Car lisle was asked t consult with his gold bug belters in Ken tucky and persuade them to stand by the Democracy which they h.d bolte. But Carlisle refused, thus allying himself with and becoming the head of the first bolters of 1896, and he gives as his reason that those bolte rs are representatives from the people and responsi ble to the people alone not to partjr. He adds however in so many vords that he would be i willing to assist in any "1 timate r way in putting in some one who TFashi bgton stands on the sound monny ? platform. In connection with this a prominent Republican of the Kentucky Legialature has given duI that the long strug gle there will end in the elec tion oj' a "sound money Demo crat." And the Charlotte Ob server politely tells Blackburn, the lemocratic nominee for Senator, to stand aside, thus advising the bolters to hol oat, defeat the Democratic nominee, and elect their own man or none. And the Repub licans seem to agree thereto. fur w' bug" j at differs it to the 'gold it be interests, whether .'.'gold bug" Dtmocrat or bug': Republican?

Editor: Please allow me room in your paper for a lew remarks. , I am truly ;i Wilkes boy but by chance have wand ;red far away into the (now) .State of Utah and the land of Mormanism, but not a Morman and be it far from me. But as I see in our little paper (I call it ours because I am interested in its milter) so much said against the Popu ist party and ranking it with the Republican party, I wish to say that you are mistaken. They do not stand with either of 'the two old parties; nei ther lo they endorse what either of them does outside of what is right and for tie benefit of the masses of the peo ple. Now in this country the Republh cans have the Btory turned and say we are lopulist-Democrats. But the whole thini about it is simply this: The two old parties are scared of us and are do ing what they can to keep us down but we are going to ! surprise you with a powerful vote if not a President elected this fall. We Populists want free silver and we are going to get it. , Now let you people of, the South get youi eyes open and help us in the West and let us have good times 7 by ' helping the poor people (of which I am one) get moijey to pay their taxes without r hav ing to sell their land and everything elseTthey have to raise tax money.

Editos: The people of the two ilkesboros as well as the people of the county, have certainly had an ob ject lesson this winter wkich fully il lustrates the necessity of better roads in Wilkes county, than those we are at present blessed(?) with. And they should now, if they ever intend having, better roads, be getting together and de ciding, on some line of action to secure this much desired consummation, be fore the rain3 and snows of another winter again finds us with roads which are veritable sloughs of despondency, and quagmires of despair, when under the mud and slush we can faintly hear the wailings of the lost souls of those who are compelled by dire necessity to attempt to travel therein, and who if so fortunate. as to get through them to town and back to their homes, generally get back, with only themselves, minus self-respect, patience and almost reli gion. This is . serious subject and one that should receive rerious thought, and then energetic, well directed action. Our road system as at present con ducted is a farce and a disgrace to even a half civilized community, let alone one that boasts as much civilization as ours. Let us be up and doing. Now is the time to work our road3 so we can get them in good order and condition before another winter comes upon us. , Our Superior Court will of course have a number of persons to deal with for oSences against our laws as a all our courts. A great many will he convict ed and sentenced to jail to pay the pen alty of their crimes and the costs of prosecution. Why shuld not our County Commis sioners make t,he necessary arrange ments to work these persons on our public roads? They have the power and the authority to do it, under two statutes passed by the last Legislature, and. why not do it, and thus put this class of our population to some useful work, instead of having them lying an jil at a dead expense to the county?. Bv'ery mile of road they build rightly will be of lasting good to the count . Under the provisions of chapter 283 laws of 1S95 the county commissission ers.hkve.the power to work our crimi nals, and also to work those from Alle ghany, Ashe and Watauga if they, so desire and will make the necessary ar rangements. And any one familiar with the amount of travel from these three counties to the depot here will readily see that by working their crimi nals on our roads these counties will reap as much of the benefit as we will ourselves. 1 And I am not sure from the verbiage of this chapter that we cannot make Rutherford, Mitchell and Sampson counties bear a prorata share of the ex pense of working our roads. In this respect it reads very much like the cel ebrated act for the Improvement of Stock in fhe county of Chatham, but it may be that our members from this county thus mixednhe verbiage of this act for the pur pose hf getting help in this matter from these counties. But anything to get better roads, ei ther thisact, or the general law as giv en us in chapter 19-1 of the lawsof 1895 whereby we can levy a road tax by vote of the county commissioners if they see proper and also obtain twenty-five State convicts, in addition to those' we may furnish from our own county And a the present Board of Commissioners are to go out of office this fall, I trust they will pardon?an humble citizen for suggesting that they could leave no greater monument to their wisdom, and their care for the good of Wilkes coun ty, than to put in operation a system of working and improving and improving our roads under the previsions of these acts, and I can assure them that if they will so do even the present, as well as the future generations will rise up and call them blessed ' Knorf Nibbod.
