Wednesday, December 23,1903. - I We have been talking bridge for some time and now it looks like s bridge in reality. The engineers bare been makiDg preliminary surreys of the most suitable places for the proposed bridge across Saluda river, and have submitted their plans and specifications, ranging in price, from $9,500 to $12,000. The plans ean be seen either at the Clerk of Court's office or County Commission-ers office. We have been sounding the sentiments of our people in various sections of oar county and really find no opposition to the building of this "bridge. It is an actual necessity, and one that would add unttld ad vantage and benefit to tbe county. Besides it can be built so easily that no one could ol iect. Axlevy of one * mill or less for three years would be ample to meet all expenses, and our f>eople would thus pay for the bridge' and scarcely know it. No need for bonds or interest to meet tbe expense. We trust that tbe proper etepB will be taken in due time. Habans, tbe Cuban capital went wild with joy when tbe news of the passage of the reciprocity bill at Washington, was bulletined at tbe adloes of tbe leading morning papers, on tbe 18th inst., and shortly after when the Cabanas fortress began to boom forth a national salote of 21 .guns, the Habana Municipal band playing in tbe Central park struck *ip tbe American national anthem, while?to tbe surprise of some?the Stare and Stripes of the United States was seen to flutter in tbe moonlight from grim old Morro Castle, and there it waved until tbe last gun was fired, bespeaking Cuba's gratitude to tbe United States.

This is noble and vznanfoi in them and we wibh them <r prosperity and an abundance of * sueeass. If there is anything that v we dislike, it is the idea of unfriendly * 'J^ffxapjTvfcefcween newspaper men. It now looks like Russia ard Japan will engage is war, while the United States will get into a "scrap'' with the Colombian government over 4be PaDama question. Our guu'fcoals, torpedo boats; cruisers, and transports are prspating for busi cess and now pretty eoon sometDing may happen. Colombian soldiers have landed forces at different points, while our marines and soldiers are moving and keeping watch ever the situation. The committees report of the Wade Hampton monument is about ready, and the legislature will be informed that $5,000 of the necessary | $10,000 has been paid. The new Williamsburg bridge j across East river, at New York City j which has been in course of struc- j tare for about tea years, is now | open for passage. i t I * v I People who never saw a cotton field are making millions out cf cotton.

Mr. Stuck fell on a cross-cut saw, which cut hie chin and mouth badly. The child was not hurt. The people of this section like the new schedule on the Southern and many of them have taken advantage of the opportunity to spend a day in Columbia without being compelled to spend the night also.
