COUNTY PATRIOTISM
During tl.e VVorM War mocb was
paid and written nlwiut patriotism nml
love of country The world war was
won by Just tins same patriotism.
Many wli were patriotic in that
KTat rrluls an. I nre still patriotic
Fertn t forg.-r tdat they owe the mate
nil' gmni-e nti'l patriotic- ceal to their
State nd the- bounty in which they re-
ude Thi Is evident in-t titrlltlngly when
i 'tnes to the G?tutlLhtnent of 'public

tntl:liiiietit of a public road across
their Intid tlum tliey lnwt upon for
the eMiibli'hmetit of a railroad acros
the Mimr lan.l .V railroad Is benefi-
cial nnd nei.wnry for the jmbllc use
but there Is no deputing that n nubile
road Is of f.ir greater valne to the
common iopi. and the land owner
than a railroad
The land nwnrr will use the public
road a tlioui.iml times where he uses
the niilroi-I une- IVrhajw n thou
nnd people lll travel the public road
to one trMVitiug bj rail

consider tit mit'.r ten minutes; if he
will count tl .Iflilv uc he has made
of the railroad and public roads for
the last nix n..ntb In earrylng on his
business nnd compatire them ho will
see clearly that the imix'rtance of pub-
lic roads cannot be denied. t
Did you ever figure this out on pa
per Mr Landowner?- Try St onco and
then remember that you do not expect
railroads to follow section Hues. Why
not? It Is Lest to shorten the line for
the public welfare. It Is best to put
It on the host grade and ground. It
is to be ustd e hundred years or more
nnd much Li saved In the end.
Do not our own county public roads
merit far greater consideration-
Are wc not often unpatriotic wRn It
comes to the lovo wo have for our ovfn
Cou-ity and the consideration we give
those things which are most beneficial
t our citizens nnd property-1
Itt there bo more founty patriots.
A dlstlnciuUhr.l resident of an adja-

county free use f his lands. t
And still somt residents of Stephens

ing to exact unrn-onabli- demands
from the county offu-ials who are exe-
