The r>ew town council was sworn
in Monday night by Clerk of Court
Spann.
The first business of the council
was to go into an election of officers
with the following result:
Clerk?E. B. Roof.
Treasurer?J. W. Long.
Xightwatchman and Limplighter.
?Cbarles A Geiger.
Corporation Counsel?EG rd &
Dreher.

out this purpose there will be two
noliremen for un town and one for
factory hill.
It is also proposed to enforce the
dispensary law strictly, Mid hot times
are ahead for blind tigers and all who
engage in the illicit sale of whisky.
Oar streets will also receive the
attention of our "city fathers," and
it is thought that the red hill leading

to the residence of Mr. J. H. Meetze
will receive immediate attention.
The Dispatch will shortly commence

people may see what is expected of

The $250,000 Appropriation?The
Big Ducking Mills, and Other
Matters.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Now that Senator B. R. Tillman
has secured an appropriation of $250,000
to open the Congaree liver and
give us steamboat navigation to the
bridge, Brookland as well as Columbia
is rejoicing upon the coming of

beavy and lusty steam whistle of the
boats as tbey come in and anchor at
our wharves on the banks of the Congaree
right in the heart of the Town
of Brookland.
Several times in the past committees
were sent to Washington, and
through our members in the National
A-ssembly, CoDgress has been importuned
to give us the money to do
this great work, but without success.
To ihe untiring zeal and energy of
the Hon. B. R. Tillman for the best
nterests of the State of South Caroina
belongs the credit of this quarter
nillion dollars appropriated by Congress
to be spent here for the openng
up of an invaluable and endless
benefit in which every citizen of the
State will share. Tillman is a power
n the land, the force of which is felt
ind known by every sensible member
n CoDgress, and our old State owes
lim a debt of gratitude that should
lever be forgotten.
THE BIO DUCKING MILLS.
No conception of the magnitude of
his great mill, and the silent, invisible,
and great power of electricity,
:an be had, except by going through
bese mills. C. K. Oliver is the gen
?ral manager, A. S. J. Bowersox general
supeiintendent; W. A. Moody
jverseer cloth room: Robert David
>ver No. 1 weave room; J. C. Kirhy
)ver No. 2 weave room; W.M.Brown

jver spinning room: J. F. Mimsover
iwisting room; 0. N. Denham over
teaming and warpiDg department;
Joseph Frazure foreman and master
mechanic in machine shops.
Mr. Oliver is a thorough business
nan, and Mr. Bowersox is an up-to3ate
super. These together with the
ibove named superior department
supervisors, work these great mills
with a remunerative efficency. They
ire kind and clever gentlemen and'are
liked by the hundreds of operatives
working under them. The greater
part of these operatives reside in
Brookland and are worthy citizens of
Lexington county, such as are acceptable
and appreciated in every
community of good people.
THE MAGISTRATES OFFICE
Brooklands1 population is now
about 2,000, Columbia say, 30,000,
and every day there is, as in all towns,
more or less friction resulting in
suits at law. This necessitates the
almost continual presence of the
magistrate and complicates the duties
;>f the office. But Magistrate J. H.
Kooq as a just judge and is holding
with steady hand the scales of justice
under the law, and his administration
of the office is very acceptable to
all the good people of his district,
Columbia and other places.
In the near future a more extensive
notice of what is going on in
and around Brookland will be given.
There is a great enterprise here that
very7 few persons know anything
about. Brookland's future possibilities
are matters of interest to the
public, and the more they are known
the sooner will be the dawn of' their
realization. Jake.

Oh, the Pain of
Rheumatism!
Rheumatism often causes the most intense
suffering. M..:;y have for years
vainly sought relief from this disabling
disease, and are to-day worse off than
ever. Rheumatism is n blood disease,
and Swift's Specific is the only euro, because
it is the only remedy which can
reach such deep-seated diseases.
A few years ago I was taken with inflammatory
Rheumatism, which bream." .= > intense

test relief. In fact, my eon.

my guardian, who was a chemist, analyzed
tlie remedy, and pronounced it free of

taking two bottles, that i continued the remedy,and
in two months I was en red completely.
