Major Guthrie states that tha sale of these properties will not affect tha relatione of himself and his Ann aa attorneys ftM tJT : future legal business. He says that ha has -abiding faith that under tb new management and ownership, the Durham A Charlotte Railroad will in the near future be completed lietween Durham and Charlotte and that both Durham and Charlotte will be rrtst ly benefitted by the change of owner ship. . - The Durham A Charlotte Railroad haa at present 44 miles in operation from Troy, Montgomery county, to Gulf, Chatham county, while the ex tension of this road to Charlotte and Durham would mean the construction of about 100 miles of railroad. Charlotte Chronicle. What seems to us to be the best railroad proposition of all is the Dur ham and Charlotte. This property has just been sold by the man who built and owned the road. He made this North Carolina investment 25 years ago, and he built the road like a bridge without approaches, a gap extending from Gulf to Durham on one 'end and from Mt. Gilead to Char- Intfo nn fk nho TV. in,..,:... Mr. Lcnnig aa to the completion of tne road could be never obtained, but H was always unaergiooa. mat be con sidered the bniuding of the Charlotte end too expensive and waa content to let matters rest. To get over from Montgomery into Stanly county, the Uwharrie mountains have to be cross ed and the bridging of the Yadkin rfver wouw be aomethine of the char- eter of brideins the Niaeara below the falls, but that work being accom plished the further construction to Charlotte would be comparatively in expensive, as there is a ridge grade nccriy all the. way. We have no doubt the Bale of the road means its completion between Charlotte and Dnrham. and when that is done, it will apring.into popularity and pros- penty. Sry-Olina Marriage. On rfniidav.

The Commerce court reached the conclusion that tha caea involved in the DBesent proceeding Mflbrd the best possible opportunity for a de- termination of the constitutionality of the lone and short haul provision of the act to regulate commerce. It was realized that ftat question event ually would have- Jo be (.fought out before the United1 States Supreme court, In tbe formal opinion, prepared by JndgA Maek the Commerce court not onl the intenUte com- mereo commission that the long and short haul provision the four sec tion of the law is constitutional, hnt that it would be unconstitutional, as an unlawful delegation of legis lative power," if no standard were given to "guide the exercise of the commission's discretion in granting authority to depart from the rule for bidding a lesser rate for the long than the short haul in the same direc tion and over the same line."

"A few years aso the department conducted an investigation to deter mine the condition of roads through out the country. The result showed 2,151,570 miles of public highways; of which 7.14 per cent, were improv ed, wnue tuere were In the sixteen States of the South 685,151 miles, of which only 27,185 or 3.87 per cent, w. re improved. Since 1904 the annual expendi ture of money for road improvements in the nation has doubled and in the South it has more than doubled. Tbe movement for good roads is going to benefit the farmer in getting his pro duets to market expeditiously in all kinds of weather at a reduced cost) is going to inereasj the Value of his lands; and will give his children bet ter school facilities. Good roads ' will particularly prove beneficial to the farmer, of the South, where, apart-from the staple! crops, tbe soils will produce almost every known crop and especially late winter and early spring vaneties when transportation from the farm to railroad is rendered difficult owing to the cut-up and rough condition of unimproved roads. "For demonstrating purposes the department recently laid over 1,000- UUU square yards of object-lesson roads of nearly every type and our road experts are constantly at their work in all parts of the country, while the laboratories are. testing all kinds of possible road materials in order to secure the best improved ma t-rials for road construction." -i Nitlonal Grange to Session.
