* tHE " NSWS AND HERALD. FUBMSESS EVERY WEDNESDAY ?by? T* News and Herald Co. TEBVS, IN ADTJLVa0ae Tsar, ... 81.50 Six Moitka, . - .75 WINNSBORC, F. C. Wednesday, November 21 1900 J. D. H.'S SUGGESTION'S. Oar correspondent J. D. H. makes some good suggestions, and while we do not intend to ehborate them we desire to add oar * endorsement to them <?8 being on the rigbt lioe. As to the pistol habit, what be says as to the evil is all true; and the newspapers have straggled bard to create a sentiment against the evil practice of carrying concealed deadly weapons. We do not altogether take to the idea of a detective. We never like a regularly employed spy. Soon officer might, of coarse, do his duty conscientiously without malice or ill wil! towards any, but the principle of the plan has in itself an evil tendency. It furnishes too tempting>n opportunity for revenge or persecution. The best way and .the only way to stop the carrying of concealed weapons is for *11 good citizens to put their foot down on it, and let it be known that they, not as employee ueiectives, uui iawabiding citizens* intend to see the law enforced. If those who condemn the practice will support the law, the evil can belstopped. They can create a sentiment in favor of law and order. As to the suggestion that the public roads should be in charge of an experienced Jcivil engineer we endorse that without reservation, but the people will have to be educated up to it. In the first place, (be people of I Fairfield County have never appre dated how badly tbey need good roads. The very first objection that will be made to J. D. H.'s plan is that the people are too poor to pay a icientific engineer one -thousand dollars per annum. Jast watch! An experienced engineer wonld be cheap at that, and we doubt whether the services of a competent man could be had for it, but possibly so. The point Wq wish to make, though, is that the people must first find out that the county really mnst have good wads, and then J. D. H. and all others who now appreciate the value of good roads must convince the people that tbey can not get a good thing for nothing. They must pay for it. We haTe no doubt that ,J. D. H.'s suggestion has been inspired by whatT he saw in Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, and other States, tbongb he doesn't say so. He doobtles* noticed the splendid turnpike roads, and be found that Jan.is naturally do Detter loan me beautiful lands along the Wateree were selling for ten or perhaps twenty times a* mucb, and be fonnd (bat these same good ;roads had a great deal to do with it. We need not go 60 far from home to ascertain the same tbiog. Mecklenburg county jast across the State line in North Carolina furnishes a strifcing example of what goosi roads will do for agricultural ommnnitJe?. Returning to the suggestion, we need refer only briefly to the value of an engineer. Oar roads are miserably located. Tbey ought to be resurveyed, and run with some regard to the topography of the country. The value of a good isngineer is obvious in road construction. We are gJaa J. D. H. has opened the discussion and hope that others will follow. A combiDe has been (formed by the lumber companies, which control practically all the pine timber in North and South Carolina and Yirgini?. Trusts :folIow close npon the election of McKinley. When you want lumber you will probably have to pay this trust a good price for it. The great fight in the future will be against these trusts. They won in the last election, and every victory makes them stronger. The great daoger is that the reaction 3gainst trusts, which Zf% r? n'onfl mill 1qq/1 fri UV4UU iv iaac niii ?V socialism. The excuse generally given for the formation is that it minimize the cost of production. This argument may be taken hold of by the people and carried further. They may argae that if private monopoly is a good thing, public monopoly is better, and that is the sum and substancc of socialism. The logical" evolution of trusts leads to socialism. It is strange that trusts which are constantly labelling policies as socialistic should them selves be laying the foundation lor socialism. Aftek a few more Iyuchings of negroes in Northern State?, we hop e that Northern newspapers willkcease to lectnre the South. No one wili object to tbeir condemning lynching in general, but the South is tired of attacks directed especially at this section. Since the war between the States the negores have gone to the North to live, and recent events have shown that they fare no better there than here. Lynchings are deplored in tbe South as much as in tbe North, and it is time for the outrageous attacks on this part of the country to cease. One feature of the Colorado lynching shows the difference between the civilization of the two sections. It is said in the reports that while women were not actually present at the burning, they were not far off. Southern women would have been far off. a rise in Standard Oil stock, 10 per cent rise 02 beef, mntton and pork, common table salt advat.cli.'g from $1.20 to $1.50?all the acc mpli b ment of the trusts in rrer to reimburse themselves for campaTw- contri- 1 bations?are evidences of ibe kind of prosperity under McKinley. How do consumers like it? OASTORIA. Kiwi Yiu Kara Aiways Boaght ^ 1 "/ "*-? \ We can understand how some peo-j pie may b&ve opposed Mr. Br* an on ! account of his free silver viev?s in 1896 and how some people hare a ague kind of idea that the so-called exoansion Dolicr of the administra tion means greatness to this country and will give it great commercial importance aDd wealth, but we can not understand how theae people see any benefit to the great masses in a Government which permits the organization of gigantic concerns which can send up the prices of such necessaries of life, as salt, mutton, beef and pork. It is very easy to say that Mr. Bryan appealed lo the passions of men, bat if this artificial advance in prices of things consumed by the masses <-ha'.l continue to be possible at the mere will of the trusts a far less conservative leader will be fonnd Oxe little incident 'of the election, wbich the newspapers seem to hsve overlooked, onght to be kepi before those Republicans who had so much to say abont the negro in tbe politics of North Carolina aud other Southern State?. It happened in Philadelpqia, we believe; not in a Southern Stale, remember. It appears that the negroes thought that there was too much delay in opening the polling booth, and when they saw some wbite men allowed to vote before themselves the negroes made a rush for the poil*, and quite a number of^hites and blacks were wounded In tbe encounter. This is all we care to say about it. " y MATTEKS OF JNTEKEST. Xo Place Like Fairfield?Some Good Suggestions to our Representatives.. Mr. Editor: After my return from the Louisville reunion and an exten-1 sire trip through Indiana, Arkansas, Illinois, Missoari and the Lone Star State, procrastination itole from me some very fine resolutions of substituting myself for my old and esteemed friend Jennings, who was conspicious for his absence, and thus your readers were deprived of the annual letter that he always wrote in re gard to these trips, and I, as his sel fappointed subutitute, will only say that after my various trips over different parts of the uoion and seeing the many fine cities, rich lands, and fine r.rnns thaf. f&binc evrvthin?r into con r ? o "-rf o sideration, there is no piace like old South Carolina, and there are no finer avenoes open for the various vocatioa6 of life than the old red bills of Fairfield afford. Bat, Mr. Editor, I am digressing from my first intention and I will proceed to.mention ihe ideastbatl hsve in view and will net go into details of either but casually mention them with the hope that you may bring out some discussion in yonr paper, and tbat cur representatives will give both matters their consideration and use their very best efforts to remedy them through legislation. The first matter is one that has been discussed for >ears, and still there is room for improvement?the road law. Why not have the road law so amended that it will read tbat all persons liable for road duty shall perform so many days work on the public highway during the year instead of may perform so many cUys work, aad either dispense with the office of supervisor or relieve him of lookiog after the roads and ekct or appoint ooe roadv commissioner, pa? him a good salary?a thousand dollars if necessary?and he most be a man of experience with a g-><>d knowledge of civil engineering (and ;1ih nquisits for qualification ba ?o 6tipulared that no one except' he possess the required scientific knowledge need apply) and give him not only supervision of the chningang bat of all sections of lands in ihe county and I am tatitfied she results will be sood roads, and not the apology for thtm that we now have. Now tde next matter is in regard to a law that is already on the statute book but like a good many other laws that public sentiment has never interested itself in enoogb to -c?p that it is executed, and it is one tu ihit h-.* been widely discussed but ?? *i.scb nr\ oilonnafo romor?v ihfln hp?"i hrmiohf forward?that is the carrying of concealed weapons?the ready pistol, bowie-knife or razor that have caused so mach bloodshed and misery and furnish our courts with so much work annually. Why not appoint two detectives in each county, one white and one colored, pay Ibem a nominal salarv, sav $150 per annum, ^bicb would be more than paid by fines, &c.; and by the way, Mr. Editor, did it ever occur to you that this habit is confined mostly to young whites and the young negroes; very few of the older whites and ante-bellum darkies carry them except for self-defence. In conclusion, Mr. Editor, I think an editorial from you on the subject might bring out discussion and crystalize some' idea that our representatives might take some action upon. I lonsr to see the McC and George McM thort oat from Longtown to Winnsboro completed, and to hear the Elliott and McDonald whistle of the engine on the Camden-Winnsboro Railroad. That will develop the finest part of Fairfield County on the Wste* fee River and vicinity. Longtown, Nor. 13, 1900. J. D. L'.

Farmers have abeut finished harvesting their crops; some scattered j cotton jet remains to be picked; this, | however, will not amount to much, as I the recent freeze destroyed the much anticipated top crop. Crops, generally speaking, were very poor in this section; especially was this the case where the hail storm prevailed daring the summer; below the hail-stricken belt, ia Lower LoD^town, the crops are better.

My lungs became hardened. I was so weak I couldn't even ?it np in bed. Nothing helped me. I expected to soon die of Consumption, when I heard of Dr. King's New Discovery. One bottle gave great relief. 1 continued to use it; and now am well and strong, I can't say too much in its praise."

Persons who wish t<> take early trains ont of town leave fider* with the manager, and there is no danger of musing their trains. It has aito frequently happened that a subscriber haa left word to be called at one-hour or two-hour intervals during the night where he has had to take medicine, and much inconvenience and worry has been saved thereby."?Literary Digest.
