the Leesvilie News in a recent issue
took occasion to criticise the officials
of Lexington county in a general way,
without calling names, except in the
case of the county treasurer, who it
criticises because that official, in the
discharge of his dn^y, some weeks ago
drew oat the fands deposited in the
Leesvilie banks?a very insignificant
sum?-in favor of the Lexington Savings
Bank, so that he might have the
money at hand to pay off the railroad
bonds of the three townships in the
"Dutch Fork, which fell due on the first
day of July. Is there anything wrong
about that? As a matter of coarse,
this money belonged to the people of
the Dutch Fork, a ad if anybody?if
any bank?had a right to kick it was
the Bank of Chapin, located in the vicinity
where this money belonged.
Not a word of protest, however, has
come from the officials of this bank,
and, so far as we know, the banks of
Leesvilie and Batesburg made no eom^
plaint.
The greater amount of this money
accrueiLg from the bonds, had been

Bask for several weeks drawing inter
e9t as the rate of five per cent., the
interest being given to the people of
the Pork by the county treasurer.
The News beasts of the fact that
Leesville "is the richest and most populous
section of the county," which is
well enough, and nc one rejoices over
thewonderful prosperity of this section
more than The Dispatch.
The statement of The News that
the "section south of Leesville
wouldn't know the ehaingang if they
/ would see it and wouldn't k^ow the
supervisor if it wouldn't oe for election
years," is as ludiorort9 as it is absurd.
The News knows, ?>r at least it
should know if it kno?vs anything,
that it is a physical impossibility for
the ehaingang to work on all of the
roads at the same time and that it
would be a useless and extravagant
expenditure of the people's money to
attempt to move tbo ehaingang continuously
from ojte section of the
county to another. The New9 knows
full well that it Is the intention of the
supervisor to m^ve the chaiogi'fg *
tbo snnthwAatorn Twrfc of the nonntv
as boor as possible. Be patient, contemporary;
all things come to those
who wait.
