NEWS AND HERALDi WINNSBORO), S. C. J. FRANK FOOSE Editor and Pr~prietor. PUBLISHED WEEKLY TERMS. IN ADVANCR. One Year,.............................51.50 Six Months..................... . 5 Wednesday, March 28. 1906. The death of Attorney General Gunter which occurred at his home at Batesburg Sunday after a long illness removes from pub lic life a young man who had a remarkably successful career for one of his years and one who had won the confidence of his fellow citizens in a very large measure. The pistol-toing habit is still in vogue and tuere are still daily chroniclings of murders and at tempts to murder. TLere is not likely to be any decrease in the number of these crimes till there is less toting of pistols. Let there 'be less carrying of this ever ready hip pocket weapon and there will be fewer killings and murders to record. The town council will be deserving of great praise, if they will take the necessary steps for insuring better sanitation for the town in keeping with the suggestion made in these columns last week. In order that this reform may result in greater healthiness to the town this summer, this reform should be instituted at once. The many friends of Mr. Jen nings throughout the county will read with much pleasure his letter published in the News and Herald to- day. The indications now are that Mr. Jennings is going to be allowed to have his office again without opposition. If he is, it will be a high honor to a devoted son of Fairfield who has filled every public trust in the most satisfactory manner. He is wholly worthy of this high distinction. Champ Clark, nor the editor of the State, nor any one else would ever be able to pan off the word "jowering" as something new in this state, where it is as old almost as the hills, at least there is no one old enough to remem ber when it was not used. If it is now to be used as a good English word, it will only be another~ illustration of what so oftenthappens: that a word serves a good place colloquially long before being used by the littera teurs. The "Suggestion to the Daugh ters" that they provide hearth stone entertainment f:>r the veterans, when they come here1 in M av, is a very happy one and1 one that we feel sure that they will be glad to comply with. They will esteen it a privilege to accord these "heroes in the hearts of thieir children and children's chiiliren" this ware welcome and assure thie- in this way that their bes'-Le desde are not merely a thibg of the past, but stilla livin' As previously suggested the Daughters of the Confederacy are very anxious to award a cross of honor to every old veteran in Fairfield . county on Memorial Day. But this they can not do till the veterans themselves do their part by filling out the neces sary blanks that have been sent to them. About 200 of these blanks have been sent out and so far only 110 have been returned. All veterans, who have received these blanks, are urged to send( them, properly filled out, back to the committee at once. If auv veteran has not been supplied with the necessary blank, the committee will be pleased to supply the same at once. Let it be that every veteran is here and leave with his well won cross of honor; and it will be thus,' if the veterans will give the Daugh ters their assistance in getting all the records straight. Real Estate Deals. Some days ago our attention was called to the fact that there had been no mention in these columns of the real estate dea 's that had been made in the couu ty within the past six months. A list of these deals is published in another column and it is very clear that there has been consid erable trading in real estate. The total sales, exclusie of town lots and buildings, aggregates 25,957 acres, the amont paid for the same was '147,395.00 or *5.88 per acre. It is noticeable tha~t while there have~ been sev-rai Iarg deals there have been more small ones. In the majority of in stances these smaller deals reore sent the puchs of hads for homes. It is also very noticeabh that in these purchases of real mportant part.
