EE DETERMINED
Multitude of People Need Strong
Resolution to Succeed.
(I'or the Yorhville ICnipiirer)
What the multitude of the people!
who populate the world need most is a ;
strong determination to succeed.
These are those who liecom*' faint-j
hearted and give up when I he lirsl :
obstacle presents itself and drag along
in despair. The person who permits j
the little things to overcome him today j

essentials in the world today, if We j

horn to luxury. The majority of the
lianas that adorn the puires of thej
history of a nation wire cradled and|
nourished in the lap of poverty.
It was by a slrnnjc determination I
and lixed purpose licit they won. We j
wonder why we are always Ki ttinif diseoiiraueil
ami down-hearted. We need j
only look within ourselves and behold
that lack of conliiletiec in our

registered vigorous protests with the
delegation in regard to high taxation.

111 we should l?c a pruning "f expenses
wherever possible. The only expression
from the delegation in regard, to I
the high tax rale came from Senator-!
elect Hart, presiding, who stated that j
while lie was in favor of reducing the
levy as much as possible he would not .
agree to milling down the revenues]
being raised for the support of the!
rural schools. \Y. T. Bcnntgunrd. .1. I*..
Ford. Sam M. Crist, .1. E. Howry, Jack
Myers. S. (!. Myers. J. S. Briee, Esq.,
and Magistrate M. L. A. Smith addressed
tin- delegation on various matters.
Wants Road Changes.
\Y. T. Meamguard, chairman of the j
King's Mountain Township road com- j
mission, asked the delegation for the
passage of an act making the road ;
through the village of Filbert between i
Yorkville and Clover the official North
road of I he county. Mr. Meamguard's I
argument was that the state highway!
commission had designated the road j
past Filbert as the North road and was]
working on it nr^w. I'mler the Stewart I
iaw I he old Lincoln road past the resi- ;
donee of H. \Y. Witherspoon was or-;
lieially recognized hy the county as the '
>iTin man, iimi minify wuum in*
by i:i:niiiK tlii.s road over li> the totvn-[
ship supervisor fur maintenance with !
tin1 underst.iudin;? that rnu.st of the
. iitiuly I'liinls iro tu the Filbert roail as 1
tin* North load.
Mr. I <-am;ruard also wanted some!
kind of legislation to >;ovorn the size \
loads that automobile trucks he allow- j
t d to haul over the roads. A North:
Carolina truck hauling from t!0 to Sn j
cross ties at a load on the road lie-t
twei-n It'-lhany and Clover has in the
past few weeks done thousands of dollars
of damme- to that road, he said.
If some restrictions are not put tin the
hia triieks it will he impossible to
maintain the stood roads of Kind's
.Mountain township, he said.
Bethel Roads.
.lesso It. I'onl of Melhel township
wanted the Lincoln, road past the
Withers: place to remain as the of.
i
lirial North road, lie also asked the
delegation to provide funds fur I lie j
maintsiin.ance of the Clover-Wright's
Kerry road which splits i Set lad tmvn-j
ship. It was over this road that most
people would have to travel to get to .
tin- Inidire over tin* fulnwhsi that York
an<l Aleeklenhtir.tr roiinliis an* iroint? to
1 i ;I<I in draw trade to Charlotte, Tin*
township supervisor. .Mr. l-'ord said,
had heeii s|icndin>t vm-v III tie money
oa this road. 1l' l'ethel township
could act her .sharo of tlti* automobile
tax money it would an far toward the
mnintnancc of this road, lie said.
.1. S. I h ire. Ksi|.. reported that the
Turkey t "reek drainane commission
had completed its work and had it surplus
of funds remaining, lie wanted
the delegations of York and Chester
counties to pass an act aliowiutr tinpeople
in the drainage district to pay
tiu-ir drainatrc (sixes for ll'Ju out or
the funds on hand instead of amitiirr
nssrssment for the past year. This the
Icii-sration will do.
.Mr. I Sri ailed attention to the far: ;
that iiethiii.ir definite had ever hern
done hy the commissioners of York and
.Meeklenhtira cotinlies in n-trard to the
1 ?iiIdi:i*.r of a luidpv over Catawha

Too Many Road Bosses.
"Sii-.-iUiny to yi'tt pullctiu-n of tin-'
Icl.-mtimi ,'s n private citizen," said
Me. I trice. "I think you oiti;lil to consider
your road law sonic. We have in
tins county loo many road Worses and
too many road commissions. I'mlcr tin

diin'l know what is West hut it appears
o m - licit instead of ail these com-|
missions one commission would be

.Mr. I trice .-aid that there was much

Coiim-lIsvilIc (ir cither points because of
| the bud condition of the roads they
are inclined to cuss somebody," lie
said.
I
Favors New Government Plan.
Sam M. Grist urged the delegation
to adopt the Lancaster plan of county
government. Experience had proven, I ]
he said that the Lancaster county plan J
was the most economical and efficient <
form. The plan is to appoint a commission
of good business men who
shall appoint an engineer and other
assistants and manage the affairs or
the county as they would manage their i
own business. j (
Mr. Grist said that this plan was in !(
practice in Darlington and Marlboro i j
counties also and that they were ins,
charge of nvn who were not politicians <
and who had not political interests. |
lie believed that tho plan would work j
ill l ni'K cnumy ii uiu uuii'Ki.iuuii mm j j
"the nerve to try it." |
Would Discharge Agents. t
J. K. Lotvry told the delegation that j ?
as a tax payor ho. wanted to raise a I '
general kick against high taxes. "We <
want you to do all the trimming possl- 1
ble this year," he told the delegation, r
lie suggested that the services of the t
county farm demonstration agent, the I
woman .-> home demonstration agent
and the compulsory attendance officers
be dismissed as a starter. j 1
Jack Dyers of Bcthesda township i
was of the opinion that there were a >
number of unnecessary officers in -the i
county. Mr. Dyers said that there were j
two many incompetents in the employ s
<..* the state highway commission. Ho i
thought that Superintendent of Education
Carroll and the school trustees 11
could enforce the compulsory school j i
attendance law. There was no need for j .>
the farm demonstration agent and the i (
woman's home demonstration agent, j S
Me was in favor uf fewer officers and I c
better officers. j (
S. C. Dyers favored the kicking out j i
of ilit* stale tax commission and lotting j i
the local boards of equalization do thcl
work'.
J. S. Briee, Esq., suggested the! l
enactment of a state law making uni- i 1
form the fees of the clerk of the court j r
and fixing those fees rather than re- ; i
quiring the clerk to do it. He also j c
favored a uniform method of satisfy- j j
ing mortgages, the present method! r
which is different in most of the court- j
ties, being rather slipshod. <
Would Put Them on Gang, f
Magistrate R. L. A. Smith of Broad 1
Rivet* wanted the compulsory education
laws so amended that when per-!1
sons wore lined for not sending their j(
children to school they would have to 1
pay those tines. As matters stand now.' 1
there is no way to force a convicted j
parent or guardian to pay the fine im- ; '
posed by the magistrate. The magis- j *
irate'also wanted the liquor laws so;1
amended that any person found at a j '
distillery would be as guilty under the 1
law as the man making liquor. He j
wanted I lie law changed so as to | 1
provide for :i chaingang sentence of j ^
two years for the first conviction on j r
charges of handling lifiuor. Ho would
leave no alternative of a fine.

HAD MANY PRISONERS
Jailer Had Ninety-two Guests Last
Year.
30ND IS NOW HARD TO OBTAIN
Charges Ranged From Murder to Larceny?Liquor
Law Violators and
Housebreakers In Majority?Eight
Lunatics Held In Jail During the
Year. 4
Sheriff Fred E. Quinn, who is also
he jailer for York county, had a total
>f ninety-two "quests" at the jail durng
the year 1020, according' to a com
>ilation made this morning by The
I'orkville Enquirer. In addition to the
Prisoners held in the jail for alleged of' nses
against the state of South Carolina.
there were several Federal prisoners
in iho jail serving sentences during
he year and a number of prisoners
. ommitted by policemen of the town of
i'orkville. Most of these latter were
Trunks who spent a night and left the
ie.\t morning carrying a hang-over
nore or less severe, all dependent upon
lie quality of the liquor that they had
jeen drinking.
Miscellaneous Offenses.
Prisoners committed to jail during
1920 were charged with offenses rangng
from murder to using livestock
.vithout the consent of the owner. Durng
the year eight lunatics were held in
all for a few days until they could be
egularly committed to the state hos>ital
for tho insane in Columbia.
V.'liile ninety-two is quite a large
lumber of prisoners the number pales
nto insignificance as compared with
iomc of Hie other counties of South
Carolina notably Greenville, Anderson,
Spartanburg. Charleston and Richland
:ounties. There were only three prison;rs
committed to jail during the year
n charges of murder, the smallest
lumber perhaps in recent years.
Many Liquor Law Violators.
Prisoners committed to jail during
920 011 charges of housebreaking and
arceny equaled in number those comnitted
on charges of violation of the
iquor laws. There were seventeen of
>ach. Of course liquor charges were
referred during the year against a
nucli larger number than seventeen
ersons; but in all instances except
seventeen, the defendants managed to
jive bond and thus escaped a sojourn
it the county hotel.
The number of persons charged with
issault and battery with intent to kill:ame
next sifter the liquor law violai?rs
and the housebreakers. They were
ifteen in number.
Three prisoners charged with car
jreaklng were committed during the
ear. and two prisoners were commlt,cd
on charges of receiving stolen
roods. Three were charged with obit
ining money on false pretense
One prisoner was committed during
ho year on a charge of passing a
worthless check. There were two comnitments
on charges of rape.
Few Pistol Toters.
Xot many pislol toters had to go to
ail for that offense last year, the jail
eeord showing that there were only
wo commitments where that offense
vas charged.
One prisoner was charged with a
nisrtomeanor; two wore held on charges
if assault. One negro was arrested
mil convicted during the year for puting
rocks in a bale of cotton.
There wore nine commitments on
barges of petit larceny.
Men stuck to their wives pretty well
11 York county last year. The record
iliows that there was only one prisoner
n the jail during the year on charges
f abandonment of wife.
Bond Hard to Obtain.
Most of those prisoners arrested in
he early months of the year, notably
n the spring and summer, had no
rouble in obtaining bond and in most
nstanees were released after being in
lie custody of the sheriff a few days.
Hut in the fall conditions changed
uul bond was not so ensly obtainable;
Hie to the financial tightening up all
ilong the line.
The sheriff starts the year 1921 with
ibout eight prisoners in his charge and
ndications are that they are going to
villain in his custody until their cases
ire disposed of through the courts.
Yw people just now are in need of
lands and there are numerous people
vho have no idea when they will need
lands; therefore it is no easy matter
tinis!,, who have fallen into the toils
if the law to find bondsmen.
