W LETTER FROM CHESTER.
Correh-pomk-iicc nf the York villi? I'miuiirr.
W Chester, August G.?Dixie Warren, a
section master on the Chester and Cheraw
Narrow Gauge railroad, was drowned in
Catawba river on last Thursday. The
river was up ami young Warren, at the
time of the accident, had been engaged in
keeping off floating obstructions from the
1 railroad bridge. It is said that young
Warren, who was but a boy, was sitting
on a timber out in the river, and seeing a
tin cup floating by reached out to get it,
but lost his balance and fell into the stream.
^ The current bore him rapidly down, and
B he sank, after swimming a short distance,
below the bridge.
Mr. It. G. Hilt, of Augusta, Ga., was
F here last week to see what the prospect
B was for getting up a cotton compress here.
J Mr. Ilitt said that he had recently purm
chased, at a bargain, the old Charlotte
T compress which had been erected in that
[ town some years ago by a stock company.
1 After the Richmond and Danville Railroad
company built a compress themselves,
the other one no longer paid its
proprietors, and consequently was sold
out. Mr. Hitt's proposition to the business
men of Chester was that he would bring
the machinery here and put it up if an
advance of $5,000 should be made, as a
loan.
The convention of road overseers recently
called by the county commissioners, met
at the court house yesterday morning at
i 10.30, J. Wesley Wilks, chairman of the
* board of county commissioners, in the
chair.
Representative F. L. Whitlock was the
first speaker. Mr. Whitlock began by
* reading the road law, expounding briefly
as he went along. After reading over carefully
the general statute, the speaker then
proceeded to comment briefly thereon.
The condition of the roads of a country
furnished a good test of the country's condition.
The time alotted by law, twelve
I days, was longenough, and the law is very
simple in its requirements. If the law was
fho hl?mp must he with I
IKM VICirvil ?Vj 11IVXI VMV ...?
I thoso to whom the execution of the law
W was entrusted.
* Hon. Giles J. Patterson next took the
l floor. Mr. Patterson first wanted to know
i * whether the minimum of time required,
r three days, wasgiven to the roads throughout
the county. Mr. Wilks answered in
the negative. Mr. Patterson then proceeded
to argue that a road, like a chain,
was judged by its weakest or worst part.
If a twelve mile stretch of road is badly
worked the good work done on the other
section was in a sense cancelled, as a farmer
k could not haul over the whole road more
& than he could over the worst part. Air.
Patterson thought that each overseer
should sub-divide his hands and put them
under sub-overseers.
Capt. It. T. Mock bee followed. The
road law was all right; the trouble was
with the enforcement. Whether the trouR
ble was with the county commissioners or
W the overseers, he could not say. A public
* road, leading into Chester and near town,
had not been worked for ten months. The
average time given a year to a road was
really less than one good day's work.
The custom usually was to give about half
a day to the roads in the spring and half a
day in the fall. If two dollars for every
man liable to road duty was expended this
year for labor on the roads, more work
x would be done than has been done for five
years. The law was all right. The people
needed to be educated up to the en^
forcement of it.
Four-fifths of the audience knew of violations
of the law against concealed weapons,
yet no reports were made to the grand
jury. The people must be brought up to
report violations of the road law, and every
other law.
S. W. Guy, took the floor. He admitted
that twelve days work would put all
roads in good condition, but he did not
like a law that bore unequally on different
men. Air. Guy mentioned two roads
in the county, oneof which did not require
a day's work a year to keep it in excellent
fix ; the other would not be a good
rf\arl with tu-olun finvo' wnrlr TflP nitPra
tions of the law bore unequally on those
in the two sections, if a good road was
the requirement. Shovels also were badly
needed. Mr. Guy favored a road tax.
Jas. Darby thought the trouble was all
with the people in not supporting the overseers
and commissioners. Mr. Patterson
| said in regard to the unequal burdens imL
posed, mentioned by Mr. Guy, that the
only remedy would be a general tax, and
that no such tax would be acceptable to the
& people. The improvement of the roads
W increased the value of land, and it was
to the interest of landholders to keep up
good roads. Mr. Guy thought that if this
was so, then the land owner ought to pay,
by a tax, for keeping up the roads to a good
condition.
Capt. Mockbee said that the negro ought
to do a big share of the road work, as they
ipaid but little tax in return for the benefits
they derive from the government.
The only amendment necessary was oue
authorizing the commissioners to furnish
tools. Tennessee had a like experience.
They worried with a similar law a long
time. The people waked up on this question.
The law was made more stringent
in regard to road officials requiring enforcement.
Farmers' clubs took up the
matter; improved road machines were
bought; men turned out with wagons and
teams to haul gravel, until a revolution was
wrought.
Col. E. T. Atkinson thought the county
commissioners ought to push the overseers
up more closely, and seemed to
think that the non-enforcement of the law
, lay mainly at their door.
Mr. llarry Wylie wanted to know the
legal width of a road. Mr. Patterson replied
that a few leading roads to Charles>
ton, Columbia, Hamburg, and perhaps
other "market" towns, were required 30
' feet. Mr. S. J. Lewis spoke on the tool
question, showing that it would cost over
a thousand dollars to buy the shovels
wanted.
^anofAr Poffor^nn fKnn tor?L- thn 41 r\f\y (to
the regular speaker on "amendments necessary
to the law." Only two slight
amendments were in order ; one to fix the
commutation tax on a sliding scale so
that a man might pay only for as many
days' work as his section of the road got;
the other to fix the number of hours for a
' day's work on the road.
A general discussion followed, participated
in bv Harry Wvlie, Mac Price,
Win. McNeill, W. \V. Stokes, J. M. Mcfiarity,
Jas. Darby, S. W. Guy, J. K.
Henry, ... Guthrie,* Jno. Hamilton, 1}. A.
Grant, JesseII. Hardin, James G. White,
S. J. Lewis, It. H. Neely, Peter Hollis,
T. II. Lucas and F. L. Whitlock.
During the progress of this debate, a
vote was taken condemning the purchase
of shovels by the county, to be turned over
to the overseers; also, another vote adopting
two resolutions offered by Senator
Patterson, approving the idea of a State j
road congress, and calling on the county i
commissioners to appoint delegates to the
same, if the idea matured.
During the course of this discussion many
suggestions and criticisms were made, for
W example: That a short stretch of accesf
sible road should be worked on scientific
principles as an object lesson to all overseers;
that much work done by shovels
should be done by scrapers attached to
double foot plows; that a complete system
of record blanks should be kept by overseers,
showing number of handsliable, who
worked, how long, etc.; that mules ought
to be warned out just like men; that too
many little bridges were charged to the
county that the overseers and hands should
repair; that culverts of rock might be
used in places.
Aftercontinuing in session until 2o'clock, j
the convention, whose attendance had been j
remarkably full all throughout the session,
adjourned to meet on the first Monday in |
August, 181)0.
* The survivors' association of the Sixth
regiment, at its annual re-union, held in i
Winnsboro last week, decided to run an
excursion to Petersburgh, Va., on the

Several weeks have elapsed since ourRoai
Cart oiler first made its appearance. Wo ar
gratified to stato that our friends are apprecia
ting, in a substantial way, our proposition.
Our cart is called the "Corbin" and is manu
factured by the same company that manufac

Read what the "Bugle,*' published at Couv
erneur, N. Y., says about the Corbin Roai
"Roiul Carts in ondless number ami variot;
have flooded tho market, but there is only on
Corbin Cart. It is much lighter than the aver
ago cart, and exceedingly simple in construe
tion. Its continuous spring and T steel axl
appeals to the common sense of buyers."
The Farm Implement News, published ii
New York, says:
"The lighter vehicles have received consider
ation at the hands of Mr. Corbin. Not satisfiei
with tho clumsy appearance and intolerab!
horse motion on the average road cart, Mr, C
has brought out a light, (it weighs 100 pounds
airy Cart with T axles, and continuous spring
formed like the letter S, as the cut fully illus
trates."
We now have one of these carts on oxhibi
tion, and will be pleased to have all who dosir
to do so to call and examine it.

. Making Preparations for Oibi
Fall and Winter Stoek !
A NOTIIKR season is upon lis. The suml\.
mor is nearly past and tlio Juno-bug'*
buz/ is liushcd; tlio Hies are making ready tc
withdraw their presence from strugglinghumanity
and escape the wrath of winter. Wc
are pi I i 11^ the last remnants of a tremendous
stock ofStinimergoodson a little counter, to he
sold at the mercy of the purchaser, preparatory
to receiving and marking the largest stock
of winter eumiind, diticss tioons,
MILLINERY, SHOES, IIATS, etc., that wc
have ever handled. A great many of these
goods have already been bought and will he
j in store in the next few days ready for marki
ing. We, however, will have to visit the North
; crn markets about the middle of September tc
catch the novelties of the day and to better prepare
ourselves and get tlio latest ideas in
j I)ItESS- MAKINO and Ml LLINERY.
j Our business of tlio past season has been full
! of pleasant experiences, and wo fool satisfied
: that our efforts have been fully appreciated
1 by our numerous customers, and that each
; and everyone of tlieni sayed money by buying
! of us. At the beginning of the season wo hung
| our banner on the outer wall saying to all lion|
est men. that: "PROMPT PAYMENT IS
ESSENTIAL TO A HOOD CREDIT!" And
j wo say now to all who have bought goods of us
UNIlKIt Til K AllOVK M K NT I ON KD 11ANNKR, that
| we sold them goods as low as tlioy could
have been purchased under any circumstances,
without regard to the claims of tlio "Oreal
Hash bugaboo" which undoubtedly has gained
some reputation throughout the State, and ir
the entire South.
Our business is wholly our own, and wo have
never vet felt that we were incapacitated tc
manage it, nor have wo ovor felt-that wo did
not have tlio right to sell goods with or without
a profit; nor have we over felt that we were
compelled to adopt the cash or credit systemone
to the exclusion of the other ; but we have
always contended and still maintain the right
to say to whom we will sell goods on credit.
Never in our lives havo wo insulted a prompt
paying credit customer when it was in our
provinceto extend tlio courtesy askod, for we
know only too well the pangs of remorso that
pierce tlio heart of the honest struggler for the
bare substantials of this world. Some men
will pay; there are others who won't?and it
is our business privilege in behalf of our family
to say whom we will credit and whom wt
will not credit.
And as for the losses brought about through
the channels of the credit system, except when
merchants conduct their business recklessly
with the HOPE of not losing their profit, there
is very little danger of sustaining more loss by
the credit than the cash system.
Wo suppose that this can be explained to the
satisfaction of somo by the following:
An Israelite doing business in a rural district
of New York said one day that he mado his
tnonoy on the Cash part of his business, foi
"ho hnf to sell coods too cheap von ho sell on
credit, so dat he don't loose so much von de
customer doantpay, ain't it."
We have only ono price, and that the lowest,
and wo say tliaL we will sell goods as low as
they can bo retailed anywhere in the United
States. Remember this?we moan it.
It is impossible for us to enumeratoour 9tock
of Fall Goods, for only a little more than hall
are bought, and we havo only outlined the rest
but our stock of Clothing is bought, and probably
before this announcement reaches you
it may be in our house. And a dandy stock of
Clothing it is, and wo can say to those who are
interested, that it surpasses, in every particular,
every stock of Clothing we ever handled,
and Clothing is a specialty in our business and
no ono doubts our judgment in this line.
We repeat tho announcement that wo made
in the Spring that wo will furnish conveyance
from tho Charleston, Cincinnati and Chicago
depot to our store and return, free of charge,
provided wo arc previously notified by postal
card. Wo havo tho carriage and if you will
notify us it will bo at your servico.
Now, in conclusion, wo would say that we
propose to conduct a live, engergotic, aggressive
business, and if good goods and low prices
aro meritorious, our business will be enormous.

Proprietor of the Ua/.aar.

DOBSON'S RACKET STORE
IS IX FULL IILAST. It buys all its goods
for CASH, gets oil" all discounts, and will
not be undersold in anything. I have my buyers
in Now York looking after HARHAINS at
bankrupt and Shoritr.s sales, and where men are
compelled to raise money to meet their paper.
My Auction Ilonso in Now York picks up all
such Bargains. My Auction House picked up
a large lot of Blueing at greatly reduced prices,
and, as I always drink with 1113' customers, I
am selling it to them at the unheard of price of
1 cent a Box.
SODA.
Another big bargain wont on the market un
(lor tho sheriffs hammor in tho slnipo ot auu
pounds of Soda, which whs shipped to me, and
i at onco placed it on tho market at f> cents a
pound: nearly 100 por cent, lower than it was
selling.
SOAP.
Anothor largo sale of SOAPS under tho ham*
mor was made, anil I no! my divide, which was
f>00 pounds, and am giving it to my customers
at ahout one half its value?two Cakes for 5
1 cents ; worth 10 cents.
BLACKING.
i
' Tho biggest Bargain over offered in York;
villo is a largo quantityof BLACKING bought
. from my Auction House and selling at 1 cent a
. Box ; largo size, two for 5 cents. Nothing like
. it was oyer offered so low. So you see, no matter
how low I buy, I sell It at lie percent, and let
1 my friendsshare with me. Nothing has caused
; such a racket as theso tremendous give-away
I prices.
TOBACCO.
' I havo also secured a big bargain in TOBACi
CO, on which my Racket prices are telling.
None like it in town, and given up by all who
. have seen it to be tho best in York at 20 plugs
I for $1.00.
! KERR'S THREAD.
I have mndo a big hand in KERR'S BLACK
THREAD at auction, which is worth 4f> cents
at the mills. I can put on my profit and sell it
; to you at 3 cents a Spool, or 30 cents a dozen,
warranted to havo 2(H) yards on a Spoon, and
which is now selling at 5 cents a Spool overv!

! I havo been running a RACKET STORE
' sinco tho 14th of March under tho name of

i not seem to understand that it means low
prices. Soin future 1 will call it DOBSON'S
: RACKET STORE, and it surely will make a
big Racket at the above prices given. Cash
1 across the counter is what makes tho rackot and
' the low prices. Cash is what says I can get a
! good Brogan at Dobson's Rackot Store at !)9
cents, and Cash says I can buy a Lady's Button
Shoe at Dobson's Racket Store for$l.l(i
SHOES.
i ZEIGLER'S SHOES are now on my shelves
for a little less monoy than ovor before sold at

give our customers the great benefit of this
