Another important railroad proposi
tion, whirh will be a great boon to the
set iion traversed, Is that to build a
lino from Winston-aalom to Yadkin-
ville. A chaitor will be ai>|jlied for
Hoon for thf now company which will
undertake the work. Mr. A. H. Eller,
one of tho leading sjiirlts lii the pro
ject, states that It Is likely the road
will be extended on from Yadklnvllle
to Elkin, N. C., where it v/ould con
nect with the Elkin and Allegheny
Railroad. In Yadklu and the counties
to be penetrated, are to be found some
of tho finest timber and farming lands
af the state, and the one drawback to
lumbering has been inadequate facili
ties for getting the goods to the mar
kets.
GOOD ROADS WORK.
A report from Reidsvllle, N. C.,
states that a proposition to issue $500,-
000 for good roads work in Rocking
ham county, North Carolina, is meet
ing with favor. A hill will likely be
passed at the present session of the
legislature allowing this county to
vote on a half million dollar cond issue
and tho predictions are that it will
carrj’.
Cumberland county has just decided
to expend $300,000 on good roads, and
a similar amount is to be spent for
the same purpose In Wake county.
The good roads infection is statc-wido |
and in all sections bi.g sums are being
appropriated to iironiotc uood roal
building.
A movement is under way in
Raleigh for a trana-state high-
w’ay, and it will undoubtedly be suc
cessful. The legislature will, no
doubt, give valuable aid to the pro
motion of good roads work, and 1911,
from present indications, will Avitness

Chariotte-Wllmington Highway.
The Charlotte to Wilmtngton high

gates which gathered at the Laurin-
ourg convention from ever county
between Wilmington and Charlotte

and we are satisfied they haven’t the
slightest intention of doing so. Never
theless. it is a good idea to keep right

time to go to work to carry out the
roseate plans set on foot at that live

If we had had popular election of
Fenators the agony of the senatorial
content would already be over,—Knox-

And herein is embodied another very
Bound argument In favor of the pop
ular election of aenatora. The long-
drawn out Btrugglp in Tennessee just
now is only another "horrible exam
ple” of the iniquities of the present
lystem. Not only Is tne valuable time

iestfl, but bittemeas Is Injected which

scheme.
For the purpose of reaching a com
mon agreement and the appointment
of suitable persons to have charge of
the work in each county, a conven
tion is hereby railed to meet in the
courthouse in Raleigh, on Tuesday,
Feb. 14. 1911, at noon; and each coun
ty. city and town along the route of
said highway is requested to appoint
one or more d>. .egafps to attend such
meeting. The number of delegates is
rmlimited; but, whenever called for,
the voting will be by counties, each
county having one vote; and no coun
ty will be expected to yield on any
point where its delegates consider tho
vital Interests of that county to be at
stake.
The Wake County Good Roads As-
s^^ociation requests the boards of coun
ty commissioners of each county to
select one or more delegates who w ill
agree to attend this meei^ing; and
each city and town on the said route
is likewise requested to appoint one
or more delegate.s, whicli appointment
may be made either by the mayor or
board of aldernum. Each chamber of
commerce and each retail merchants’
association is also requested to ap
point one or more delegates w’ho will
attend. Each Farmers’ Union is liice-
wise requested to appoint one or
more delegates. His excellency, ths
governor, Is requested to appoint such
a number of delesrates from the state
at large as he may deem proper.

“The United States government is
soon to send an expert road engi
neer to Wilmington to lay out the
Charlotte to Wilmington highw'ay and
if the executive committee will take
some interest in this great project it
will come around all right; but they
seem to be in winter quarters. The
highway will dump business and peo
ple into the laps of Wilmington and
that city should not let the propoS'ition
die of inertia. This road ought to be
completed by spring.”
The Star rather adopts the idea that
the fricnd.s of the highway have been
in "winter quarters.” but that mean-
w'hilo tliey haven't by any means got
ten cold feet. Nevertheless, w’e don’t
like the winter quarters habit that
generally prevails in Wilmington and
w hit: >1 seems to be peculiar to all this
coun’^ry. The winter time should not
keep us from doing things and w’e
must shake the habit.
As to the highway, how’ever, it Is
time that w’e should get busy. No
train can make headw’ay till it gets
a st.-^r!:. but wlien the engineer takes
hold of tlie throtle and the ponder
ous locomotive “chugs,” off the train
goe'’ roaring on its w'ay. When the
,gov-rnTnent engineer comes the citi
zens in the various- counties will act
as the motive power and he can start
Us off in a way that should make us
break the speed limit. I^et everybody
get up steam by the time he comei,
for that highway has to be built. It’s
got to be built.
Colonel Dockery’s steam hasn’t cool
ed a bit, and that is quite obvious
when he wantfk to clear the track for
a Lot run. “This road ought to be
completed oy spring,” he declares, but
lie forgets that the hlghw'ay is a big
r)rojfci and that spring is most on us.
The grass'v.ill soon begin to grow%
but as W’e have had our rest in “win
ter tiiarterp” v.'e should be better pre
pared not to let any grass grow un
der our feet. Keep a stiff upper lip
and don’t let your enthusiasm flicker.

The Praise That Comes From Thank
ful Charlotte People.
One kidney remedy never falls.
Charlotte j)eople rely upon it.
That remedy is Doan’s Kidney
Pills.
Charlotte testimony proves it always
reliable.
J. S. Griffith. 304 W. Tenth St.,
Charlotte, N. C., says: “About ten
years ago I began to suffer from kid
ney trouble. I was treated by a phy
sician for a long time and though I
obtained relief, it was not permanent.
My kidneys w'ere badly disordered and
I had a severe pain in the small of
may back. My kidneys failed to re
move tho uric poison from my system
and I felt dull and languid. Fortunate-
j ly learning of Doan’s Kidney Pills, I
(iecided to try them and procured a
box at R. H. Jordan & Co.’s Drug
Store. They went directly to the seat
of my trouble and by restoring my kid
neys to their normal condition, caus
ed the backache to disappear. Doan’s
Kidney Pills proved of more benefit
to me than any other remedy I had
previously taken and it therefore
gives me pleasure to speak In their
favor.”
