Elsewhere in this paper will be found a news item in regard to a meeting which will be held in Lumberton on Tuesday of next week to consider the advisibility of making some changes in the present road law of Robeson county. We hope the meeting will be well attended and that the subject will be fully and free ly discussed. There is no ques tion of greater importance to the people of the county as a whole. The present method of working the roads does not seem to meet the necessities at all, and it holds no promise of any permanent, lasting roads. Everyone under stands the necessity for good roads, the benefits to be derived from them. There is no use ar guing that point. The only ques tion is how best to obtain them. We hope at Tuesday's meeting serious consideration will be giv en to the advisability of asking the present Legislature to allow Robeson to vote on bonds in the sum of, say, $500,000, for the permanent building and improve ment of roads. Twenty-eight cents of the present tax of 88 cents is for roads. As at present used little good is accomplished If we are not mistaken a little calculation will demonstrate that interest and sinking fund for bonds in the sum of $500,000 could be provided for less money than is being raised for road pur. poses now, and the question would be solved for all time to come.. The present patch-work system is little better than use less, while if sufficient bonds were issued to build permanent roads, the whole county would be knit together and Robeson would be a veritable garden spot mere :s no guess work or idle dream about the benefits to be derived from roads such as Robe son could have by these means and there is no other way to ac complish the desired result and the bad roads that are the curse of the county at present are too expensive at any cost. If this matter is not submitted to the Legislature during the vi eseni session u win ot course necessitate another wait of two years. If the matter is consider ed in the proper light we be lieve the meeting at Lumberton next Tuesday will result in a request to our Senator and Rep resentatives for an election to determine the question of an is sue of bonds in some such amount as suggested above. NO "LESSER" LUMBERTON. Under the caption, "No Great er Lumberton." The Charlotte Chronicle copies the following from The Robesonian: "It is proposed to amend the town charter, making Lumber river the limit on the west. A strong resolution wa3 passed against any change and urging upon the Senator and Represen tatives from Robeson the import ance of not making the change proposed. It is thought that if the proposed change were made the section just across the river would become a refuge for un desirable citizens and would be a constant menace to the town." The Chronicle shows by the caption under which it copies the above that it is laboring under a mistaken idea. We want no "lesser" Lumberton. The sec tion referred to is already in cluded in the town limits and the proposed change would contract the limits of the town. ,She is not blowing much about it, but Lumberton is becoming Greater Lumberton all the while. A matter which comes clearly within the power of the corpora tion commission to remedy, and which is a great nuisance, is the failure of Atlantic Coast Line and Seaboard trains to make any sort of proper connections at Pembroke. Morning and eve ning Seaboard trains to Pem broke miss connection with Coast Line trains to Rowland by only I a few minutes, so that it is im possible to get to Rowland by rail from Lumberton without spending a day or night in Pem broke. It is one of those pro voking narrow misses that makes people think the railroads are actuated by a spirit of pure cuss- edness. By changing the sched ules on either or both lines by less than ten minutes connec tions could be made both morn ing and evening, but the change will not be made unless the cor poration commission takes the matter in hand. The gentlemen compose body wil ila 1 ; 4.u: CaUSe tne people in tniS in this section to rise up and call them blessed if they will make the railroads come to taw in this matter. Robeson county has no notion of going back on her record for homicides. She continues to stand up to it mighty well. Wilming ton Star, 10th. What causes The Star to break out like that, we wonder? There have been no homicides in Robe son recently that we recall, and Solicitor Sinclair says that Robe son is one of the best counties in the State in that particular. A Croatan got in the way of a fast train at Rowland Saturday morn ing and was killed and the body of a negro who jumped into Lum ber river and was drowned was found Saturday, but these furn ish mighty poor excuse for re ferring to Robeson's homicide record as though its record in that particular were something to be wondered at. We wait to see if The Star will explain what occasion it has at this time to re fer to Robeson's suicide record. Mr. J. F. McKay's suggestion for an act to prohibit any divi- oiuii oi .rcoDeson county ior a period of two hundred and fifty years, published elsewhere in this paper providing heavy pun ishment for any person who shall dare to work for, discuss or think about division, is what Col. Al. i airbrother calls the ' 'stuph' ' or does he call it the "stuff?'1 Anyway, It's all right. Any thing for a quiet life. A large number of citizens of Robeson county, both those who oppose and those who favor di vision of the county, is in Raleigh today, and the matter will be threshed out to a finish before the committees on counties, cities and towns today and to morrow. Uetore the next issue of The Robesonian it win De known whether or not the blow has really "fell." It is impossible to forecast the re suit just now. Personals From M a x t o n Horse Fatally Injured.

The proposition for the crea tion of Nuseley county out of portions of Lenoir, Greene and Wayne, with La Grange as coun ty scat, met its death in the Sen ate committee on connties, cities and towns Tuesday after a lengthy hearing. The committee considered that no valid reason for creating a new county was shown. A call is issued at the request of Gen. Julian S. Carr and other prominent Confederate veterans for the commanders of all the lo cal camps in the State to meet in Raleigh Thursday, the 18th., to consider the situation as to the efforts to procure from this Leg islature an increase in pensions. After this conference of com manders it is expected that the veterans will have hearings prob ably before a joint session of committees on pensions and fi nance. The old soldiers want the present 400,000 in pensions to be at least doubled in order to put the State on an equally cred itable footing in this matter with other States.
