Good Roads for Randolph County Bj Brae CrTen At, the commencement of Why Not Academy, it seems that my in i dental reference to g oi roads was misunderstood, so that some expla ta. tion of it is necessary, I said there that I did not belieta the wise method would be to issue a million dollars worth of bonds, and this iraa constiued by Bome persocs to mean that I am opposed to any bond issne for the purpose. In the first place, this county can save eeveral thousands of dollars a year from present ezpens.'S, ard de vote this to the use of n ais. In particular, the salary eystem for all county officials, which the next Leg islature will probably enact for our County and possibly for the whole state, will save a g od deal every year. This saving, I would devote to the paying of interest on good roads bonds, and issue bo .da t J the amount of one bundiei thousand dollars. Of this amount, twenty thousand dollars should be spent for road ma chinery for use in the townships, al lowing every township the constant nt e of a good scraper and roller and the opportunity to make use of a rock crusher. The remainder of the proceeds of the bond issue should be expinde t on t) e principal high ways of i he coumy connecting the leading towia of the county with the county seat, the townships pay ing part of the cost. I have known something of the road woik in Mecklenburg siuee the beginning. They have the finest of roads there and they have made the county rich by it, but the roads have cost a great deal more than they should Lave ccs , and people are learning by tnia aud r taer 8;mi. lar experience. For Randolph to build rot.ds by that system for th whole uouoty wul require h bud ij sue of five hundred tauussnd dnll.irs at leas', cd to that 1 urn opps-i. By tne system here outliue'.i, tow r ships would be relieved cf a-y expanse for machinery, ecC.. ini every dollar of the road tax could he used on the roiis of the tjvtu shijs aid besid s, the f r aers eouiu have the uee of the machinery f 1 extra service oatheroids whoever dedired. Then by a practical p'.au for building roads higli in the mid die so they can net retain the rame, and scraping and rolling them legu larly and systematically and contm uilly, we can make good roads every where and tta very small expense in comparison with the old sjtteui. Severa counties have put $2500.00 a mile into roads that in a few years 'were Wjrn out and full of mud holes and luts. The secret cf good roads is for eomeone who knewa how to keep woiking on them, instead of build ing expensive ones and then allow ing tbem to run dew. By this plan, every mile of puolic road in Randolph county can in five years be made serviceable in the very worst weather, and they can be kept in good condition all the time, and made better and better by the ad ding of sand ard gravel. If such a plan is adopted by Ran dolph county, it will not only give ua good roada. but it will make this county prosperous and ccnt.-nted, so tbat there will never beany more talk of any section of it being cut eff and pu; into another county, The subject ought to be discussed now, and the people shot.ll let it be knowu what they think about these things. .

Wenk and unhealthy kidneys are re sponsible for much sickness and suffering. inereiore, u muney trouble is permitted t I continue, serious re sults are most likely to follow.

Huge Turtle Colonel Bonkeineyer, the general manager and chief owner of the American Motir Company, handlirg Overland and Marion cars, was over in High Point Friday. While he was there the hardest rain of the year fell, and with this fierce rain storm th re came down from the heavens a large turtle weighing 25 pounds. The turtle fell on the sidewalk in front of Ring's drrg stor and tore a bole in the hard cement so large that it attracted wide attention. But the curious part of the taiurf was not only the coining djtvu of the tnrtle from the skies, but the dreadful fall did not phase the thing at all. It just crawled off as if nothing had nap pf ned. This is the tale that Colonel Bonkemejer told yesterday. The colonel says he can prove this tnrtle story by one Will Ring, the drug gist, and several other bystanders. Greensboro News.

Will Probably Lower Coal Rate The building of the Norfolk South ern Railway from Aloeinarle or Norwood to Charlotte, the surveys tor wmcn will soon be completed, will unqueEt onitlj have somethirg to do With reducing coal rates to tLe Queen City if Churiolte shippers cpn handle ths nutter prep rly, it is said. Ibis main-line extension will give a connection with the Soutfc- oound which runs into Winston Salem where the Norfolk & Western will be tapped. The Norfolk & Western is tne great coal-carrying road and has heretofore manifested a willingness to reduce rates wherever conditions called for reduc tions. At present all coal ' that comes into Charlotte is handled either by the Southern or Sea board at this end of the Hue and the question of securing reductions has oeen a very difficult one. The new road when finished will give an in dependent connection, which will aud a iuiidiacuf in the aelivery of coal into Charlotte. The name of Sidna Allen, the Virginia outlaw, wascallad in Unit ed Scates court at Greensboro last week to answer to a charpe of per jury, but there was no response and a $5,000 bond wms thus forfeited.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they can not reach the disep.sed portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by con stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rubbing sound or im perfect hearir.fr, nnd when it is en tirely closed, Deafness is the re sult, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube re stored to its normal conditlon.hear ing will be destroyed forever;nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca tarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
