If anybody i"v;T la ny part or me worm ia suspecieu " M?ltli .i AlullloatfAn lt him Com tA Cleveland county, and sing: ' "Thl is the place I long have sought 'V .-Anj mmimut hlwailRA f found it tlOt." In the first place we have no roads, and thank God. don't want any. The Mlt ressnn to be aagianed la. that our fathers before us didn t have any and we are no better than they. If we are ' no better It stands to reason we are "worse; for nobody can keep from get- ' ting either better or worse. '.:' Our roads are acular proof that we ' are two hundred yeara behind the times. We really have no ronds, but have lines of mud holes from one place i to the next. A few days ago, the commissioners condemned a mud hole between two towering banks and appointed a Jury of five men to lay oft a road some where else. This the Jury proceeded to do, placing the proposed highway, of course, on some fallow field. These fields were not valuable for farming purposes, for several fanlies had deserted them, to make ends meet at a cotton mill. The jury assessed damages at rates ' of $25 per acre. Thla was met with In dignant protest by land owners, pro ceeding to remind a person of the an nual land survey. On these occasions then revile each other while dogs, great, small, short and fall, meet and argue the matter with teeth and paws. On this occasion every man affected got out a petition. Any man can cir culate a petition, and no matter what It calls for, can get signers. Petitions have been circulated here to hang Sam Jones, to hang W. J. Bryan, to hang President Roosevelt, and about every man approached has either signed them or made his mark. Counter pe titions have also been circulated, de claring Sam Jones a consecrated Chris tian, and W. J. Bryan and President -Roosevelt to be devoted patriots of whom the world was not worthy. The men who clamored for their blood gen erally signed the counter petitions with the same cheerful alacrity with which they took upon themselves the rule of avengers In first petition. The first petition In the road matter declared that a certain point in the Rutherford ton and Llncolnton road was past navigation, and that ten thousand men In ten thousand years ' eoutd not make it a decent highway. The counter petition solemnly swore that the condemned point In the thor oughfare was a thing of beauty and a Joy forever, and that the princely do main where the Jury recoisended the new road, was worth 3800 per acre. Result, things were placed about In Statu gro. My political adherents are getting more and more numerous. Three months ago we were a spike team, comprising a R. F. D. man, a profes sion of a saw mill, and your Uncle Corn Cracker. In two short months a pair of adherents have flocked to our standard, and they are of the most pronounced, tallow-faced. woolly necked and unwashed variety. That makes fire, and who knows what may happen, ere the close of th 20th Cen tura:. Possibly I may not live till the dawn of the Mat ctntury. I know 1 would not if It were left to the rising vote, hut th party that builds good roads and taxes dogs Is coming a bit, coming slowly. , , Hon. J. Y. Joyner Is now making a series of educational speeches In this county. Supt. R F. Falls Is wltn him, and good crowds are turning oot. The plowmen work In daylight and send the cooks, while the ccrrollne battalion go at night and lot the lords of creation sleep. Farmers arc behind by reason of wet weather, and henre. Utilize every day fit to plow. On Friday night, April t, Hupt. Joy ner spoke at Iaundale. This plaae contains Piedmont High School, ably superintended by Prof. W. A. Burns, and his corps of assistants. Thla fins been a very successful term, and hence fires are beginning on the educational Joyner wan happily Introduced by Hupt. Falls, as the great educator of this Htate. The speaker referred to the Savior taking a little child as the perfect type of the kingdom of heaven. The old prophet says. "A little child hall lead them." Th future destiny of North CarolIriH hinges on what we do with the little child. Our future progress and prosperity depends on education and culture.

Large N ember of Permits Granted, Both for BuHlnees Houses and Resi dences. Correspondence of The Observer. Ashevllle, April 21; ulldlng activity in Ashevllle this summer promises- to be greater than ever before In the history of the city. Every week Build ing Inspector Francis O. K.'s a string of permits and thus early In the sea son there are new houses going up In every portion of Ashevllle. The per mits requested specify both resident and business houses and those in a position to know declare that this building activity Will go on bx leaps and bounds as the summer progresses, that plans are under consideration for thousands of dollars' worth of com meivilal buildings and that there will be a larger number of new buildings erected in Ashevllle during the year 1906 than during any previous year In the clty'a history. At last night's session of the board of aldermen applications were made and granted for the election of 12 new structures within the city's corporate llmlu at a cost of more than $40,000. Included In the permits granted were three business houses. Last week a number of permits were granted, while the fli-st week in April permits to the amount of $36,000 were issued by the board of aldermen. A great quantity of lumber Is being shipped to Ashe vllle to meet the building demand and still there is a scarcity In some Instances and buildings are delayed accordingly. Ashevllle Is on a build ing boom that started several years ago and which haa Increased every year since. Although more than 150 new residences were built last year and many thus far this year, vacant hous es are by no means a drug on the market and every new house built to rent has a taker long before It Is completed. In many Instances leases are effected six months and a year be fore the Intended occupant secuies possession. COMMENCEMKNT AT CORNELIUS. Mr. II. 7j.
