new twelve month to lie better and to. do better than in the year ju*t dead. Such resolutions are, a* a rule, gen- era! a7id, thefcfoTfi ibTiT,• Vns 1 iy*twrgUt•' ten and broken thou if they wero^pay- ticniar and apccltlc. It l* like one starting upon a Journey through a a|t range cotin try. Il be baa only ageti- «ral idea of direction to guide iiim he Is likely to go aatray when the sun by day or the atari by night are obscured Jby elouda. fiat If he U provided with ronipwaa or map he can keep his right vourae apll* of fog or darkness. So, if one making now rcsolvce shall deline in what way he shall strive To ale better It is lc*a likely that the year rotul be shall follow will be down grade, though paved with good inten- tiona. . And while each Individual, knowing his own self, shall mako the deterniina tions beat suited to character and sur- rouudidg*, there are othef resolutions that all who are or hope to be-good cit liens should make: To preserve and uplift the good name of the State, the mother of all, to make life and propfr- ty safe within iu borders, to hold the law a sure refuge for the wronged, the sure punisher of the wrong doer, to ouUtvato pence and sure progress and that broad charity that forgives as we would be forgiven, Is a tirst duty and •hould be the last love ol each Carolin ian. wf.. /-r—^ In tbU enddavor there should be Hone of th|p'spirit AT thc.J’liarisee, none wfAhe plucking oDtho mote out of the neighbor’* eye, w hile the" beam reT inaitiH to ffini the vlafon of the- rctorm- er. It Is lit human nature to make scape gnats of others, to lay I he 'blame for existing or of threatening ifnron other shoulder*. There may be ground* at time* for such self justill- cation, but the defence would be better • If the unawer were a tyea of duty done and not of wrong and weakness in an other. And this good example should start ft the top and not stop unlil it readies the bottom of pur civilisation. Those highest in the public esteem have the largest breadth of iutluoiice. .Opportunities for turning the new leaf are near and numerous. In Ida animal message to the (tenoral Assembly m-xt wcik the Governor may give new suggestions a. to existing .. auid UixeaUiblw Ul« ami the urecau tions and remedies that wilj best pro vent or cure them. The-irfgislature at it^ jierstori so near * can score great lmproveiiiei\t nver the General Assemblies of recent years by remembering that it* members are trustees for the State and their gather ing In Colombia should have less of tbs character Of a training school for fu- political advancement.

And I think that the town could improve more if the citizens wonld cut down the uuderbrnsh nnd paint up the city. Everything wa* complaining of hard times, yet it seemed to me Hint they all/were doing well. Mossback- ism will ruin anyutown in existtyiae.
