The anti-bond talkers do net Have so much at he a it the welfare of the Stato as they do their possible po litical advancement at some future time. Ia taring bonds for highways, public edacatioa, development of State commerce and caring for the State's unfortunate, the people of today are not pane in* on a burden to the people of another generation—to “posterity,’• ay the reactionaries an Saying. In any county now recently equipped with good roads tvldcnco to combat the contention is to be -— 1UV4UWU VO IWR for it, The road* aw paying tor tbcmoelvro whan the State system It yet in iU infancy. Even before the State ia connected up from one coun ty seat to another, the roads are llqul dating their own debt Where a father of “posterity" today is worth ode dollar, posterity, itself, will be worth anywhere from ten, twenty, fif ty and even ono hundred dollars by reason of 'wealth created by good roads. In short, where the people of today are able to pay one dollar, •‘posterity" wM be able to pay fifty and a hundred-fold. The argument of the man who would forefead "posterity'’ from the shouldering of an overpowering debt bus ha<l tocul application of a prac tical sort in Charlotte in recant (lays. It b having practical application in every town of good streets and good roads in North Carolina. Only yes terday the old Observer offlee on Tryon street, that wan bought some years ago by Thompidn* and Cald well for 30,000, mu sold for $173. 000. That was a case of “posterity” paying the debt. But while this debt was paid by posterity, posterity had become rich enough to pay It and gat one hundred cents on the dollar of the purchase price.
