The Camden road from Harrison's Croes-iJeads to Winnsboro, through some of the finest country and fertile lands in Fairfield County, is only ten or twelve tuiies. By other routes it is twenty miles. That road is almost entirely neglected and the neighboring farms are consequently left uncultivated and barren to a great extent. It is hoped that the couBty commissioners will soon have that road worked by the chain gang and an effort ina'!* to restore a little of its former wealth to the line of that lamous old road.

Tbe following interesting articie relating to Mr. Wm. M. NeleoD, & former resident of Winnsboro, is taken from the State: A noteworthy coincidence is related of the service of Mr. Wm. M. Nelson, private in Company K, the Governor's Guards. When the First regiment left Chickamauga for Jacksonville and there appeared to be a certainty of their going to Cuba, Mr. Nelson volunteered as a private. He was assigned to clerical dnty and continued at this until tbe day of muster out. In 1861-5 Mr. Nelson served as a private in the fniifo/ioroffl ?rmv in P^mnanv ft. W(uwuv?M?V " - / Sixth South Carolina Infantry, John Bratton colonel. In this regiment also Mr. Kelson was assigned to clerical work, aiding Capt. H. A. Gaillard, of Wiansboro, who was adjntant of the regiment. In both of these wars Mr. Nelson was engaged in the preparation of the regular muster rolls. He says thai these monthly muster 1'" Af Vi<-? ap , V wfirfl 1ujjo vi v uv vvujvuv?m>v - J ?- . very complete, and if they could be obtained for compilation, much valuable history could be obtained. But all Confederate records on file in tke archives at Washington are merely lor reference and cannot be taken away. Mr Nelson is well known in Columbia, having at one time been proprietor of the Nelson hotel, burned in 1895. He is an expert accountant, was very useful in the clerical work of his company, writing a beautiful hand, and is a gentleman of the old school. Mr. Nelson said that when he volunteered, he found tbe regiment losing around daily on account of the relaxed discipline at Cuba Libre after the tendon of (Jbickamauea, out it was n.-s candid opinion that tbe First regiment would have had no equal in active service.

News and Courier. ] The Winnsboro Herald reprint? the ?' substance of the letter of Col. T. G. | White, recently published in Tbe j News and Courier, in which he de- i scribes what cotton mills have done \ ? r- ( tor tbe up-country, ana eepeciariy ior < Spartanburg county, and contributes J some interestiog testimony of its own j for the encouragement of towns and j counties which are as yet at the bot- j torn of tbe hill of industry and pros- j perity. It notes that the difference j between the two sections of the State < is traceable directly to t?>e cottnt; I mills," that "the line of prospe:i;y is ] marked by cotton milks," and ths' j most of tbe manufacturing industries j in the Piedmont j-eeioa "ha<! srn*!l j beginnings and were started by men j j and people id enterprising bi-chuiin j fcelpiDg themselves first by moderate 2 ootlays," and add*: * ] "We have called attention to this s because oar own people have jast j started on this line. W* cannot boast 1 of such figures as are presented as to ! Spartanburg, bat we should remember ] that Spartanburg's beginning was as | modest as ours. To-day Winnsboro | has a small mill, bat it wm compare j most favorably with any mill of its | size iD the State. The effect of the | Fairfieid Cotton Mills is already felt 1 apoo oar development. In the last g six months at least five handred peo- s pie have beeo added to our population, | and the thousands of dollars paid cot ? annually will have its effects. Whether i due to the factory or not, it is signifi- | cant that inore building is in progress x in Winnsboro to-day than in twenty I or twentyrfive years, and the building t has followed upon the completion of | the factory, In less than six months f about twelve store rooms have been | built, and other signs of improve- | ment are not wanting. It is true that | the low price of cott#n is not without | its depressing effects, but if the ont- ?. ward evidences of progress shall be as srreat in 1899 as they have baeu in ^ 1898 the ;people of Winnsboro onght ^ not to complain. Winnsboro] and Fairfield connty shoold be very much intereeted in the sncces of the begin- t< ning. We cannot hope to rival b Spartanburg, but if the present enter- y prise succeeds others like it will fol- j1 low, and with them other evidences of prosperity." c /iAmmAn/4 f/-v fVlQ ^ 'I C VUUilUCliU tui? W iuv WVUW.MV?? tion of our friends in other counties, ? who have been "playing on the one- s stringed indnstrial fiddle," or tryiDg to get on in the worid with the one j, industry of raising unprofitable cotton, a and suggest to them that they cannot _ do better than follow Fairfield's be- _ lated example of following the example of the Piedmont counties. The one mill in Winnsboro has added 500 j to the copulation of the town, and < twelve new stores, in fiix months, and has caused more building than in twenty or twenty-five years before. / It is the same story everywhere. A cotton mill brings business and pros- c perity to any town in the South, and ^ sometimes makes towns where (here 1 were none b fore. A notable instance v is reported from North Carolina. The ? Littleton Reporter says^of one of the h new nowns in that State: ; "Where Roanoke Kapids, a town of * 1 ctrw\ " ? nJfnnlnrl maa n i)ZW lUU&UiltlLllB, la uun niuaibu) nuo less than ten years ago cultivated and barren lands." The opening up of cottoa mills ia that time has made a bean- g tiful and thrifty town. Demand for the goods of the two mills now in operation is increasing, and tbe capacity of the mills wili be doubled in two years; this increase of mill machinery will, of course, double ?he population of the now already ci owde i town. We say 'crowded town' because there is not a vacant cottage in tb? phce. It is said the cottages are the best of any in the South for operatives. ;Vhai h*8 j been done at Roanoke Rapid^ is being j done in manv places in this State, aad , -? j?- i?? ^;.u couia nave oeeu uuuv ucic nnu ^ to investors and the town." McCell, in South Carolina, was founded and bailt ap in the same way, and is now larger than its old neighbor, Bennettsville. Bennettsviile has learned its lesson, however, and will soon have a mill of its own. Walterboro has learned it also. The Colleton Mills Company, at that place, it is an- * nounced, "is now equipping its plant." t The buildings are completed and the ? complement of machinery is being placed in position, to include 5,000 ? nriiAfi anil 100 looms for the nroduc tion ef yarns, threads and white goods. The capital stock is $100,000. The stockholders of the famous little mill at Clover, S. C., which pays its cost every few years, held a meeting last ? week and decided to bnild another mill, and work will be commenced in a few weeks. They know a good thing when they have found one, and tbey hare found one in cotton manufacturing. Many communities and counties ] in the State share their comfortable < experience. The wonder is that tbe ' people of any county, and especially 1 of such a county as Barnwell, should i need urging 01 argument to induce < them to "venture" into the industry at this late day.
