The Le<l»or If not responsible for the views of correspondent*. Ali correspondence should be an- de ?*• to Ed. H Deramp, Manager. GOOD ROADS. Somf. one has said that all men were crazy about one thins or an other. We confess to our share of that trait of insanity in a desire that Cherokee county should possess Rood roads. To show how much we are in ne^d of good roads the following: ar ticle by Prof. P. T. Brodie, professor of mathematics and civil engineering in Clemsou College, showing the cost of bad roads, is taken from a pam phlet issued at Clemson Agricultural college: “The proposition that good roads pav should generally need no argu ment. But the tax for bad roads of ten impresses itself so insidously as to be greatly underestimated. The farmer who has become accustomed to hauling his cotton and other freights over the hills and through the mud or deep sand, on the old road that has served his community for several generations, often does not stop to consider how badly he h vio lating those principles of profit and loss which have formed the basis of his business successes. “The director of road inquirie at Washington has learned that w^' are pa; ing on an average of twenty-five j hi- fearfully mangled about the stomach and cut elsewhere.

The following Southern officials have been in attendance at the wreck: Superintendent P. L. McManus, of Charlotte; Trainmaster T. P. Weston, of Charlotte; R. C. Harding, road- master, of Charlotte; D. A. Ballinger, supervisor, of Greenville; J. M. Bolles. suoervisor, of Spencer, N. C.; G. W. Better, supervisor of bridges and roads, Charlotte. To the Editor of The Ledger: Some weeks ago Mr. J. C. Otts oame out in a voluminous card in the pa pers, informing the people that he was out of politics and would not be a can didate for office at the coming pri mary, giving as his reason that he could not afford to make the sacrifice. In the next issue of The Ledger there appeared a communication purporting to come from some person or persons stvliug himself or themselves “Tax- oayers.” but bearing unmistakable ev THE FOURTH IN GAStON.
