FOR BETTER ROAPS. proper Sapenrldon, Taxes Paid la Money and Wide Tires. There Is groat neej jn this state of more Intelligent and experienced road engineers and supervisors, so a j to avoid a wasting of money and labor In carrying out worthless plans for work. Our people should realize that the building of good public, roads requires as much training nn.l experience as does the building of railroads, said Goveruor Russell of N'?rth Carolina. The system of compulsory labor on public roads has been abandoned in most enlightened countries. In our ouii? it is questionable whether we nre Id a position to adept any uniform system upon this subject because of the wide variance of the conditions existing in the different localities. ? In some places the property holders B are able to bear the road tax, and the W circumstances surrouudiug them are aucb ss to make it to tbelr interest to j TOO OFTE* MKT WITH. do away with the compulsory system. Id other localities perhaps the road tax would amount to such n hardship as to i ike It Impracticable. The plan of employing short term convicts on the roads lias proved ecoR comical and satisfactory in a number of counties In this and other states, and the system could be well extended. In several states even the long term convicts have, with satisfactory results. been employed in quarrying and crushing stone for macadamizing public roads, and the material thus prepared has been sold to the various counties and municipalities at the actual cost of preparing It, thus reducing Its cost one-half or two-thirds. Of course no amount of legislation will of Itself radically change the existing conditions, but perhaps laws providing for the working of the public roads may be enacted so ns to stimulate and direct better work in this direction. It Is coming to be generally rcccg nixed that the use of wide tires on all wagons and other draft vehicles will I greatly aid the keeping of public roads In better condition. In a number of states laws have been enacted encouraging the introduction and use of these wide tires, and the results there are said to be highly satisfactory. It is desirable that legislation looking In this ~ direction should be enacted In North Carolina. WATER BREAKS. Pret?r Wax to Prevent Wanhonta on Hillaldea. In order to prevent the washing out of earth roads on hills, it sometimes becomes necessary to construct water breaks?that Is, broad, shallow ditches arranged so as to catch the surface water and carry It each way into the side ditches. Such ditches retard traffic to a certain extent and often result In overturning vehicles. Consequently they should never be used until all other means have failed to cause the water to flow Into the side channels. Nel thor Bhould they be allowed to croas the entire width of the road diagonally, but should be constructed in the shape tho letter V. This arrangement per?nlts teams following the middle of the road to cross the ditch squarely and thus avoid the danger of overturning. These ditches should not be deeper than Is absolutely necessary to throw the , water off the surface, aud the part in the center should be the shallowest. Unfortunately farmers and road masters have a fixed Idea that the one way to prevent bills, long and short, from washing Is to heap upon them quantities of those original tumular obstructions knowu Indifferently as "thankyou-ma'ams," "breaks" or "hummocks," and the number they can squeexe in upon a single bill is positively astonishing. A Oar* of ??n? meads. ^^The more one Improves the drainage of a sand road the more deDlorable becomes Its condition. Nothing will rnln one quicker than to dig a ditch on each sldo and drain all the water away. The best way to make such a road firm is to keep it constantly damp. Very busby or shady trees alongside such roads prevent the evaporation of water. The usual way of mending roads Which run over loose, sandy soils Is to cover iue surface whu tough clay or mix the clay and sand together. This Is quite an expensive treatment If the clay has to be transported a great distance, but the expense may be reduced by improving only eight or ten feet or half of the roadway. Wasting Pnbllo Money. The building of macadam roads offers opportunities for manifold mistakes and for an enormous waste of public funds. If ever it be true that what Is worth doing Is worth doing well, It is emphatically true In the building of stone roads. If a macadam road cannot be built right from the start. It bad better not be built at all to prevent a needless waste of mon%ey. ifirery good macadam road testifies to the value of durable highways. While every stone road Improperly hullt throws a shadow of doubt upon the movement fee better roads.?Otto Deruer. MOB THREATENS WILLIAMS. Well Known Kmlgratlon Agent In Jul! mt Madison. I.I ADisow, G?., Jan. 10.?W. A Wil? l.f.mi, the emigration agent, who during the past six weeks has seut 2,500 negroes oct of Morgan conntj into Mis-ties'.ppt snd Arkansas, has been in jail here 24 hoars as a measure of safety, a mob of futiiure having threatened hia life at Greensboro Saturday afternoon. WiUiauu who is kuown all over the south as "Peg Leg Williams," has been in Morgan, Greene ur.d Newtou counties for some time au<t had engaged a number of negroes to leuvo Greensboro Saturday night for the west uud was there arranging for their departure. The negroes have beeu leaving the farmers iu large numbers and many ot them are entirely without help. J lie decided, for their owu protection, to have Williams arrested. He wan charged with violating a county ordinance, and. refusing to pay a tax, was taken to jail. The farmers, many of whom were in town, were threatening and the news of the arrest spread along the line of the Georgia railroad. Saturday night it was learned that a mob of farmers was coming up from Covington to help deal with Williams, and the sheriff decided to move the offender. This was done, Williams being landed in jail hero. "MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE." Preacher Scores Jullit Morrison For Her Conduct Slue* th Trial. Chattanooga, Jan. io, ?Rev. J. A. j Brougher, pastor of the First Baptist church, preached on the subject of murder last night, basing his remarks upon the recent tric.l of Julia Morrison James. He said: "When such miscarriages of justico as that are set up as examples before the people of the country, we must expect pistol carrying,lyucbings and mobs. The verdiot was actually applauded by many of our citiaens, which of neceacity must show an unhealthy di regard for the orlme of murder in the publio miud.

Birmingham, Ala., Jan. 10.?Official figure* an the shipments of pig iron from Alabama and Tennessoe during the year 189? show a large increase over the wovequent of the previous year. The total for the paii. year amounted to 1,571,670 tons, an increase of 218,600 tons.

That this decreaso was not greater in ' faco of the extraordinary home demand aud the high domestic price is to be accounted for only by the fact or largo foreign bookings made before the domestic boom began.
