Judge Webb in his cnarge to the grand jury spoke
plainly; on this subject. He said that if any person pays
the poll tax of another with jhe understanding that the vote
of the second person will bet influenced thereby, both parties
are guilty. V The offense is a'grave one, and the penalty pre
scribed by law is severe. The law is a dangerous thing to

We again call attention to the
good-roads meeting to be held here
Wednesday, March 30. The matter
is of very great importance to this
county and deserves thoughtful con
sideration on the part of all our
people. ; Below will be found a
letter from ;G, H. Holmes referring
especially to the proposed road to
Spartanburg. Byvay of explana
tion we mention the following
facts: :
The three main thoroughfares
proposed are, roughly speaking; an
the form of a triangle. One side
runs from Charlotte to Knoxville by
way of ? Asheville whic.js almost
exactly half way beiween iSe two
ends. . . Another , side , runs from
Knoxville to Atlanta, and the third
side from Atlanta to Charlotte -by
way of Greenville and Spartanburg.
Hendersonville Jsl , situated not
very far from the middle of this
triangle. Branches are to come
in : this direction from Asne
yille, - Spartanburg and Greenyuie
but if these branches are to reach
us we must take care of the part
within this county. That , means
that we must construct the .road
from Calvary church, Fletcher, to
the South Carolina line and from a
point near Zirconia to the. Polk line.
The cost will vary from $50Q, a mile
(where there is an existing road of
(air grade)'ito $1000 a mile In
other words, with an 'expenditure of
$20,000 or $25,000, we can connect
at three points with the main -sys-tem.
i , '
benefits which will accrue to the
country from such a road, are sub
scribing sufficient money to build
the road through their property.
Polk county has already several
miles of improved roads which will
will form a part of this highway, so
that as matters now stand, a high
way to a point four miles this . side
of Tryon is assured. This will leave
about six 'miles in Polk county, and
about seven in Henderson county
to complete the road to Flat Rock.
Part of this distance in Henderson
county will be over the already ex
isting road from Flat Rock to Green
ville.
It is now up to Henderson county
to say what.sheia. going to do about
it . Will she cooperate with Polk
county to buid this - thirteen- miles'
of road and enjoy. t&? advantages ftf
mgnway communicauon witn oouui
Carolina, or will she be content with
railway communication only, as it
has been in the past?
1 think it-will be only necessary
for Henderson, county people to
understand the proposition to get
their cooperation.
, Yours very truly

Some time ago we published a
statement showing the need of in
creased and improved accommoda
tions at the graded school. The
building in its present condition is
inadequate. Something must be
done.
The suggestion is made that, the
old academy building be renovated
and used for lome of the grades,
thus relieving the pressure at the
other building. The town owns the
academy property with the proviso i ty
that ft be used for educational pur-J
poses. At present it is not being
used at all.
