* (
Monday, June 22nd is the reg- :
ular time for criminal court for i
Chesterfield county, but there ;
will not be any court this time, i
There is only one man in jail, i
and Solicitor Spears has written s
the clerk of court that unless i
there are jail cases to be tried <
no court is to be called.
This is probablj' better than <
convening court for two or i
three hours, as has been the cus- j
torn at the June term of court in I
this county. <
Mr. R. H. Garland, who has !
been suggested for the legislature,
informs us that it will be
impossible for him to enter the ]
rn/>n UA or* ?-- ? ? - A?'
avb. iic oaja tie appretnues j
very much the solicitations of ,
his friends, but he is firm in his :
refusal. He is not situated so he :
can get away from home and (
his work, he says, and while he
appreciates what has been done i
for him he can't see his way \
clear to make the race.
+ .
The automobile in which the .
county supervisor rides has ,
caused quite a little talk, and we ,
are glad to be able to give the j
facts in the case as told bv the ]
clerk of the county board. The i
commissioners proposed to pre- ;
sent the car to him, but as this j
i is not provided for in the law, ,
1 Mr. King declined to accept it. j
^ He therefore paid for it with his j
A own money, and is, of course, ,
free to use it as he may see fit. .<
BBl_ii fujm thv
issue of the Marshville Home: 1
**The Pageland Journal says
a dynamo will be installed in ?
connection with the oil mill t
. plant at Marshville to furnish
lights for the town. We are not J
enlightened as to where Tucker '
got his information, but it strikes }
us that it is a little "previous." p
We expect to have an electric j
line before many years?perhaps
before twelve months. We may il
fail to get it, and if so, then t
other steps will perhaps be taken v
to secure lights. If arrangements
have been made for the
connection of a dynamo to the
oil mill plant, the commissioners
of Marshville and the citizens at t(
large know nothing of it." q
Sorry. We hoped it was so. ^
One of the leading citizens of
Marshville, one who has a record ^
as a truth teller, informed us and j
we did not hesitate to report it
according to his statement. But *
it seems there must havp hwr> o
. mistake.
The Waxhaw Enterprise had r
the following to say last week: f
The Pageland Journal and (
the Lancaster News are engaged
in a controversy as to who
should be sent to the Legislature. s
The Journal thinks that the law- 1
makers, to make suitable laws, t
should be selected from a cer- c
tain class or profession, while y
the News believes that the pro (
fession should have nothing to ^
to do with it but that men should L
be selected wh^a t? ?i- 41
?..v U.v 1 lllbU IVJI 111*-1 ""
work and stand for the princi- 11
pies advocated by the people. ^
We think the Journal is a little J
off its base unless it wants to run J
for the Legislature itself." '
Wrong there, brother. We ^
did not say lawmakers should be a
selected from "a certain class or a
profession." But on the contrary, t
we have tried to make clear our c
belief that the lawmakers should "
never be selected from a certain
class or profession, but from all
the people. We have tried to (
show that the old practice of ?
selecting nearly all the law- \
makers from a "certain class or
profession" is all wrong, said
"certain class" meaning, of
couise, the lawyers.
The Enterprise man would
hardly leave to us the work of
trying for the national highway
by his town, even if he had confidence
in our abilitv to properly
represent the town's interests.
(Waxhaw is trying to get on the
proposed national highway
through North Carolina by
Charlotte and Gastonia, you
know.) He would be unwilling
because he knows we are not
interested, save in the general
sense in which we wish all towns
well. In other words, we do not
care enough about it to work
for it. Just so, we are unwilling
to send a full delegation of lawyers
up to make the laws. They
are interested in the affairs of
iU.. 1-1 :L_ -1 1
me: luuuiiu^ classes uDoui as we
are interested in Waxhaw's
roads?-interested, but not
enough to work.
No, McNeely, we are not off
aur base because we want to
run for the legislature but we
fear you are a little off yours
from a very natural leaning toward
the legal profession.
Sunday School Conference To
Meet in Florence
One of the most important
religious gatherings to be held
in Eastern Carolina during this
year will be held at Florence,
June 29, 30 and July 1, when the

elatives in South Carolina.
Richard Harding Davis, writng
from Vera Cruz, said of him
ecently: "He has a very young
ace, tanned to the color of a Meridian
army saddle, his hair is
'ellow, eyes blue and always
miling. He is the picture of
lealth. Clean living, clean
hinking and the daily exercise
>f taking a chance with death
lave given him the look of a
}reek god or one of Leyendecksr's
captains. He is much too
[ood to lose. Were he mv son,
ind he is voung enough, I would
[ivehima good talk for taking
uch risks, and in order to keep
lim out of danger would make
tim a paymaster or an admiral."
Lieut. Bellinger was born

ippointed to the Naval academy

' As a good many of the clubs
[ have not organized this year,
the Executive Committee would
1 like very much for such clubs to
! meet real soon and properly organize.'
It is very important that each
, club have a Secretary and a
member of the County Executive
Committee.
Let the word go out to all the
Voters to enroll for there is absolutely
no reason for any white
democrat in Chesterfield county
being deprived of the right to
vote, provided he is 21 years of
age, or shall become so before
the general election, and a citizen
of the State for two vpnrs
u
and has resided in the county
six months and the voting precinct
60 days prior to the prmary.
"We shall be glad to give any
, information we can.

Chairman Ex. Committee,

Secretary.
