NORTH CAROLINA GOOD ROADS
Improved Thoroughfares Tend to
Prosperity of Farmers and Saving
of Time Is Considerable.
(By N. BUCKNER.)''
Throughout the mountain region of
is western North Carolina the good
roads sentiment has attained propor
tions and gathered such Impetus as to
sweep aside objections to expendi
tures for good roads, which is usually
'the case in all progressive movements
nf great moment. The movement had
its inception in Asheville, North Caro
lina, when the Asheville and Bun
combe County Good Roads association
was organized by a few public spir
it fted men who realized the loss to
this beautiful mountain country by
reason of lack of good roads which
made it impossible for not only the
people of this section, but the tourists
and visitors from going from one
point to another.
Immediately after the organization
of this association, it raised $5,000
by subscription and regraded and
macadamized the road from Asheville
to Biltmore, a distance of a little
more than two miles. This one. piece
of work in itself demonstrated to the
Bad Road in North Carolina.
citizens that good roads fotild be
built in the mountains and it stimu
lated all thinking citizens to further
effort.-
At the present time, macadam and
s»and clay roads have been and are be
ing actively constructed throughout
(lie entire, Land of the Sky" region
In western North Carolina, there al
ready being hundreds of miles of
splendid hard surfaced roads winding
about the mountains, across bills and
valleys from one section to another.
The immediate territory surrounding
Asheville is covered with a veritable
network of good roads which are of
the greatest, benefit to the farmers of
(he country and to the business peo
ple of the city, and of especial delight
(o the throngs of visitors both winter
and summer to this most delightful
all the year around resort.
Adjoining counties have caught the
spirit and forces may be. found build
ing macadam and sand clay roads
in all sections. To the south Bun
combe county has just completed ma
cadamizing the highway to the Hen
derson county line, connecting at
that point with a most splendidly
graded road to Hendersonville, a
ll
charming and delightful summer re
sort, and from that point, south to
the Polk county tine across Salirla
mountain to Spartanburg, South Caro
lina. connecting with the national
highway to Atlanta. This road is the
inlet and outlet for automobiles vis
iting in the "Land of the Sky," many
hundreds of which are hero during
the year. The enterprising citizens of
PolV Henderson counties are re
grading and rebuilding the road up
Saluda mountain, giving a much eas
ier grade than the present road,
which, however, ie easily negotiable.
Incomplete returns as wc go to
press indicate the election of
Gov. Byrne and Chas. II. Burke
by safe majorities, with Ewert of
Pierre for state treasurer.

on the democratic county ticket,
