March flrat, *to August 111, \9-2; and that -at tJhp tame time 58 automobile •"ptmiienfers werie killed by South ' Tarn trains at crossings he n*- , marks that automobile drivers *-do not appear to lie as careful train drivers, and yet, he .says, ‘That it cannot Ik* doubt - "-ad that the social duty of pre-, Caution rests as mui h upon one aas upon the othef.” And in putting it that way ; we say that Mr. Harrison shows himself to be overly mtxlvat. rHe might: havg printed out that -while the tram drivers were none of their .own pas sengers and the automobile tdrivers were ktting fifty-eight -of their pasHengers get killed, .that the accidents all took place when the automohilea got on the railroads, and none of them place when the train rrot -on the highway, except, indeed 'wow and then when the high -way has to cross the railway. He ‘Wight have pointed mit with profit tbs, fact that an auto jipobile ma to go on a railroad for only a fe% feet ift soiitii +ot miles, while a train has to go hmi It all the time. IjL f , COMPROMISE ON * 9. ▼. crumnm Whan they celebrated the treninf of the Roanoke River Bridge At WllliMmston thq oth erdlagr there was a good deal of 'oMtlng. The State’s oratorii d Knighthood was there and ii ml) flow#: The only burning l Sash orator whose name yvj* MjWkd to note among those pro lint was the Honorable Turn O' Shanter Bbwle of Ashe. No that tlfta is due to tin jfeHmaity which Tam lalxira and* l, haring to atav dose to home to keep hia hand firmly rth« state's lost pro\ nice* to waat. He ia holding those provinces now with great dif ficulty, waiting for the state to WO its railroad property and iavest the money in a rail line trough the lost provinces. And K until the State dots this there Ip dot another soul left to hold the pfprinces If Tam wpre* to I hold for one moment e grave fears that the s would walk right TVnnesae line and he ?ver without hope of . So Tam may »*• ex r hot having put In Ids Appearance and a few high gear fftinariui on the occasion when the lost provinces of the east were brought back by the open lug of the bridge. If anything . tn the world would have tempt ed him to relax his tail hold m the lost provinces of the west tor a moment it wonki kave been the delight to he Srived from beholding the sal* elation of the lost provinces of fte east. The principal concern at the celebration of the opening of the bridge. we gather from the Subsequent literature on the •übjeot. wa« to give praise snd * ftßaditio some one for the build ing of the bridge, and even for tha road building in the State. All the speakers be jtowed great ppiise upon some ■gdy also for the Hccomfdiah- J—t, .leaving it perfectly ap ■nnt that the upeakcr him \Jpf aSaerved the praise and asuld therefore well afford to jmss a little blarney aro.wwl t the other* Everybody was gen erous eftcept Judge Frank w ms ban, who, like Oliver Twist, took tha opportunity of notifying th» world that he wanted a “leeth?"

It wa«t a pan of tlv fortunate and happy eirvum panmi of Abe day that nobody . pud fur a hard prin fbMp'' wf •* - I who was entitled fto the credit, | for in that event the harmony of the occasion might have been marred bv every one’s voting for himself. Yf>u see it is ail right to throw a Ifttle credit around jn words, but if o a uaved city rftifot. Between these two extreme* old man K. V. OXulion sat steady in the Isiat and said: "Steady bovs, take it along easy. Build us cun and a* 'the needs require. You (Han't have hard road* till the time for them conies and then they will come along gradually, her.? a Httle ami then* a little, and In dub course, the full fledged high way under state construction and upkeep will come.” Nolnxly knew how this "state system" was to come, but after a while i everybody got to talking about it. Wlien Mr. Craig was gov ernor some enthusiastic fellow named him the good roads gov ernor and eftfcmled to see Won ders. But no wonders happi-ned. The**»ld man kept jogging Akmg at about the usual gait advanc ing here and there as he could. Then Governor Ilickett camd In and Col. Kirkpatrick organ | ized an air campaign and turned | loose many salvos in Wlialf of a large bond issue for state 1 ifiad*. Like Col. Kirkpatrick.

They wrangled and twisted and noliody knew wiiat cdukl be done or what any one wanted done. There W’efe some half a dozen bills each drawn with an eye single to the county or the local prejudices of the representative, who presented it Hut they dually got the begin ning of a slate system, as fur as the state wished or jeould sec at that time. The Most notable thing about it w#s ahat they fedutwH the number of commissioners fr».m thd large and flouHshihg honorary list beaded by f'ol.

O’Lutiod kept on th< Job. By the time* the next legis lature met public sentiment hue taken some shape. Republicai members iiad become so pro nmiriced for road ironds that the Dein(|erats failed t(» faint at the Mention of them. Governor Morrison came in and Col. Kirk patrick let over some more* air artillery. Old Uncle Rufe Houghton suw that the time had come and the people* were ready to provide some money, and so hb let the legislature order tht issuance of nltv millions, and otherwise provide funds, and also perfect the state gjrstcm so that Mr. Page could go t( work. So, step by step, the thing ha* come ulong till the William sion bridge hss been completed Who deserves the credit ? .Then is no credit aismt it.
