Wednesday, March 7, 1906.
We are more than pleased to note
the fact that Mr. G. D. Hayes is making
an effort to have the old Augusta
road clayed from the Fair grounds
up to near Sbiloah church, seven
miles. Our citizens of the town are
subscribing liberally and we trust
that the amount necessary may be
| raised by cash, work and hauling of
all concerned, to accomplish the good
work. Nothing adds more to a com
munity than good road?, and we are
? V5
sorry to see that some sections of our
'V ^
county are 60 neglectful concerning
this matter. Just a few weeks ago
Mr. Thomas H. Rawl, an enterprisV
? - ing citizen of Hollow Creek, raised a
sufficient amount to have the "new
cut roed," leading from this place up
in the Peters' section, clayed, and
turned piked. The neighbors re^
sponded fiberally with cash, work
and hauling, and the county chaingang
supplemented the work through
Supervisor LaDgford. And onc9 the
clay and eaod becomes oompact the
people will realize what a great blest1
,
ing has been accomplished. And in/
.
|gg?r stead of ploughing through sand
beds worrying stock aDd grinding out
vehicles they will have easy hauling
driveing\
OVIM o
Tbe work of the Augusta rood
should be oontinued until every foot
has been clayed or sanded from Lexington
to Lsesville and tbence to
Batesburg. Let tbose citizens branch
l out and meet tbe work in this direction
until tbe whole line has been
put in proper condition.
Lexington county is behind her
sister counties in the matter of gdod
roads .and* our people must go to
work to keep up with the van.
Some enterprising and progressive
citizens along tbe Orangeburg road
Bbould fall in lin6 and start up this
good road work, for no section needs
clay roads worse than this. It is a
long worrysome drive for the citizens
of Swansea, Pelion, &o,even to think
of it muob, less the tireeome trip
They are justly entitled to some recognition,
and know doubt would
willingly contribute their share of
inararria havinc better and

attorneys will take the matter before
tbe Supreme Court by a writ of
certiorari.

tbe creation of the new U S. judicial
in this State appears to grow

p lighter roads. With good clayed
roads and the telephone line to Edmund,
Macedon, Pelion, thence across
to the cross roads to Swansea, we
will have a happy united people.

The house committee on agriculture
has struck out the appropriation
for the purchase of seed to be sent
out by the congressmen this year.
Every Southern member opposed the
catting out of the appropriation, on
the ground that it furnished to the
farmer one of the few direct benefits
from the treasury of Uocle Sam.
Thus our people need not be dis
appointed in not receiving packages
of garden and field seeds this season
This is a great calamity to our members
of congress as many citizens felt
complimented in receiving seeds.
Mayor Floyd, of Spartanburg is
W making
it rather unpleasant for the
blind tigers who come up before bim.
He has been puttiog on a fine of one
hundred dollars or thirty days on tbe
gang. This is a good way to keep
down the violations. And tfhen the
days are given without the dollars
the number will perhaps grow still
smaller. Tbe "gentlemen tigers"
would not enjoy a number of dsys on
the public works.
The State board of canvassers
heard argument in the Laurens dispensary
election case Wednesday and
they decided that though there were
minor irregularities, tbe election was
valid. However the dispensary forces,
who were defeated in the election,

Two Minutes
J Physicians tell us that all
j the blood in a healthy
| human body passes through
j the heart once in every two
minutes. If this action becomes
irregular the whole
body suffers. Poor health
follows poor blood ; Scott's
Emulsion makes the blood
pure. One reason why
SCOTT'S
EMULSION
is such a great aid is because
it passes so quickly into
the blood. It is partly diJ
gested before it enters the J
stomach; a double advantage
in this. Less work
for the stomach; quicker '
and more direct benefits.
To get the greatest amount
of good with the least possible
effort is the desire of
everyone in poor "health.
|'^Scott's Emulsion docs just j
that. A change for the i
better takes place even be- !
fere you expect it.

by Gen. W. W. Dudley, of Washington,
who makes a specialty of these
contest cases. Lever is represented
by Mr. B. Hart Moses, cf Orangeburg,

Mr. J. W. Biuer, section director
of the weather bureau service at Columbia,
has received instructions to
#
discontinue crop bulletins, but the
weather bureau will continue its
weekly bulletins of the weather. The
crop feature was interesting to some,
afcd they will regret its failure to appear
hereafter.
It really looks now as if recent
complications in China will bring

en route.
